hockeyplon 06 Nov 2009 at 1:44 pm 1For bass, plastic worms, and spinnerbaits are my two choices no matter what. They seem to work every time. And they’re cheap. Most spinnerbaits are in the $1-$5 dollar range, with a bag of plastic worms costing less than $4. Also, there are other soft plastics such as frogs, lizards, crayfish, etc. that work great. Now for bass live-baits, minnows, crayfish and nightcrawlers are hard to beat. For trout, in-line spinners such as rooster tails, mepp’s, and panther martin’s are great … and cheap! Every trout angler has in-line spinners. And for bait, nightcrawlers or corn is the best.
Now for the ole’ catfish … About that, they don’t take lures. Most of the time, anyways. But, for bait, nightcrawlers, crayfish or chicken liver are great for catfish.
And for the line, well it takes different lines for different species.
For catfish, 14 lb. Stren is great, i have it on a reel of mine. And for bass, if you have a baitcaster, Stren is also good in the 14 lb. version. But, if you have a spinning reel you should get some 10-12 lb. test, preferably monofilament. And for trout, 6-8 lb. mono is good for all-purpose.
Anytime you can fish, is a good time to fish!!!

Backwater Charlieon 06 Nov 2009 at 1:50 pm 2ok u will need one pack of each of this stuff for bass: plastic worms work, yamgatu senkos 4 inches, tubes. thats about it for bass. you dont need a lot of stuff to get started with, a spinnerbait, crankbait, a jerkbait and a jig are some other lures you can get for bass. for catfish u should use shrimp on a size 2 hook with a half ounce weight. for trout u could use live worms on a size 6 hook.you could also use a spinner. for bass i would use a 6’6 rod with 10 pound test line. for trout i would use a light action rod with 6 pound test line.
westhillon 06 Nov 2009 at 2:23 pm 3Live bait, I have always done good with minnows no matter where my travels took me. You may see too that soft plastics work very well for bass. For trout I always did best with flies. Your really gonna need to first and foremost figure out what rod and reel your going to use. If you are in the north then don’t underestimate the white curly tail jig. If your out west think of using a pencil bait lure. If your down south, consider using a purple salamander. I have had great luck with all of these things.
Unknown Truthon 06 Nov 2009 at 3:10 pm 4For trout may I suggest you take up fly fishing. There is nothing like that fish hitting that fly on the surface. It’s like they come out of the water and slap the bug with their tail and eat that baby on the way down.. Really awsome. I tried worms on some lake trout and wound up with a whole bunch of catfish.
