    So we need some advice. We've been out multiple nights for hours on end trying to catch us a gator. We use beef lung and 2" dowls. We drop the bait and go off to wait. The gators have been grabbing the bait and we let them take it for anywhere from 20 minutes-an hour. Then we start the hunt...

    Recently me and some friends caught a 10 inch croaker. Well I know that usually people either throw them back or use them for bait but I had the idea to cook him up and eat him.

    I've used hotdogs to catch fish before with moderate success and just had fish biting on sausage which got me thinking is there any other stuff you wouldn't normally think of as bait and if so if I go to a resteraunt with a dock like flounders what would be good to get that if I didn't finish I...
