I have to agree with Chalk on this one

That's about the dumbest thing I have ever heard a profesional fisher say about his or her prey

If they where so stupid, we wouldn't need the FishBites ta get them to bite!!!!

Seems Mr Haag agrees with me, you have to be stupid to be fooled by Fishbites.

Be nice Cran, or we'll take that pic of a gun away from you

Yes, please be nice. Fishbites was gracious enough to sponsor BigBendFishing.Net for another year.

OK, I will be nice to Fishbites.

I,m sure wevans and chalk will be nice to them, also.

Didn't know I said anything unpleasant about FishBites

, my comments were directed to the professional fisherman.

I have used Fish Bites a grand total of one time to catch bait for CSMarine and myself..It worked, though it was old and fell apart pretty quick. It works

Anyone every see if a cat would eat it

, then you could sell it to the animal shelter to bait cat traps. I'll take 2% of the profit, it was my idea

Chalk, "cats' love it.

I've caught Sailtop and Hardhead cats with it.

My cat ate a strip off of the hook when I left the pole laying in the boat still baited

shore woulda hated ta see what would happen had she gotten hooked

I still use them when I know the fish are there and just not bitting, they will usualy take the bait with the FishBites added to it

Sorry Chalk and wevans, I didn,t mean to drag you down to my level of disgrace.

I love fishbites really.

I KNOW NOTHING, NOTHING AT ALL

Redfish are kind of a strange fish to me. Get one in some shallow water and they can be very spooky and hard to catch. Get 30-40 of them ganged up together and they can be VERY stupid. Kind of like teenagers.

BTW, I do think fishbites are a better Redfish bait than they are a Trout bait.
