Pa Angler Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 You can't use natural baits except for pork trailers but are Hot Dogs really natural with all the preservatives and chemicals I wonder heck the color isn't even natural. LOL!!! Chow The Pa Angler Quote

nwgabassmaster Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 the flw finnesse worms, the straight tailed ones taste and smell like gummy worms. its crazy Um, you sure that you aren't crazy for actually knowing what the worms TASTE like? :-/ Smelling, I can understand, but TASTING? ;D That adds a whole new dimension to "catching a fisherman". ;D ;D I believe that it is the Renegade 6 in. twirl tail worms, that can be found at Wal-Mart that smell wonderfully, and they catch fish also. I haven't bought any in a while, but I would like to know what exactly the smell is that is added. ??? ??? Quote
Guest TNT_Hookers Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 After reading this thread, the wife got curious. To add insult to injury, she even used the cheese-filled variety of hot dogs. And guess what? She caught a bass! Quote
Pa Angler Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 Wow! Hot Dogs for Bass I wonder if condiments will help as an attractant. LOL!!!! Chow The Pa Angler Quote
JaxBasser Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 Another food that catches fish is Gummy Worms,seriously i have weightless rigged them before and caught bass. Quote
Chris Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 If they are dumb enough to hit a stick with hooks they should be dumb enough to hit a hotdog. Liver works too. Quote
Hookhead Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 Renegade worms smell like grape jelly. That crap they put on Tiki Stix makes me want to heave. It's a good thing the fish in my arear don't like 'em either. I HATE the way the smell. Quote
Michael H Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 i have caught a couple bass on hot dogs lol i had to try it after i saw this forum and it surprisely worked Quote
rocknfish9001 Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 i have used hotdogs before. You dont use a whole dog, just a little slice. You rig it under a bobber. It works wonders on bluegill, but you will catch a few bass. My friend caught a 5+ ponder on a hotdog trying to catch bluegill. Up here, thats a monster. Quote
heresdustin Posted August 27, 2005 Posted August 27, 2005 And so it comes to this. You know, I didn't want to say anything, but I have tried some weird stuff for bass, too. Gummy worms, hot dogs, and even roots from a plant! I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one out there. Well, good luck with the Oscar Mayers, boys! And like I said earlier, keep them posts coming! They brighten my day! Quote
rocknfish9001 Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 I have also used tree roots before, and get this, they caught fish! Not any bass, though, just bluegill. I was gill fishing from a pond shore, ran out of worms, and just grabbed a root that looked wormy. Caught lots of fish and didnt have to re bait the hook. Quote
JaxBasser Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 Bluegill are stupid lol,ive caught them using a gold hook with no bait,tinfoil,and even on tabs off of beer cans. Quote
Cujo Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 hot dogs and saurkraut(sp) are good. mmmmm! dinner time! Quote
CallMeTheSeeker Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 <~~~~caught a gill on a cigarette butt ...i was like 12. and lots on hot dog pieces lol -Seeker Quote
bass267 Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 i have never tried it with hotdogs but i have caught bluegills on bratwaurst! fun and cheap bait!!!! Quote
atoms Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 ive caught a bass off of a hotdog when i was fishing for bluegill,but that was just a fluke. I thought you said it was a bass? Quote
Pond-Pro Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 Fishing for bass with hot dogs, creative,but no. I was fishing once with limited supplys and caught a nice bass on a piece of a tore up brush hog rigged wacky style. I am pretty sure that you can get a fish to hit almost anything. The gummy worm idea might be somthing to try. They are a lot cheaper than senkos and might be affective. Id probably eat them all my self though. : Quote
bass master Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 Never caught a bass on hotdogs. I have though caught millions of bluegill on them. Quote
basser89 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 I've heard of this! Haven't tried it yet. One of my good friends invites me to a farm pond one of his relatives has. His cousin's daughters use hot dogs and Brauts (?spelling?) all the time. They've pulled bass out of that pond in the 25-27 inch range on these meaty offerings rigging them "wacky rigged"! My biggest out of that pond is a 5 1/2 pounder on a spinnerbait. Guess I need to take some dogs with me the next time I get the invite! LOL! Sean Quote
