Man your story is spot on. If I have a problem with fishing, it's sticking with what's not working and not changing things up. I wish I would have read this a week or so ago when I took a day off of work to take my son fishing and they missed the forecast of 6 mph winds, because we had 15 to 20 mph winds all day. I tried spider rigging with everything I could do to control the boat, drift socks ect. Long lining never crossed my mind but it may well have worked. Thanks for a great post.
