Fish catching tips
Q. It feels like I’m the only one who doesn’t get fish when I go fishing with anyone. How can I make sure I’m not the only one not bringing home fish?

A. You need some serious angling help, Fishless, so I went to a serious angler for advice. I recently ran into Jimbo Meador, an expert angler with Legacy Paddlesports and former Orvis fishing guide, and asked him your question. Check out this video to learn from the master:
spinnerbaits are good for structure. dont use deep divers around trees or deep weeds if ur not prepared to loose ‘em.
If you catch a crayfish, hook it through the tail and/or back and cast in deep water.
for saltwater fishing the best bait ever is tube worms they grow of piers that are mostly in the water you will see plants off the side the worms are in the plant squeez the worm out and the have tails that fish dont like the tail so cugt it off then use the worm and you will most likely cath a cat fish
