I appreciate the kind words brother. Truth is , any of those baits will catch fish. MANY times a week I see other guys fishing real close or on one of my holes that we absolutely hammer smack the fish. Well, way more often than not, they don’t do so well. I see what they are using , or ask them, and usually they are using something else. Yes, they will catch a couple here and there. I can move right to the spot after they leave and throw down on the fish. Exactly where they were just fishing. Maybe it is technique, maybe it is just luck. I can also toss a handful of Stubby’s to them, give them a quick tutorial and they go to catching.

I know 5 high level channel cats anglers and y’all all use a different bait to fill the boat. Stubby’s, Sure Shot, CJs, DK, or J pig. The one thing y’all all have in common is experience. The flip side to that is I know a bunch of anglers that can rarely fill the boat no matter what bait they are using. It’s the angler!


There is a fine line between fishing and floating around like an idiot!!

Don’t Forget about Big Marv’s Bait. It is the best on lakes in south Texas and Lake Tawokoni.

I catch plenty since I learned about Stubby's. I was catching them good on CJs punch bait too, but I didn't like coming home smelling like CJ's. Fishing in a kayak keeps you too close to the stink!

Okay since everyone is telling me to include stubby’s I will. Can I get a phone number to purchase it? Also I’d like to get a hold of some big marvs for this competition then that’s all I will include

Whether Stubby’s is better bait than XYZ Stinkola can be debated. What cannot be debated is the convenience of a bait that can be put on your hook, rinsed off of your hands with no residual smell, and STILL CATCH FISH ! thumb
