I never even tried for Crappie. The Cats have really turned on. Next time the boat is going no matter what. I saw the boat action around the treastle was pretty hot.
Gotta love those crickets.

Their was a pile of Mormon Crickets on the road on the way in so I stopped and picked up a bunch. I also caught several on just a plain ol night crawler.

Try soaking the crickets in some shrimp oil. It's like cat candy!

You have to go find them, and it's worth it. They are the best catfish bait available anywhere.

The fisin hole in Bruneau sells them but pet shops that handle lizards will have crikets for sale.

I think for the cats they are talking about the huge "Mormon" crickets.

Indeed, but those little feeder crickets will work. Just need 3 per hook instead of one big mormon.

are they still causing problems down southern Idaho? I know when I was stationed in Mt home north of Boise some roads had caution signs about braking distance since there were so many...

Grasshoppers are also great catfish bait.
