A big zero on Clinton.
Was out on Clinton Reservoir today and nothing doing. We trolled for trout about 3 hours down 20 feet on lead core, flat line. Spinners, Binskys, spoons, Rapalas. 4 lines in the water, 2 on planer boards and nada. We then drifted for 2 hours with a worm on a slip bobber, free lined shiner and casted too. We were marking plenty of fish down 10-20 feet but nothing was biting even though we tried to keep our lure in that zone.
For the last hour switched to our bass rods and tried chatterbaits, jigs, suspending jerkbaits, spinnerbaits, dropshot plastics and still nothing.
If it's any consolation nobody else we spoke with either fishing on shore or by boat caught a thing.
It was freakin cold out there when the wind picked up but a beautiful day to be on the water, so it was still a successful trip.
