I do like it better when they're bitting though, guess thats why I like crappie fishing. I don't care for cat fishing, I can't afford enough beer to make up for the boredom I caught my first white bass this year it was only about 7 or 8 inches but put up a nice little fight.
I went a dozen or so times this year, I didn't catch a whole lot. I found a farm pond that had a ton of little largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass 5"-10" long I went 2 or 3 times and caught about 25 on a nightcrawler and a bobber set at about 3 1/2'. I caught a few drum, about 30 crappie...
