I normally don't fish that close to the shoreline. Try out further.

You got to start somewhere's.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an  well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, A fishing pole in one hand, beer in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming \"WOO HOO, what a ride!

ROFLMFAO...Hey Gator, try casting. My son swears it works better than dropping the hook down the hole.  :roflmao:

When I got my AquaVIew it was right at ice out so I couldn't go out and try it out. I put my wife's Beta in the bathtub and turned all the lights out and watched that fish swim back and forth in the tub. She was kinda peaved when she figured oiut what I was doing until she saw it herself and she almose laughed herself to death...

I never have much luck either in man-made impoundments. Next summer, leave the chlorine out and you will have some weedbeds to fish over next winter.

If you can't get a bite over by that structure , try going a little deeper towards the middle of that pond . Usually on that type of pond , the middle is the deepest.

Lone Wolf took your advice and moved into some structure like they say on TV you should always fish in some structure. So I set up the shanty in some structure and going to wait them out what do you think!  8) :tipup:

Gator, i found out that thars no fish in them shallow above ground lakes years ago. I 've done better with the seement deeper ponds. Heck some are even 12 or 13 feet deep. Did land a yellow bikini bottom last year. It was suspended near the slide area at night. It might have been crusing the banks looking for food. I caught it on a BARE mooska jig.




I'll set em up, you guys do the punch lines.
