Well, WalMart was all out of those bluegill swimbaits, so I picked a shad pattern that was similar and headed back to the lake this evening after dinner (and dishes).
I fished all over the place, starting with the spot where I had lost the one last night, of course. Not a single bite.
I started fishing the other side of the lake and I started feeling strikes on my line. Not as hard as those from last night, but it got me excited anyway .... until I realized it was just a bat that was attracted to my line movement. I watched as he flew back and forth hitting my line over and over. You'd think he would have gotten a clue. Apparently not. I started to lift my rod as my bait came in close and he went for my rod tip. Eventually he took off, but as I moved on from that spot the bats just kept coming over to check me out. That was fun to watch.
But no fish. Bummer.
