CATALPA WORMS!!!!!!!

You said the magic word when it comes to live bait fishing

Not just catfish, but ANY fish!!!!

As far as I'm concerned, if you use catalpa worms and can't catch a fish. Either there ain't no fish in the lake or you SUCK!!!!

My favorite fishing is going after bream/bluegill with my B&M poles and catalpa worms.

Then have a big fry with hush puppies, corn on the cob, cole slaw, peach cobbler topped with vanilla ice cream and gallons of sweet tea!

Yeah on that! I had a catalpa tree in my yard in Illinois that had the worms on the tree. They are great bait.

I awoke one early morning hearing a strange WHOP WHOP WHOP noise. I discovered an idiot I worked with.  He had a sledgehammer and was pounding away on the main trunk of my tree!   

I yelled at him and made him stop.

The monkey heard if you pound on the tree with a sledgehammer, it would make the worms drop onto the ground. I informed him to get the hell off my place before he killed my tree or I had him jailed. 

I'm going to be fishing Lake Havasu in AZ  next month, mostly for stripers and trolling with shad. We will probably do some catfishing, too.
