lol, dont say u trained him to sit and stay

yes minnows u buy from a bait shop are much healthier and cheaper, but if anyone cathes a bass and is gona keep it you should get him started on pellets right away, unless u can sustain feeders everyday this is much easier

Just because bass won't eat pellets or flakes does not mean you must buy feeders or baitfish constatly. I find that most bass will take frozen fish foods without a problem along with crickets (and other insects, many that can be bought at the LFS), earthworms, crayfish, frozen shrimp and other similer food stuffs. They are all cheaper in the long run and safer.

I kept several large mouths for 3 years, they are a riot. They are very territorial and will put the case on most anything that they can. I would go to the store and get 4 dozen medium feeders and dump the works in, they would stay at the bottom and wait for the goldie's to school up, and then shoot through the school catching 8-10 in one pass, all that would be around would be little gold scales. The would take turns and the hole works would be gone in under 5 minutes. The kids loved it. I had tow bull head catfish as well they would try for scraps. I would go to the bait shop and get 3 dozen dew worms and hold the worm with a set of long tank tools and they would come and play tug a war with me it was great. I only fed once a week, so the action was crazy. good luck with him.
