Smithville 5/21/2017- Fishing Apocalypse

Stopped south of the dam in a cove and they were hitting pretty good, nothing but dinks. Moments later the bite shut off and I headed to W bridges. When I got there, holy crap, I was shocked and surprised to see this many people out today. Literally from the dam and all the way down and around the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers were full of anglers. First time ever that I saw it was this packed! It was beautiful! Was there something going on that I wasn't aware about regarding to the fish biting? I'm guessing walleye, seen many reports of those. Caught a catfish on a jig, she was released. Went home with the same fish I came(minnows) with. Attachment 266584
