[meepster]

Told ya to skip the cast net. Practice with it a bit, you'll get the hang of it. If I can figure them out anyone can.

i always get those damn pesky crayfish critters that eat all the bait before the minnows even get to it

lol, ive never tried a cast net, and dont really ever want to

ok, the bait catching trip has been cancalled because the temps are near 100 today. I'll probably go down to the local river (its like down the street lol) and do some angling.

[lil_blue]

ok, the trip is postponed until next week (boo hoo). The river doesn't have many bait fish (well not the part near my house anyway) but I might be able to catch an eel with my trap.

What should I bait my trap with?

I think I figured out hte cast net (but I probably won't use it on the river because hte bottom is littered with peices of fence, telephone poles, and other stuff. I'll use the cast net in a pond.)

the bait trap I might get something (the fish can probably hide in the litter of telephone poles and such lol)

bait it with half a large bluegill. or throw a glob of shicken livers in it.
