| Many people look at me weird when I step on a | | | | bring the fish in, you take it off the hook and |
| pier at night and I have a little tackle box a | | | | then grab another live victim, but ooops!!! It slips |
| bucket and a bait cast rod and reel. Well, that's all | | | | out of your hands. Now while you are fumbling |
| I need for night fishing at my favorite spots. I | | | | trying to get your live bait back in your hands and |
| look at other anglers and you can see that they | | | | into the water. |
| have there 15 gallon tanks filled with water and | | | | The guy with the little tackle box and fake lures |
| shrimp ready to fish the night away. Well that's all | | | | has thrown 15 cast and caught 4 fish to your 1 |
| fine and dandy, but when the bite is on, this can | | | | fish. See the difference? You waist time and |
| become troublesome. I have seen many | | | | fishing water when you have live bait. Don't get |
| occasions where the person that has artificial will | | | | me wrong, I use live bait mostly when the |
| out fish the guy with the live shrimp. | | | | conditions are ruff. High wind, cloudy water clarity, |
| Why? Anglers can cover more areas with artificial | | | | inactive fish and my favorite, the stubborn picky |
| and change the depth of there lure when needed. | | | | fish. These factors play a major role into picking |
| Live bait takes longer to setup and get your new | | | | live or fake bait. I also like to use lures when I am |
| bait into the water. Just think about it. Cast your | | | | doing a quicky fishing trip. A few cast of the fake |
| live bait into the water, then wait until something | | | | bait and that's all I need. Although having a |
| comes along and decides it wants to swipe at | | | | combination can be good to have on a night |
| your bait. Well, wile the bait is now dead, the fish | | | | fishing trip. It can also create more tackle to carry |

| another live bait on the hook to try to get more | | | | don't buy it. You can save money buying less live |
