Which is better?
prolly depends on the lake's natural food source supply
Minnows!
Have bumped boats in the pads with guys using shrimp and been outfished for over 20 years, but that is in the pads or cane and only when they are shallow and biting well anyway. In deep water(over 6') haven't seen many guys using shrimp. Don't really like to 'dip' shrimp because of the SNAKES that like the same places.--shu
I luv shrimp in La. For me they will outfish minnows or jigs. I've caught them in 11 fow.
in the lakes I fished I have used minnows and have not caught 1 fish,put on a shrimp and start bringing in the fish ,had this happen on 3 different trips so I no longer bring minnows,,,,on the shrimp we have caught,spec's ,bass,blue gill,shell cracker,warmought,even a huge mud fish
I have better luck with shrimp when they are in the pads or grass. But when trolling minnows hands down
Where do you find the shrimp, and how do you get them? I saw mention of dipping, do you just use a small mesh dip net or is there another method. I'm familiar with saltwater shrimp, but have never used the Freshwater ones. Please enlighten me :)
on the top right of page enter freshwater shrimp under advanced search and get a wealth of info on same question.--shu
I found out that pets smart around hear sell them 100 for ten dollars
