Well....if your unattached always a chance you could snag a rich woman with a nice boat.
Other than that the big problem bank fishing is finding a good place from the bank. And sometimes once you find them it's about how hard are they to get too.But hey walking a lot will make you healthy.
Lord knows I spent some time bank fishing.
Here's a couple tip's. Sometimes if you're just setting on the bank anyway. You can put out a minnow trap while you fish and catch some bait in the right waters. Night fishing around areas that have lights on the water in a good spot will yield some fish at times. If the fish are close in and spooky a lively minnow on a bare hook and unweighted line tossed gently in to them will make them bite when they are in a real skittish mood.
