So far only 1 day that I had zero bites in a day of fishing. Normally I get 3 or so a year since I fish year round. This year has been great for numbers especially the summer.

My year has been just the opposite I blanked in 5 tourneys this season not a good thing I actually only made 1 TOC out of the 4 trails I fish

I’ve not bothered to weigh in some fish this year, but don’t remember not catching something. Keeper size fish in tournaments have been hard to come by for me this year.
One trip so far. Some have been close but I was able to find a few dumb enough to bite.....

I have had a few days in the last couple of months where I left thinking what I could have done different but I did at least catch one keeper.
I have blanked 3 times this year this far
All three times on my home lake...same lake I won twice on last year

Once so far this season, never even had a bite that day. I need to correct that I have blanked twice this year. I forgot about the 2nd day of a two day tournament earlier in the yr.

Never actually zeroed but have thrown my 1 fish back twice to speed up the weigh in process since I don't fish for points. So 2 times I guess.
Never have the last few years. I fish the same lake year round so I know my bass by name

I'm talking all fishing, not just tournaments. I'm including fun fishing.
Not yet this year. On most lakes around here I've got a spot or two that will usually get a small keeper in the boat.

Me. I haven’t zeroed in 3 years. I check the cows before I go.

I have quite few, but I am usually out looking and trying to find new areas or structure. I do this by myself, I enjoy the challege and the search. When I go with others its about catching fish,have not blanked on those days.
All honesty, I haven’t in 3 years but I don’t go near as much either.
.
I don’t usually keep track of stuff like that, but I do know that this year I have caught at least one fish every trip. Not always the case, especially really early or really late in the season
I don't get skunked often. There are enough small creeks dumping into the lake that have a lot of rock and rubble on them. So if I am having one of those days, I put on a 4" whacky worm,small tube or Ned rig and catch me some smallmouth dinks if necessary. Fortunately if you pound the docks enough you will stumble on at least one when things are tough.
