![]() We used to make them out of 2x4's. Just make a frame for a cube and cover all but one side with wire mesh. Then pound a few nails to the inside of the open end, pointed downward into the cube. Put some chicken livers in it and they'll crawl over the top of the cage to get in but the nails prevent them from getting back out. |

Other issue is tying them on. Arthritis in hands makes it hard. |

You can buy clips so you dont have to tie lures on. https://www.basspro.com/SearchDisplay#q=snaps Choosing lures can be a puzzle. Took me decades to figure out which baits to tie on in given situations. Fortunately, now we have YouTube, and there are millions of clips about how to choose which baits for a given situation. Here's some vids that can be helpful. I'd stick with the top-10 or so. https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...r+bass+fishing In general, keep things simple. In clearer water/bright days, fish smaller and light colors. Darker, larger baits in murky water/low light. Soft plastics like worms (I like Roboworms and Berkeley Power Worms/baits) are a go-to in most freshwater., 4"-6" most of the time. Oh, we're in spring, so use a lot of white colored baits. White and Red, otherwise known as "clown" should be top producers at this time of year. Play around with sink rate; try some light weighted lures for slow falling action, and some heavy baits, until the fish tell you what they want to eat. Work baits slower this time of year, faster as the water warms up. Anyway, hope some of that helps.

Basic tutorial on how to bass fish in the spring, prespawn. I'm guessing that where you guys are, this is what stage the fish are at:
Here, we already have fish beginning to bed.

I fished some farm ponds on Monday with Dad, wife, and daughter. We caught over 20 largemouth bass total, cleaning 11. Biggest was 2 1/2 pounds. It was a great day to fish. The water was fairly muddy, but I've seen much worse. They were still pretty light in color and the bite was kind of light. Fish tacos that night were AMAZING!!!

The cost of the round is about the same .22lr I think was $.06 and the .223 were like $.07. Have thousands of both, just like tearing shit up

Ha. Way to go. This reminds me of as a kid we got to fish a farmers pond out by Medicine Lodge it was drying up so the farmer said catch all we can and we were making a game not to catch fish and we would catch them without bait. We caught over 20 that we took home to fry. What a badass day that was. Never had a day like that again. We were throwing in hooks and reeling in as fast as we could and still catch them lol It's sad though when farm ponds dry up.

But a floating trap like that is EFFECTIVE. We could clean out a pond in a couple of days. |

I need to get down to Truman soon and get my boat on the water to make sure it is ready once they go. Hopefully the weather stays decent and doesn't **** up the spawn.

Some pics of some of the fish I caught a couple three weeks ago
Some kind of shad, about a foot long: ![]() Common carp, less than 10 lbs ![]() Another common, over 25 inches ![]() Silly cat ![]() Funny thing is, they all ate the exact same fly, a clown Clouser minnow I tied maybe 15 years ago. So did the three white bass I caught that day, though for some reason I can't find the pics of those fish. Post when i find them.
