Hot dogs as bait? This guy's a genius! 🌭

Been struggling at my local lake until this old timer shared his secret - hot dogs on a bobber! Sounds crazy but hear me out. He explained thick braid is too visible underwater, and hot dogs work amazing for smaller fish that reveal what's actually living there. Plus you can slice them thin and quarter them for perfect bite-sized pieces. His real trick? Using a weightless rig to map the underwater structure by feeling elevation changes through your rod tip. Dude's been mapping our entire lake this way all summer! Sometimes the simplest baits work best when you're just trying to figure out what's down there. Ever tried unconventional grocery store baits that actually worked? #fishing #hotdogbait #lakefishing #fishingbait #bassfishing #outdoors
