The black jig syndrome

[Ketchn]

could not get a bite , raining and cold ....
tried to get bit and could not make it happen ....got a lil desperate ...never do well on black is me ....but ....
went to a solid black plastic about a million foot deep WAY out in the middle of the lake ....
changed my luck just like that , got bit EVERY cast ....but ....
due to my 7 foot XXTRA light with only 4 lb test on it ....
and a stiff cross wind creating a lot of slack
missed about 3 or 4 per take down ....
just couldn't get solid hooksets with that set up that far away ....
oh well I say ,some beats none ....
KABOOM is near
hooked bass , bluegill and even a catfish too ...
lost one really large bluegill and the catfish ....
not a single crappie in the mix
sometimes it just is what it is ,,,,
40 or less , raining off and on , nice crosswind and right miserable out there , just saying ....
there is some good news , the rain would quit a few minutes here and there and the wind would lay for a few with it , that was the part that was best for sure
and to be VERY sure them images don't even do justice to the conditions that visit ....
