      I don’t know why. I love fishing. Take an umbrella and a book, maybe some paints and paper, forget the rod and bait, it’s great

      I come from a family of women who like fishing. We do exist! I started pretty young, then stopped for a long time, but have recently gotten back into it. It can be a lot of fun and very peaceful just casting a line out and chilling for a while.

          Yup! So far I’ve lost about 2lbs of shrimp bait, so if nothing else, those fish are getting fed lol

            I like to use hot dogs. Dirt cheap, and if you leave 'em in the sun to get a little funky they work like a charm!

              I’ve used hot dogs in fresh water lake fishing, but I never tried in salt water pier fishing. I may have to give it a try one of these days.
