Hello fishing people Hope everyoneā€™s having a blessed day šŸŽ£

Iā€™ve been meaning to ask you somethingā€¦
Every time you guys go out fishing you get a fish?? šŸŸ

Iā€™ve been throwing lures & worms
For a couple of months in this canal that opens up to a big lake, itā€™s 5 mins from my home so itā€™s my preferred place to go.

The thing isā€¦ of all the time I have come here Iā€™ve only gotten 1 capture and lots of bites and some lost luresā€¦
Lately thereā€™s a construction going on really close to the canal so I think that is scaring the fish away šŸ¤·šŸ¾ I went yesterday and no fish activity at all.

Is this normal??
Should I look for more places to go
with potentially more fish ??
I know patience is key but Iā€™m just trying to make sure and correct what I might be doing wrong.

Thank you all!

    Thereā€™s levels to the game, and thatā€™s what makes it fun. Consistency comes with experience, but Iā€™ll still go out and get outfished by a 5 year old. Enjoy the ride! Learn from each trip!

    Maybe if the construction has a lot of constant heavy vibration, like a jack hammer or compactor it would push fish away. A table saw or nail guns wonā€™t really deter them. Time of day, direct sun level, atmospheric pressure, water temperature and on and on are all reason why fish will move or feed or hunker down.

    Yeah thatā€™s pretty normal I think. I look for new spots all the time and have way more luck catching fish when I move after one spot isnā€™t working.

    Also, certain lures might not be as productive as others. A small rooster tail or other inline spinner might work better than a worm, since little bluegill like that can nibble the worm off your hook.

    Patience is definitely helpful, but actively looking for better methods/places to catch more fish is imo better.
