Basic Fishing Technique - 03/29/21 08:49 PM
I find numerous comments that the go to "bait" is the common worm. I also find comments that the fish are being caught at depths between shallow, a couple of feet, to 10 feet, or more. In large lakes I know that crappie and bream may be as deep as 15 ft to 25 ft.
My question is, using worms as your bait, what kind of rig is being used by you guys, and gals? Are you vertical fishing using slip bobbers? Are you using fish finders to find the depth to fish and then tie your knot at the appropriate depth? Or something else? I'll be trying to fish from a kayak rather than a larger power boat with trolling motor. Without a fish finder, it seems to be just trial and error at determining the water depth and the depth the fish are holding.
Thanks for tips and suggestions.
