What’s the best live bait to use for fishing in streams?
Posted by admin on Wednesday, February 24th, 2010
I have a regular fishing rod, not a fly rod, and am looking to use “LIVE BAIT”.

Sharkfishrmanon 24 Feb 2010 at 11:43 pm 4Try using a minnow or even what they call Chubbs..Which is another type of minnow but you can catch them in the stream!!!Good Luck!!!

Tcaton 25 Feb 2010 at 2:18 am 8Choosing the right bait usually depends on alot of things. The species you are after, water tempurature, clarity and spawning characteristics and just like reality…. location, location, location. For some fish, worms and grubs are one of the best food sources that prove to be a consistant producer. For others minnows, brim or crayfish. Even pig ears from the local butcher shop. If you be a little more specific… I can give you a better guide.
Cali805Coupleon 25 Feb 2010 at 2:27 am 9I think nightcrawlers ,earthworms work best ,they appear natural when you drift them along in the current .
tight lines, brian
Muskiemanon 25 Feb 2010 at 3:13 am 10It depends what you are fishing for. if you are fishing for bass, use crawdads (crayfish), or creek chubs. If you are fishing for panfish, catfish, or perch use red worms or earthworms
