These worms can be purchased in tackle shops as a weight. They are usually wrapped in paper or peat and shipped in boxes.
Menhaden
Menhaden make the best flounder bait. Menhaden are juvenile fish and can be used as cut bait or live-lining bait. Menhaden can be used as bait for bluefish and old red drum. These fish are loved even by tarpons and king mackerels. They are also great for live-baiting king mackerel.

How To
Why should you use spinning rods?
A Spinning Rod is used when you want to cast your lure into the water without getting out of the boat. It's a great choice if you don't want to lose too much time getting back into the boat after every cast. A spinning rod will allow you to cast from any position, while maintaining control over your line. There are three components to the rod: handle, butt section and reel seat. The handle holds the rod and allows you to grip the shaft. The butt section is where you attach the rod's tip to the hook. The reel seat is where the line is attached to the reel. There are many kinds of rods on the market today. Some rods are only suitable for specific types of fishing such as trolling or casting. Others can be used to fly fish, spin fish, baitfish, and so on.
The type of rod you select depends on what kind of fish you plan to catch. If you want to target large predatory species, such as bass and pike, then you will need a heavier-duty rod. For smaller species, like salmon and trout, a lighter-weight rod might be better. You could even consider buying multiple rod sizes, depending on how large the fish you are trying to catch.
Spinning Rods can be used for more than just freshwater fishing. They are used extensively for saltwater fishing. Saltwater spinning rods are generally heavier than their freshwater counterparts because they require stronger materials to withstand the rigors of saltwater. Saltwater spinners are more likely to use a longer length rod and have a wider diameter. This allows them cast farther distances. A spinning rod is not the best choice for saltwater fishing. First, saltwater spinningrods don't come with reels. Instead, one must be purchased separately. They can also be very expensive. A spinning rod is worth your consideration if you enjoy catching larger fish.
A method of fishing that involves using a spinning rod and a weighted lure to cast into the water is called spin fishing. The weighted center of the lure turns as the lure moves through water. This causes the lure and fish to move around in the water erratically, making it harder for them to identify the lure. Fish may also mistake the lure for food and begin feeding on it. The lure will therefore attract more fish. The lure's line can then be reeled in by a fisherman. Once the lure has been retrieved, he can repeat this process until the desired number of fish has been caught.
