It was all said tongue in cheek, like the way you’re supposed to fish. 😂

Hey Greg. You've already got the whole situation licked. Just read you're last line of your post.

Plug chewing tobacco is made by pressing together cured tobacco leaves in a sweet (often molasses-based) syrup. Originally this was done by hand, but since the second half of the 19th century leaves were pressed between large tin sheets. The resulting sheet of tobacco is cut into plugs.

1) Since early May I've been to 8 different locations, all excellent for fishing and caught no fish or ones so small they had to be released.
2) I've tried worms, different sized minnows and artificial lures. None have worked.
3) I've fished early morning and evening with zero results.
4) I've adjusted my bobber to different depths and my presentation of the bait.
5) I've talked to local bait shops and followed their suggestions with little to zero results.
6) My friend Bear bought a Fish Finder which apparently does everything but find fish.
7) I upgraded from 4lb test to 10lb test. Yesterday, something snapped my 10lb test line in about 3 seconds. (The drag was adjusted).
8.) I've fished up and down the shoreline at many locations with zero results.
9.)I've fished in cool and hot weather with no results.
10.)I haven't fished regularly in 40 years and just started two months ago which may prove I have no clue what I'm doing.

Despite the results, I do enjoy what goes with it.

Did you have fun? That’s all that counts. Henry Thereau said most men who go fishing don’t realize that they are not ding so to catch fish. A true statement. It’s the experience. The time away from everything else. The greater peace.

Not every baseball player hit .325 or 40 home runs but they keep coming back.
The important thing is that you are enjoying yourself.

The learning is the fun part. Catching tons of fish most of the time gets to loose its' luster.
Spending quality fishing time with others becomes more enjoyable.
