Hungry? Have a fishin' rod and some line and hooks? Close to a fishin' hole? Low on cash?

Get a little hook and string up your reel. Go to said fishin' hole and dig in the dirt somewhere and find some worms. I personally think that red wrigglers work best because they are livelier, last longer(especially in the heat) and are harder to get off the hook(and on). Fish until you catch a sunfish. You will want to use one for bait. Depending on if you have a ig rod on hand or not, you may or may not want to use a small baitfish(Or you may have thirty pound test line ready for the big one and thus bigger bait!). The bigger and livelier the baitfish the bigger the catch.

Once you catch the right baitfish you will want to perhaps get out a bigger rod and reel for the big ones. Now you just put a BIG hook on your line and hook the baitfish near the back of it below it's spine. If you hit it just right you can run the hook through it twice so it won't get off so easy. The reason for hooking it near the back under the spine is that this is the prime place to get it on good AND this also leaves the float bladder intact so that it can swim and attract your catch.

Now cast that bad boy out where you think the big one is and wait a while. You may get a turtle(especially if the bait dies) so you want to reel it in every half hour to hour or so. Using this technique you can go fishing on a LOW budget and catch a bass or catfish easily and it may weigh 5-7lbs. or more.

Careful, dont let 'em pull you in. Brace your self with rod in hand unless you want to lose it! Make sure you have your drag set right so that it doesn't snap your line but still reels in the big one.

Happy Fishin' Folks!
Good Luck!
