LIVE FISHING BAIT
LIVE FISHING BAIT OR LURES?
By Ken Liebeskind
Yalesville, Connecticut
Fishing with live bait is a favorite of many anglers, who believe they can catch more fish with live bait, because it's a natural food source.
The favorite live fishing bait of all times is worms, with night crawlers and red worms at the top of the list. Shad is the most popular bait fish, with minnows and beam also popular. Big fish eat little fish, so they work well and live cutbait is also used.
Crawfish or cray fish are used for bass. Crickets and grasshoppers are also used as live fishing bait.

Some anglers prefer artificial lures because they're easier and quicker to use. They can outperform live bait under certain conditions, including stained or murky water, night time and in moving water.Also in some waterways, such as North Carolina trout streams, live fishing bait may be illegal.
The best artificial lures are designed to resemble live fishing bait, not just in appearance but in the way they move. www.scientificfishing.com offers scientifically designed lures that look and move like real fish, including the Kick Tail lure, which looks like the threadfin shad, the most prevalent bait fish. It moves naturally thanks to a patented aeronautical flutter technology that causes the tail, which is broken into five segments, to wag back and forth in the water. It moves continuously, unlike other hard baits that remain stationery or stop moving after a brief time.
The Kick Tail beat other popular lures three to one in a Florida test of tournament fishermen and it also caught large fish, so you can use it to fish for trophy bass.
The Kick Tail is available in a variety of enticing colors, from natural shad to fire tiger and root beer.
