Have NEVER Caught A Fish In This Hole

I have fished this hole for 3 years now. I have caught fish above and below this specific hole. I have NEVER had a bite in this hole.

I have had friends with that have pounded this hole.

No one can crack the code.

The last time I fished it I finally made excuses for not catching anything in there.

The guy I was with laughed.

I said maybe some worm dunkers fished it hard and that is why there are no fish in here. My friend dismissed that notion. He said it was way too remote and the weeds were not knocked down to explain that excuse.

We were walking out and my buddy said: "The only logical reason for no trout to be in that hole is because there is "ONE" huge dominant trout in that hole that eats or scares away others and is as smart as they come and only feeds nocturnally."

I like his reasoning.

Weird, I like the solo lunker theory.

I have never fished for trout before. But I found a little hole many years ago on a Minnesota lake. I fished it several times unsuccesfully. Then one day instead of useung my trolling motor to access it, i floated right into it with some help from the wind. First cast my slip bobber went down. And reeled in a 6 # pound smallmouth. The lady at the baitstation said it was one of the largest she had seen in the area for a long time. I cant beleive i never mounted it.

I cant remember it was over 15 years ago. Not sure if I even took a tape to it.

the potential of a big fish is there.

This trout was caught just 40 yards downstream under a downed tree and the stream there is 4 feet wide there at best.
