Re: new melonies tough

Last time we were there,(a few weeks) the fish were right on the bottom and didnt mark many of the fish we caught unless they would follow up our offering off the bottom . Then we usually could catch them once we saw them. My thought is that you were fishing too shallow!! Try deeper!
