Please, can someone give me some advise on how to catch TILAPIA on a rod and reel...A few of us have become interested in tilapia that are stocked in some power plant lakes here in Texas but nobody seems to fish for them... Two species, the Spotted, and the Blue. They are running up to 6 lbs... Would like to know best BAIT.... Thanks
