Minnow

Catching big fish with small fish exploits their predatory nature, and minnows are as universal a prey for predatory fish as you can get. Minnows can typically be bought from bait shops. The bluntnose minnow is the primary bait fish for Northern America, and has a very high tolerance for variable water qualities, which helps its distribution throughout many regions. Minnows can be fished with, in a number of different ways. Floating them beneath a fishing bobber is an effective method in spring as many fish are in shallow waters.
