Bait ball

[StinkyMatt]

No matter what anyone says. Even the most seasoned fishermen on here had days when they could's catch bait at all or they had to spend half their fishing day chasing a couple baits.


Not me obviously, I usually load up my bait tank in 15 minutes.

I'll put you on top of all the bait balls you want, brother...for a 12-pack of Bud.

Yup! there were alot of those baitballs in la Jolla last saturday.

There were so many lines on top of the baitballs it looked like spaghetti with meatballs on the FF.

Just to be clear, not every swarm of bait looks like a ball....

Somtimes you will see bait on the fish finder that looks like this....

(that is bait swimming toward something.....)

A bait ball will look like this.... and you color in the lines
