Its like the worst nightmare any yellowfisherman could ever have!!!
My guess would be, something in the weather wasnt right, maybe too hot water temp, storm that changed the air pressure, or something else that put them off the bite.. cuz it certainly wasnt fly selection
I found that often they will have seen you (long before you see them), but they will not visibly spook. But they certainly stop feeding.
When I sat still and rested the water for 10 minutes or so, my first cast would usually result in a take from visible fish. Took me 3 days to figure this out...
You are a perishable item. Live accordingly.
