The last few days a couple friends from work and myself have been fishing that area. I know what you mean about the Vex marking fish, and the fish not biting. It has been nonstop action from 7:45AM to 9:15AM for me, thats when I am catching 75% of my fish, then you really have to work to get the fish to bite, even though the Vex is lit up with fish. What I have been doing that seems to work best for me is I use the Vex to get the jig to the bottom, where it is no longer visible on the Vex. I keep it there and jig disregarding the Vex and watching the spring very very carefully until I later begin to bring it back up, most fish are caught while right on the bottom with a few rising up to take it on the retrieve, been getting alot of fat redears right off the bottom, and a mix of nice gills, also caught some of those green carp, and a baby pike about 12 inches long.
