"How are you going to catch any fish, if you are f******* around in the minnow bucket!!"

My grandpa once showed me you can put a slender stick an inch or two down a sunnies mouth and then grab the line and the stick at the same time, swirl the fish around a couple-a-times and out pops the hook. Never killed one since (and they always swallow the hook)

Found out why that is too. I have a 55 gallon aquarium at home. I bought a large mouth, a small mouth, and my son put a sunny and a couple bull heads in there. They'll eat 4 dozen minnows in 5 minutes. The bass are very agressive and chase and engulf the minnows, the bullheads seem like they don't have very good vision, and won't eat anything more than a few inches off the bottom. When they do eat one (or 12) they'll often kill it and spit it out a time or two until they get it turned properly and then they'll swallow it... but now the sunny, well he, I'm not really sure it's a he, just sits there very patiently, and when he eats... poof... the minnow's gone. When a minnow gets within a half inch or so, the sunny just sorta goes shlrooooop, and it's gone. So now I know why, when I'm fishin for sunnies, they always swallow it. Oh and by the way, none of them will touch a dead minnow.

Those bullheads are funny to watch. I'll drop a worm in the far end of the tank, and the bullheads are at the opposite end, facing the other way. There will be a 5 or 10 second delay, and then all of a sudden, they'll both go to the other end and dig it out of the rocks... they can smell it.

My dad once said. By the best and you'll never be sorry...

I don't know about that, but I do know that there are definitely times when I have gone cheap, and I was sorry.

His coralary went like this.

Buy the best and you'll forget what you paid for it. Buy a POS and you never will.
