I would not worry about it, take a few casts and see what it produces. something different is sometimes the key. Take a few casts, have some patience you might be pleasantly surprised.

I keep silica gel packets in with my crank baits. I also got Plano Edge boxes which have an insert to help keep things dry. I find this happens when it’s rained on a trip but I don’t take the time to clean and dry the box afterwards.

I have no complaints about numbers of fish on the Ganny...numbers of people is another matter. The issue with the Ganny (with the exception of the Sylvan Glen stretch) is that most of the river above the dam flows through private posted land. So people concentrate in the few areas that are open to the public, making for a less than ideal fishing experience...especially on opening week. That's why, several years ago I joined the GVFC. We have exclusive access to several km's of prime river over 7 different large private properties/ farms. Awesome fishing and no crowds...and because it's a club, the members observe proper fishing etiquette, like rotating through pools and not leaving trash behind. After opening weekend, we often fish all day and rarely run into any other anglers. Worth every penny.

Probably some smooth brain thinking they're dropping chems on us

an update on this, ended up dealing with Dave at Riversports Recreation in Holland Landing. I love a salesman that doesnt act like a salesman. I know they can have their place when you are shopping around and need information about options, but In my scenario I knew exactly what I needed, I simply needed to get the best price possible. Our conversation was, what do you need? whats your lowest price you were able to get from our competition? let me confirm that I can beat it and that we can get you the motor in a reasonable amount of time. Here is the delivery date, lets make sure we get the deposit in before the promo deadline to extend your warranty at no cost, deal complete. Cant ask for a better transaction.
