English fishing is the envy of the civilised world, and we never experience such things. That's a very difficult question. It's such a specialised term, and so few of us are deep sea fishermen!
You might think about similar terms, such as 'in the doldrums'. This is a sailing term which means you are becalmed - no winds, flat ocean - that has come into general use to mean that you are fed up and feeling low. It's not specifically a fishing term though, but it may catch the flavour of what you are trying to say. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doldrums Bob > > I'm trying to title a picture for the PDML book.
