Al,

I too have noticed a decline in my fish catching. Once I put 10 lbs of FHM's in my pond I have a hard time catching any bass now. I think your right they are full and happy so they are not taking the bait as much. I went from catching about 10 to 12 per outing ot about 3 per outing.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
