Live bait vs. Artificial experiment - Need some input

[Slab]

Billbob only uses the dead minnows floating at the top of the bait bucket (cause he can't hold on to the live ones long enough to get them on a hook), and he catches plenty of crappie. just sayin'

I would think it would be hard for man to produce something they would rather eat than what the Lord provided them naturally. I fish plastics 95 percent of the time because its less trouble. However, I have been worn out by minnow fisherman.
