Live bait...... Some people love it. In the last few weeks I've heard of catches of well over 100 fish a day...... per angler. If your fishing with kids, you want to have the best shot at having them catch something. Lately, using live bait is guarantee.

Lures...... Other people say "no way", live bait is no challenge. It's too easy and no fun. It's lures only for me.

To each his own. That's why I like fishing... you can do it your way.

My last trip out to Lake Wilson I had a bucket full of lively Medaka & Tilapia as well as my proven lure assortment and after 4 hours of fishing the choicest spots I had NOTHING to show for it with my only hit being on a trolled Rapala Minnow which I think was not actually a hit but a almost snag of one of many thousand armored catfish infesting the lake. As the saying goes there are only 2 guarantees in life: Death & Taxes.
I'd rather be lucky than good.

I would rather be good than lucky lol!!!! Caught a few my last time out

So are you bragging about being good or what?

i used to think that until i used Yum Dingers with that LBT scent, its just like live bait imo, but you can put action on it.
