Has anyone ever tried using Hummingbirds for bait? I've heard about this for years and just wondered how effective it is. Doesn't seem fair to me, poor lil Hummingbirds.

I have never heard this, but it should be illegal! Besides, I don't think they can fly underwater! :)
I think Lowrance uses them to increase sales. :Rofl
Nice one Craig......Ranger
I want to see you catch one. Fair chase only, hands only.
As a kid, we would use a hook without a weight and hook a cicada through the abdomen. Flick him in the direction you wanted him to fly and grab the line when you wanted him to hit the water. Made a good topwater buzz bait.
Lol
They aren't hard to catch if your patient! And if your feeding them.
Did that once as a kid . the little sucker drilled me somehow . But dang sure let him go .
I thought Hummingbirds just made good trot line weights. Didn't know you could use them for bait. Now I get the post, you're talking about our lil feathered friends. LOL. Alll joking aside make a video of catching one and we all will be somewhat richer......Ranger
this is the funniest fishing question I've ever heard. I truly hope it was a joke. LOL
