I met a fly fisherman today at sportsmans warehouse that was gearing up to try "regular" fishing after talking for a few minutes and helping him pick some gear, he asked me what is the best way to fish. My answer was whatever is the best way that works for you. There is more than one way to catch fish. At my local lake, sometimes the trout bite on power eggs, sometimes on worms, and sometimes on roostertail spinners. Saying bait is cheating is only limiting yourself to not get bites on days that they just wont bite on artificial gear.

Yea the elitist freshwater guys don't have a clue. Big fish, small pond.

[@NickMachado]

I'd assume they are referring to bass fishing. All of my fishing buddies exclusively fish for bass. If we catch something else, cool but the main target is large mouths or smallies, if they are present.

[@VisibleNoises]

Why not use dead bait?

[@Heste04kraft93]

and rightfully so, live bait you just torture a living creature for your own pleasure. Me and my dad fish plenty of times every summer and we have no problem catching fish in salt water, it's just excuses.

[@SovietGentlemen]

Now that is one hell of a bass

[@USMarineCorps10.4]

Imagine a survival scenario, where theres a guy who will only use artificial and a guy who only uses live. And the artificial guy starts tying fishing line to a stick for the thrill of tricking the fish

Every hobby has its gatekeepers lmao

[@ComboCollectibles]

I agree sometimes you need those shoreline hangout days just waiting for them to hit live bait, it's fun and relaxing!

[@Athena_Light]

And sure enough - this is my contribution to these videos and happy to do it. Great video

Fishing and hunting are being infiltrated by tons of people who think you need to “pay to win”, most expensive boat, truck, rods, guns, camo etc…and they get really mad when people show up with some skill/experience that money can’t buy and catch more and kill more…the fish don’t care how expensive your rod or boat is if you don’t have the sense to cast into the right places, or pick the right bait, and the deer don’t care if you have $3000 rifle with a $1000 scope if you can’t shoot for shit and don’t understand how to find game… shore fishing with real bait is accessible to anyone with a $20 setup from Walmart and a $5 container or worms or minnows, and that makes people look down on it, even though it’s just as and sometimes more effective than plastics and bass boats

Some of the most self righteous people fish. Especially fly fishermen

Brother I’ve been drinking on the job for 30 years, yah got soft hands brother soft hands…

[@chonch_burger]

As a person who can't sit still, using lures is just more fun. Drifting bait is fun too, just keeps me busy

[@egg-xn4gw]

If you don’t use bait there’s something wrong 💀

Catch fish the way you want to Broski! Striper are around the corner!

“If you think I’m day drinking on a work day your out of your mind” guess I’m out of my mind 😂

[@Codyd99749]

I've done fly only for about the past decade. It too gets a little boring if that is all you do because you have to generally work really hard for the results that arent as good as the other methods. But doing that really honed in my fly fishing game. Now i fish bait, lure and fly trying become a better overall angler. Even during my purist phase i still found certain facets if bait fishing very interesting. Good luck on your journey

[@PelicanVR]

Only children actually fish, fabricate your fish out of thin air like a real man

[@filippospano8447]

as a saltwater fisherman, working your way up the food chain is one of the most satisfying things you do. throw a net, catch some shrimp, use the shrimp to catch a pin fish, cut the pin fish and catch a bull red. try it! it's so much fun and will challenge you in ways that you never even thought of!

[@RikkiTikkiTavi290]

So true. Sand flea, to croaker, to small jack, to shark is a fun time. Much preferable to the glass minnow, to goggle eye, to tuna, to shark that happens much too often for my taste. A lot of crazy stuff happens while bait fishing that you would miss otherwise.

[@LachlanHu]

I always have those moments! Like when I catch a massive fish I’m like “It must be a flathead or gulped that bait down” but when it jumps then I’m like “no it’s a Australian salmon, flathead don’t jump” then I feel it in and it’s a kingfish I love your vids and I subscribed

[@anthonybenanti9240]

The real question here is whats wrong with day drinking on a weekday?!?! Hahaha
