Spinner Baits in the Wind

The wind came up Saturday afternoon as I was heading into one of my favorite backwater lakes. I caught three fish on a spinner bait in a classic windy weather position. I cast directly into the windward face of a tuly line. Three fish in five casts. Then nothing. I kept at it for about 2 hours, but nothing worked. I tried retrieving into and across windward points, casting into windward tulie lines, and senkoing protected leeward spots. Nothing produced.

Since the bite was so perfectly classic for the first couple minutes with a spinner bait I wondered what I could have done to improve that bite afterwards?

Maybe I just got lucky and caught all the active fish right off the bat? Some how I doubt that.

What would you have done?
