That would be the time I would cast a jig under a weighted float to cover some water . As hot as it has been lately no wind would be a deal breaker for me
Fishing almost everyday bring a lot of different challenges to say the least, that’s what helps you become a better angler, if you can figure it out. Those no wind days with humble you, I still caught about 20 crappie or so, but not like I usually catch.
20 is a respectable day in my book
I agree but not all were keepers.
I agree with Jack. I find shade with some cover and hopefully brush and fish with bobbers and minnows along with jigs.
In the past 40yrs or so, I could probably count all the "windless" days on one hand, and probably still have a couple of fingers left uncounted. :Doh:
And even if it was dead calm when I got there, as soon as I started :fish it would no longer be that way. I've even gone from one side of the lake/creek, where it was windy, over to the other side (where it was calm), and no sooner than I got there .... bam, the wind kicks up. :banghead And for some unknown reason, it always seems to want to blow me right into the bank or right on top of where I'm wanting to fish. :scratchhead
Know this for sure .... Ma Nature & the wind gods have gotten a piece of my mind on numerous occasions. :Rofl
that doesn't matter, you were catchin'emQuote:
