Went fishing today

well guys i went fishing today. I didnt have a boat so i fished from the bank today. I fished for about an hour with no luck. Then i tied on xps crankbait in red craw. I fished it along the rip rap bank, I didnt catch anyhting but they kept following that crankbait. I just couldnt get a bite. But it felt good to be fishing anyways.

If they followed it and didn't nip at it, shouldn't you change to a different lure to try to find something they would hit ?The other thing is the crankbait has to be running into something , once it hits or bumps off something the sniffers will get excited and most times hit the bait. Maybe someone else will have more knowledge on cranks, Zooker knows, but he might not share it with us.
