Hope you were using monofilament line instead of cord. Water is very clear in Lake Martin. Cut bait (sunfish) is good bait and should at least catch a few tutles (LOL). You might want to buy a couple of minnow traps from Wal-Mart and place along your seawall for catching spot tail minnows. They make good bait.

Few years back, I made up a bunch of jugs using pvc piping. Makes it real easy to store and carry around in your boat. I actually use a couple of plastic baskets with lids to store and tote. I spray painted half with orange florescent paint and half with yellow. This way you can bait one color with one bait and the other color with a different bait. Sort of helps you figure out which bait is working. Night time is your best fishing.

Bleach jugs and other large bottles are just too bulky.
