I give darters little pauses and change speed and also pump the rod. Darters are not easy. Needlefish are another story |

Pencils are easy on days when all you have to do is hit the water to raise a fish.
They're also easy to hook fish on--landing them is another story. They're second only to darters in giving the hooks a bad purchase in a fish's mouth.
They're also hook-straighteners if a fish gets everything just right.

Well, I don't know really. Been listening to the plugophiles talk about how easy bait is until I really thought about it. I was just bored yesterday. |
It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Plugs vs bait? Bah humbug. The real test of a good fisherman is who can catch fish without a cellphone.
