Vince it sounds to me that the fish are now begining to treat Active with an eye of suspicion. This is not uncommon when a bait has been all conqering. The way I have always dealt with such a situation, is to play on the fact that they are only capable of limited reasoning. They recognise active as a good food scource and want to eat it, but they also know there is an element of danger, the trick is to do something that will throw them off the plot. My favorite ploy in such a situation is to bait up as per usual, but to cast my hook baits off the baited area. Another ploy I have used, which is a bit off beat, is to cast out a stringer of bait that I am sure they will be wary of, but use the previous going bait on the hair. My theory behind this is to create a greater source of danger, then hopefully they will take the bait that they recognise as a food scource. I have no real proof that this theory works as described, but it has caught me fish from some very tricky waters. As Rik says, this is a bait application thing, you will have to do something out of the ordinary to trip them up. I have also had some good fish using black baits as Dave has suggested, as well as colouring them black, I also just skinned my freebies. I thought this would flustrate them a little bit, as the scorce of food would not be that easy to find.
