Hey Aaron,
Don't get discouraged about the Berry. Some days are like that. I also used to move around a lot and found that I spent a lot more time moving around than fishing. We started just staying put more often and found out that eventually the fish do come around. Don't get me wrong, if I sit there for 3 hours, I eventually will move or go home, but for the most part, we stay put. We were at the Berry today (Feb 3) and we didn't see hardly ANY fish on the finder...until they were on our hook on the way up! They were all on the bottom out of site on the fishfinder. We ended up with 22, 2 of which were over the slot...we missed a lot more than that. A school would swim thru about every 20 minutes or so (we saw the schools on the finder when they came thru), and in between the schools a few singles would show up. During the schools, we sometimes had doubles on.
Way to salvage the trip at Jordanelle!

I used to N.ot have E.nough T.ime O.ff to go fishing. Then I retired. Now I have less time than I had before. Sheesh.
