    Default Bank fishing


    For bank fishing, which slip bobbers do you prefer for casting distance?
    Also recently i picked up some fish attractant(baitmate classic) for crappie/panfish. Does anyone ever use attractants for crappie fishing? Thanks in advance!! Peter

    I use primarily a Waggler float. You can also make a "weighted" float to cast farther by adding b.b. split shot and resealing it. Here's how http://www.crappie.com/crappie/archi...d-crappie.html

    I make my own "Attractant" and here's how I do that too.......
    Anise - 5 drops
    Cod Liver Oil - 4 tablespoons
    P-Nut Oil - 4 tablespoons
    Sunmade fish oil - 6 tablespoons
    Liquid Garlic -1.2 inch or so
    Sea Salt - A few healthy pinches
    Fill your container with P-Nut oil. (I'd say about 6 ounces will last you all year)
    Add a chopped up crawler or two (Or tubiflex)if you like a wormy smell.
    Add food coloring if you want

    Heat in your OWN microwave in the shed for three minutes. Strain,through your wife's OLD pantyhose, into an air tight and leakproof container for your tackle box!

    Pour into jar seal the lid tight and keep in refrigerator until ready for use! Put it on your tubes (Three drops only) or live bait with an eye dropper or spray it on!


    Shake well before using! WARNING............may cause the fish to uncontrolably and visciously attack your presentation! May cause Fishing POX which is very contageous to adult fishermen. They are like EXLAX and just have to GO! GO! GO!....Fishing that is

    Default Hey Ship

    Does that recipe make the jig tubes any tastier when you cook them up? Mine are always chewy and taste oily.:o

    Hey Tom,

    This only my recipe that I put on store bought tubes to refresh them.
    Keeps them slimy and nice for the fish.
