New boat! 2025 Avid Vertex 20 with a 175 SHO. Spot lock, live scope, etc.

I’m struggling hard to catch fish.

I can’t tell if its just the summer paired with the bodies of water I have available or what, but I just can’t seem to get on the fish. I’m throwing everything you can think of. I catch one here and there on a frog, a wacky, spinner baits, flipping jigs, you name it I’ll catch one on it…. But I’ll go out for 5 hours and catch one fish.

I’m fishing rivers. The confluence of the Neuse and Trent near New Bern, NC. Any advice appreciated.

Fishing the Neuse/Trent rivers here in NC. Just cant seem to find anything larger than these dinks. Lots of frogging and flipping pads. Need to find deeper water, surface temp was 88° yesterday. Fished a couple 15-25 foot holes with a big worm, one little tap but no fish.
