Worms, lures AND bait (small fish, crawdads, & the colorful stuff from the stores). Why? Because I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing and I'm just hoping one of them will work at any given time

That's actually a very good tactic. Just throw the whole tackle box at them!

We dig up worms from our own backyard, but the ducks get mad that we are stealing them

Footage of me "fishing" after my husband bans me for doing exactly that

I haven't gone fishing in over 50 years. I've never, ever caught a fish.

NEVER

Depends on what I am fishing for of course. If fishing for bass and you like the sport of it then you use artificial lures because part of it is tricking the fish into striking the lure. Anyone can catch fish with live bait. Could be true with some other types of fish as well as far as artificial lures go.

There is nothing wrong with catch and release and if done properly the vast majority of fish will live and strive. As far as stress goes by being caught and released, well, they still will bite again and again and again. I was with someone this last weekend who caught the same bass twice within a few minutes.

Bass are predators.

Tilapia is a carp and a very good tasting fish.

Most carp have way to many bones is one of of the reasons they are not considered good to eat. The texture of the meat is not great either. Tilapia do not have all the bones that most carp do and a mild taste and texture. Most other carp are considered trash fish.

Fresh water Stripe Bass as well as Hybrid Stripe are not considered great either, but I have found if you remove the red meat from them then they are not too bad. I love fish and could do well with fish being my only meat and never complain, though.

I want to informative these lol

Striper as in striped bass but it tried to add a certain letter and make it something WAY different.
