This is REAL close to where we go. Pits in Ohio and Muhlenburg. Muhlenburg is the home of the Everly Brothers.

Out of the game for a while. Any recommendations for a kids set up, looking to do some panfishing on a small pond. Preferably no live bait, so lure recommendations too, not looking for trophy fish, more quantity.

Buy a can of whole corn (the kind you eat). It makes GREAT panfish bait. Its cheap, a lot cleaner than using worms and if the fish aren't biting you can always eat it. I got tired of dealing with young grandkids who were "afraid" of the worms so I switched to corn on the advise of a local guide and it works fine.

Good night shot of my honey hole. A different lake.

Are you allowed to use artificial light to attract fish? That will get you a nice ticket here in Mn.

I've tried just about everything. We ran out of bait up in Canada one time and caught our limits of walleyes on balogna.

Almost 6 months into this years license and I haven't even dunked a worm or cast a line. I hate Wyoming.

Watching them reel in a fish is great. Especially after you finally get them to bait their own hook and take the fish off the hook. This summer I will be working on getting them to clean their fish (if my "helicopter mom" of a daughter lets them handle a knife. THAT is going to be the challenge.

I think that’s @sailfish. Only reason I could tell is he’s not wearing a mask. So, it might be @Brownslave688 too!

It would be interesting to know what bet he lost.

I bet he'd fish with @Indecisi0n

Never knew this thread existed. Weather will be warming up here in the next few days. Been catching loads of female gills full of eggs lately with some bull males thrown in. They should be on the nest this weekend or next. Earlier in the smaller waters. Gonna change up my tactics and keep more females and let those bulls keep the gene pool going. A mess of 25 and I will be a happy camper. Then the freezer will be good for a good while. After that it's back to my 1st love- bass fishing and creek wading for smallies.

25 I could knock that out in half an hour in my pond


Just nothing worth a damn size wise lol
