Left the house today with no bait. Told myself I'd just use the cast net to catch bait. Sounds simple right? Forgot that I've never caught anything with the cast net before. Finally caught something after a hundred tries. All about sighting them and anticipating. Put him on a hook and tossed him out there only to catch a lot of cabbage. Was about to leave when I randomly tossed the net in the water just to practice for and caught 3 of those tiny pilchard things. Getting lethal with this thing...
