Fished from big tressel to moormans. Caught bait pretty easy. Had dollar bills and some HUGE gizzards. Fished 4 boards and 2 floats. Boards were about 10 feet deep towards banks and 15 feet deep towards channel. 2 weighted with 1/2 oz and 2 free lined. Floats were about 12-15 feet w/ 1/2oz weight. We caught NOTHING!!! I was marking fish that were mostly deep 25-30 feet. I know that generally this time of year free lines and boards are good w/ no weight. Should I be fishing w/ or w/o weights?? Especially on my boards. Any help would be HUGELY appreciated.

I caught them on down lines, slow drift, over bait balls. Caught 5 total on Sunday. Didnt catch anything on float or bank castin.

I caught my big gizzards in really shallow water. 4-8 feet. The dollar sized gizzards were found on the fish finder. They were down about 15-18 feet.

Sorry just getting back on......I'd see 1 or 2 flip, but mostly blind throwing in the 4-8feet were where the really big gizzards were.
