I am going to talk about a few different fishing styles and what types of fishing bait works best for each one.
Carp Fishing
Carp fishing is a little bit different then other types of fishing. The kind of fishing bait that works best with carp fishing is luncheon meat. This includes meats such as turkey, spam, ham and other types of meats.
This type of fishing bait has been used a lot in the past but it still works just as good today as it does back then. An alternative that you can use for carp fishing as well is boilies and pellets.
Walleye Fishing
From my own personal experience I have found that spinners tend to work the best when Walleye fishing. These lures work great at getting the fish's attention and hooking one on your line. In addition to spinners, you can try jigs as well.
A deadly combination is to use a jig and put on a minnow as well. This way you have synthetic bait and live bait mixed together on the same line. I have found that this combination tends to work very well at attracting fish.
Trout Fishing
The best way to go about catching trout is to get some sort of synthetic powerbait and strap that onto your hook. These baits work extremely well when equipped with a gang hook.
Live bait also tends to work very well for trout fishing as well. You will probably need to use a combination of the two in order to get the best results.
So there are a few tips that you can try out when trying to figure out what type of fishing bait to use. Each type of fishing requires that you use different kinds of fishing bait so be sure to experiment often.
I would like to add this if you are fishing for sunfish, panfish, or bluegill, shell crackers, red ears. Ham in small pieces would work just fine to catch these fish. This would not be my first choice in baits for these fish. But if I was on my lunch break while fishing and forgot my baits ham should work just fine.
does blue cats spawn this time of the year and how long
Spawning occurs mostly in rivers and streams in the spring and early summer when waters warm to 70 to 85 degrees. They also will spawn in larger lakes where suitable habitat is available. Eggs are deposited in nests secluded under banks or logs or over open bottom. The male selects the site, often a natural cavern or hole, clears the nest and guards the eggs and young. A female may lay 2,000 to 21,000 eggs that hatch in six to 10 days depending on water temperature. Males protect the fry until they leave the nest in about a week.

There are several ways that you can bread something for cooking purposes. You would use a different method depending on how crispy or soft, light or dense you want your breading to be. You will need a liquid (milk, buttermilk, beaten egg, batter) and your breading (flour, breadcrumbs, batter). You would first dip your fillet in the the liquid, let the excess drip from the meat, and then coat the fillet in your chosen breading. In the case of batter, you need only dip the fillet in the batter before cooking. Once your fillets are breaded, you can either pan-fry them in oil or deep-fry them.
