What....fish don't like bananas?

I have been told over and over bananas are bad luck. But we were taking them out and didn't really have any bad luck, and never noticed any less fish. We have been fishing out of Geneva for at least 15 years, anytime between mid-July and mid-August, and had to run out past 70' or deeper to catch fish in mid-summer. I had a good friend who chartered west until mid-July, then moved his boat to Geneva. Even fishing in Geneva earlier in the year is a good place to fish, but the fish are shallower and not schooled up like they are when they move to deeper water. We stopped using harnesses a few years ago and started using spoons with lite bite divers fished deep, then we ran our 2 riggers set 50 or 55 feet down. With harnesses, we were running 1'6 to 2'2 depending on the waves, but the spoons were better when they ran 2.7 to 3.2.
