Bait fishing has always been fun for me. Dad used to take me anywhere he knew we'd catch alot of fish and could keep me entertained. now some of these places are my favorite places to go catch bait. I will most definitly be passing these memories onto my spawn when that time comes. Bait fishing is one thing that also keeps my girlfriend entertained. She gets bored if we arent catching anything but bluegill fishing will always produce, keeps her interested and gives me the opportunity to go fishing more. I will still fish lures occasionally, usually smaller stuff for whatever is willing to bite. I probably wont be catching any monster LMB or smallies, but on ultralight even an 1 lber can be quite the treat.
Everyone tells me i sound stupid when i tell them i dont have the patience for bass fishing when they know i like to catfish, but truth be told that i catch more catfish then i probably could bass if i tryed to fish lures all day. I cant throw lures all day waiting for a bite, but i can when im waiting for a catfish to bite.
