Fellas...I'm usually crappie fishing, but my mom loves buffalo, and the only time I catch one is when I accidently get a good hookset in a fin. Would you tell me how to target the buffalo..what kind of bait, tackle, and best type of water/structure. Thanks...some good looking fish you have there. Some of the pictures were taken at night..is that better fishing? If you look at the top of the carp section, you will see a sticky called "Carp FAQ and Links". Since you can catch buffalo on pretty much any method that you can catch carp, all of the info in that thread will work for buffalo.

Some of the pictures were taken at night..is that better fishing? this is frowned upon by many here but since u r keeping them, get u a bit of cottonseed mill, a few slices of bread and a tiny bit of water, make a dough with it, 2 slices of bread to a handfull of cottonseedmill, and then once u get that made chunk a few in the imeadiate area, and then get u a small trebble hook, and put a good bit of that dough mixture on the hook double the size of the hook chunk it in your area that is chummed then wait for it to start running then yank on it fairly hard then get ready for a heckuva fight

LOL! the perils of fishing alone with just a timer on the camera. I have since bought a camera with a remote! But since I don't fish anymore it was money wasted I guess!
