How stubborn are you (technique-wise)?

[eelman]

You dont want to use eels, Then dont. Who really cares? Just fish the way you feel like fishing. All fish caught are good regardless of if they came on a plug or not, Makes no difference.Who ever caught a good fish still put in his or her time and thats what its all about. I will say this that its never easy to land or hook a good fish. It all takes knowledge. However this board IMO is definatly skewed towards the plug crowd .Its like a republican in a room full of democrats!! From the top brass on down this board is definatly a Plug fishing forum more than anything else with all the promotions,advertisements, plug fests etc...its all plug stuff, because all other methods that include some form of bait are laughed at or called not sporting. Its Bull%$%$%$%$....

It should be called "Striped-Bass-plugs.Com" If anyone comes here seeking advice on fishing live bait they will most certainly be met with hostility bordering that of the stupid "spot burning" stuff. So thats why I say around here you either plug or you "cheat" "dont play fair" and "have it to easy". I.I would certainly rather put my $25 faith in a dozen snakes rather than a pretty hunk of wood, while its may be an artform, that part is also overated.

I see a Plug builders forum but I certainly dont see a live bait forum...Think it or not...There are tactics in that type of fishing also.......
have a good winter......
