Ya just got to shake it off, and keep hittin them. You know how bad at golf you get, the harder you try. Just enjoy the fishing experience and it will come to you. If you think its your bait, which i doubt, try something else. If you have the confidence in what you are doing, the results will be there. I go fishing to catch fish. Sure, there are times that I don't catch any, but I still go with the expectation that I will catch one or two. I don't get skunked very often, and it may not be the species that I have targeted, but at least I caught a fish!
