Hit up El Cap a couple weeks back and the lake was fishing tough for me. The fish were on some of the main points, and I had numerous bites throughout the day fishing a carolina rig. The fish were not committing very well. They would bite and let go. I managed to land one fish of all the bites I had. Missed one that I should have hooked as well. I was fishing the new 6th Sense Hogwalla creature bait. Similar to a brush hog style bait. Full video from the trip on my YouTube channel! https://youtu.be/-0ClSJNZxac
