Maggots in my tackle box
Speaking of that, I left a hotdog pack in my catfishing tackle box a month and a half ago. Didnt go fishing for a while. A few days ago I went to go check to see if I ever did take out the hot dogs. To my surprise, there were these little brown dots on the outside of my blue plano tackle tackle box. I open it up, the most rancid scratch that PUTRID smell I have ever smelled in my life erupted from that small tackle box. I dawn the black grime buster gloves. I prepare for bilogical war. All hands on deck. Now or never. I lift up the trays, the nucleus of the infestation, nay the heart of the evil seeping from that plastic box. I take out the Carolina Links package with one dog missing that I used. Half the hotdogs are turned to a bio-hazard mush of frothing, pulsing, maggot filled decay. I make a grave mistake, I take a whiff. Instant gag, I throw up in my mouth. I put the the dogs back in box. I decide to take the loss on the rapala filet knife and fish grip scale along with some other odds and ends and some lures for bass. Im probably out like 55 bucks. But the death smell, the indescribable putrid smell that permeated everything rendered everything insavlageable. That folks is why you nee to clean out your stuff.

Circle hooks are the best for sit and wait catfishing because they set themselves.

Throw out some hotdogs on a 5/0 circle hook medium heavy spinning rod with 15 pound line at the deepest part of the lake. Set it in a rod holder and wait. BTW Welcome to the fourms!

I like the spot remover with the spike when using trick worms, but the screw type for Zman worms.

10"+ Straight tail worms...
Hmm, My walmart is in the center of some big fishing hubs in the southcarolina region so mine might be a bit larger in the fishing department. I retract my statement and say if you can find it grab up a bag or two.

Go to your local walmart and pick up a pack of mans jelly worms for under five dollars. You will find everthing you need, or want at walmart 80% of the time if you just look.
