Monday 6/27 report

[ALLSTAR1]

Very slow fishing, water is full of crap, sickly green color... Managed a few in 2 days on inflated night crawlers and gulp eggs and pink trout magnets. Only people catching a lot said they were chumming with dog food and using brown power bait... I guess that might work.

I didn't know it was legal to chum....seems like an awful lot of work to catch fish ?

PREBAIT

I enjoyed your article on fishing for carp. It sounds like a lot of fun, and I can't wait to try it. I was surprised to read that you can bait a site beforehand. I had always thought it was illegal to bait fish.

Editor's note: Chumming is considered an acceptable fishing method everywhere in Missouri, except in the trout parks, where it is illegal. In my experience, only catfish, carp and trout fishing can be improved by chumming. Baiting animals for hunting is not allowed.
