Catch Whats Biting

When I was young, I often fished with my Uncle Julius. Each time we went, I always asked, “What are we going to fish for?” My uncle’s answer was always the same: “We’ll catch what’s biting.”

Some days we fished with minnows, worms or crickets. Sometimes we’d cast plugs, spinners or jigs. Occasionally we fished with all these.

We always caught dozens of fish, sometimes as many as 100 or more.
