Hey guys I plan on doing a lot of fishing in gibbons creek this week and was wondering if anyone had any advice as far as tilapia go, I know to fish in or around the discharge canal but what should I use as far as bait goes? Thanks in advance


There are two spiritual dangers in not owning a farm. One is the danger of supposing that breakfast comes from the grocery, and the other that heat comes from the furnace.

Oatmeal strawberry jell-o and water... mix until it gets hard enough to put a little ball around a small hook. This catches a large variety of fish.

Thanks for all the help, as far as a hook goes do I need a small hook like for carp or are their mouths a little bigger?
