Try running your motor some days I let it idle all day some people say it don't help but I think it does. Try spreaders it puts the bait on the bottom rather than a crappie rig the top two hooks are off the bottom also bounce the weight on the bottom. Goldies have been working fine for me I got 30 today with them. I like to anchor and stay put unless it's totally dead. For me I wish walleye were as easy to catch as perch are. Try using perch eyes for bait or pinch the minnows head to get the juice flowing. Try different things it will get easier.
