I'll try vienna sausages . For catfish bait I am a huge fan of wheeties cereal and make wheetie balls and dip them in chicken liver blood . Thanks for the vienna sausage tip buddy

I can really get into tight places, under over-hanging trees and I love just being out on the lake. My kayaks are ocean kayaks and great in surf as well.

I hope I have time this year. I want to open produce stands and hopefully can steal a few hours a week to drop a line.

There is a town in va called narrows and it has some killer spots to fish in and kayak too !!

Jagg .. grasshopers is a great bait.... used them before too.

I got this idea from feeding some turtles in a pond one day on a picnic with my niece. So good luck with it. I usually cut the little sausages length wise once then in half once so I have 4 equal peices and put them on a hook, I do use a bobber like wolfy does and a few weights to sink my line , because catfish like to hide low so the farther down in the water the better off you are. Kind of stick close to the shore line too .

I used to have trouble with artificial bait too, until I went fishing with some buddies at work who are serious fisherman, they taught me alot.

Are there any types or brands they prefer? Can you pass some of those tips on

I enjoy fishing for large mouth bass, and usually use medium-sized shiners...which seem to work pretty well. But is there another type of bait that might work even better?

Bumping this thread

I see the last couple of posts had questions
Hoping someone else sees them and can answer

I'm tired and can't bring my brain to think proper right now

Gramps and I would fish off the banks of the mighty red river,his favorite bait was chicken livers or hearts,once we ran out so he used some blongna and a couple of nugets of corn in the can.All worked really well,been a long time since I went fishing.

I'm a Femme who loves to fish.

Jack and I are actually going on a camping/fishing trip next weekend! We fish off of our bass boat and are going to a lake that is rich with white bass, stripers, walleye, brown trout, crappie, and catfish. Yes, there is a little bit of everything on this lake because of its size!

Very excited! I have my own poles and we kinda troll back and forth in the channels that my family has been fishing for as long as I can remember and we always seem to have great luck.

Last year, something hit one of our poles so hard that it snapped 27-pound lead core. That is a BIG ASS FISH.

Needless to say, going to look for Big Bertha next weekend!

i was reading Field and Stream at Jiffy Lube today and read that muskie eat ducklings. There are these little duckling lures that people buy to catch muskie. God. i suppose there are many more ducklings than large muskie, but honestly i am not too happy with the Muskellunges.

DUCKLINGS??? Nature is too gross sometimes.

Fished for many years, but only with my dad. I never learned much and still can't clean a fish. I did it just to be outside and hang out with my dad. It's sad that he is too old to go out now. i miss it.

Can I just tell you how darn jealous I am of the two of you.
I wish you the best of luck catching Big Bertha, though.

I'm guessing there are other fish with teeth that do the same thing.
We catch fish and bring them home, so Muskie catch there dinner and eat it right away.
It's part of nature taking care of nature. Like humans, we hunt (ok, some of us don't).
