    wow, that is sort of funny, that was a daily thing when I was a kid in one area I fished. 400 every trip in a few hours was a piece of cake. Now the grass has took over that area and I do good to catch 10 fish from there anymore.

    I use corn for trout in Arkansas. I'm guessing that trout like corn because it looks like various fish eggs.

    Down here in Fla-La-Land grass shrimp are a main source of food and plentiful so we have no need to buy corn, no matter how cheap.

    Fishing for a fish that cost $2.99 a pound with a fish that cost $9.99 a pound ? Veerry interesting!! Actually, I have used shrimp that got freezer burnt for catfish bait and TORE THEM UP !! Doesn't take much, a little piece on a small treble hook.
    My worst day of fishin' is still better than my best day at work!

    Used to fish for catfish with shrimp when I was a boy. At times it was a great bait.
    Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

    Grass shrimp are free at Lake Okeechobee and other Central Florida lakes. In ten minutes you can have enough for all day.
