    Glad to see all the postings about using corn for bait. My wife won't bait her own hook OR take a fish off...I'm gonna take some corn and at least knock one of those off my plate! Looking forward to spring if that stinking salvinia plant doesn't take over my fishin hole!

    I've used canned corned for bluegills only cause where I was at had no bait and tackle shops that I knew of... works great when I'm trout fishing, caught plenty of carp on corn and catfish too.

    but most of the time I end up eating it all haha

    I have never used corn for bream. I caught my share of trout on it though. On one bream trip, I had some salad shrimp left over from a trout trip the day before. The bream tore them up. And, they stayed on the hook better too. Since then I have experimented with coloring them with food color and adding some minced garlic. I didn't see any difference than just using them as they come.

    Shrimp is another awesome bait. It works in fresh or saltwater. We've had a few threads on it here. Bread is great, too. Just pinch a small piece on the hook, and it will take most freshwater fish.

    You really don't even need to go to a bait shop. With corn, hot dogs, bread, and shrimp, you could catch plenty of fish.
