Great day fishing, but a disappointing day "catching"...Sorry, no pictures today. :(

Sorry no pictures today. 
The good news is, it was a great day to be on the water. The bad news is, we didn't get any fish. Marked a ton of them, but couldn't find one that wanted to bite.
There was no wind this morning, so there was skim ice everywhere. As it melted we started fishing off of Catawba Point. Marked some big fish, but nothing. 
Headed over to Starve Island, where I had seen cleaner water from a drive around the point from my car the night before. There was too much ice, so I called up my buddy Gary Zart, and he said he had just sat down at Niagra and put two in the boat. He said the ice wasn't bad on the reef, water color was better, and there were only two boats there.
So, we headed over there, cutting through skim ice the entire way... and by the time we got over there there were already 7 or 8 boats trolling the area. We set in and put the lines out (only two of us in the boat, so we could only run four baits).
We made one pass and didn't mark much, so I headed back to Starve thinking that the higher sun might have melted the ice. It did, and the area was fishable, so we set the baits out again. 
We trolled for hours over there marking fish from about 15 foot down to 42 foot down. We were targeting the higher fish. Nada!!
Ugh...thank goodness I had good company in the boat, because it made the disappointment bearable. lol
Looks like we have light winds for the rest of the week, so this mud will dissipate by the weekend.
The next charter is Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, and all I can say is, I'd better start catching some fish!!
It was extremely frustrating today, but at least the cobwebs are being dusted out of my head.
The new Ranger ran like a dream with the ETEC on the back and I'm very very pleased with it. My HBirds need some tweaking, and some wiring looked at, but were not the reason we didn't catch any fish. lol
It was just one of those days.....deep sigh.
We'll get them next time.
