Now I am using lures more than chunking, but if the lures dies down in getting fish, i'll be back to 75% chunking.




MrHunters- if your lures weren't producing, than would you go get bait?

Not all the time, but sure. I like to have all the bases covered. When you're targeting finnickey fish, sometimes it just takes a different offering. I don't care about being a "purist". I just want to catch fish.

yep most likely... i would have a tendancy to fish longer with bait if I had a buddy to fish with those times... i tend to get antsy while waiting... thats why i like casting from the shore and trolling/casting from a boat.

Same with me, I would die if I had noone to hang pout with while the bait just sits there!
