Hubby and I just moved to PA last month and were eager to get fishing. We've been out twice on Presque Isle, saw dozens if not hundreds of fish jumping, saw a boat pulling them in hand over fist, and even saw a man pull up an 18# cat. I know there are fish there ... Why can't I get at 'em?

Tried small jigs, rubber worms, pre-packed minnows (I didn't realize Gander didn't sell live bait), salmon eggs, corn, small spoons, small spinners, and small plugs. You name it, I think I've tried it.

Looking for any advice you've got. We've been in Misery bay, the north pier, and the first grassy pool on the bay side (not sure what it's called).

Thanks!
