I tried both approach... first, corn...I threw some corn near the shore... just to try the luck attracting something..... then I put my hook with some kernel near.... nothing for half an hour... no fish at all.

Then, I tried fake worm.... no success at all

It seems I am in a bad luck!

Don't worry dude, it's not bad luck. I can't count how many times I've been skunked (jargon for a day without fish). Fishing involves a lot of variables and they don't always line up in the angler's favor.

Next time you're in Markham I'd love to meet up and fish. I live relatively close to Toogood. I haven't caught anything there either, but a friend of mine did with his hands LOL (a sick white sucker). So don't feed bad

Another day at Togood Pond.. besides a guy catching 4 carps (small ones), today I got skunked again... but I took your advice... I went for a hike along the river.. and for my surprise I saw a huge trout near the river split and a huge largemounth bass near the "beaver dam"

I hope I can catch something soon

now a quick question.... is it OK to use fish atractant on spoon baits? how exactly do you guys use spoons?
