Here a little tip for your mealworms. Fold a dish rag in half and place it on top the bedding.The biggest worms will go inside it to make harvesting them for fishing easy.Also a light mist of water from a spray bottle they do love, and makes them all come out of the woodwork.

I have given away many bags of Black/Chart slider grubs.A couple of guys i know only fish this bait because it is so productive on all fish species.I tell people if you can't catch them on this bait,I hope you can swing a golf club because you are not a fisherman.

I can take 4 rods out, rig up 3 with artificial and 1 with live, let the live bait sit on the bottom while i float 1 artificial, cast/retrieve another and let the 3rd sit on the bottom with the live bait and only get hits/hookups on the live. Case in point last sunday at buzzard roost in greenwood. Every one of these white perch took the worm. I keep trying though.

Do you use 4-6 lb.test line and 1/32 oz. jig heads ? It's usually the fall rate that controls the bite .I have never caught a white bass on either of these three baits but they should work.

Never tried the Go Go minnow, what length are they? Would love to give them a try.

there are more than 1 size but I have only used the 2 inch . If I was to buy one it would be the" perfect pearl" in the 2 inch . Caught these yesterday with temps in the upper 30-low 40 degrees with wind .

Good post. That is about all I use also, only time I use live bait is if my friend goes with.

I need to try these (bg),I only have 18 colors of them but never try them for bream .

I like the 1.5" sliders.
The solid white ones and the pink with yellowish tail.
