Unless you are targeting them for bait, they are a slimy nuisance.

Certainly a favorite catfish cut-bait and the smaller fish are excellent fished alive for striper.

Zara Puppy , Black Shiner https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Heddon_Zara_Puppy_Walking_Bait/descpage-HZP3.html I rarely fish it, little fish like it too much.

I learned a long time ago NOT to buy clothing for my wife. I bought her a new kitchen this year and it's almost completed.

Well, I have my core baits then add baits and colors recommended by our members. I generally prefer soft plastics and jigs which is pretty simple, but I like fishing jerkbaits and shallow crankbaits. My main baits: Senko & Fat Ika Rage tail Structure Bug, Menace and Baby Craw Siebert Grid Iron G2 Jig/ Rage Craw Hard baits: Megabass Vision 110 Jackhammer Norman Fat Boy Red Eye Shad Sworming Hornet/ LFT Live Magic Shad Megabass PopMax Bandit 200 LC Sammy Zara Spook Then I have a 1000 more to decorate my tackle bag!

Talk with Mike and he can build your dream rod at a reasonable price. http://www.delawarevalleytackle.com/

The muskellunge, often abbreviated to “muskie,” is a sharp-toothed, aggressive fish that can grow to more than 50 inches long, and it is often considered the ultimate challenge in freshwater fishing. Because muskies are so difficult to find and catch, they have earned the nickname of “the fish of a thousand casts.” Guess not for you... CONGRATULATIONS!

I like just about everything AJ does with his videos, but mostly I like his BIG fish!

What a pleasant surprise!

Geez!

The MBR 844 is a great rod for jigs and weighted soft plastics, but can also be used as an "all-around" rod. However, I do not think it is the "best" topwater stick. My main rod for topwater is the PR844C which is much more flexible than the MBR.

I love the Holidays! Ours start with flags for Labor Day and extends through Veteran's Day. Then Halloween is BIG for us. Thanksgiving begins November 1st and today the Christmas decorations start to appear...

Most of them will be just fine, but when in doubt, throw 'em out.

Ick! That sounds like something TnRiver46 would eat.

My daughter says when your parents pass away YOU become the "Old People". Well, we have our kids, grandkids. aunt and an uncle here for Thanksgiving and I think it's great that I'm able to put on a fest for the gang. I hope you all have an enjoyable gathering with family and friends. Cheers to the Old People!
