The ball weight doesn't get hung up as easily when drifting. You only need about a 1 oz. Ball Weight. Just enough to get the minnow on the bottom, and the weight will roll and not get hung up
dumb question but where are you getting the minnows now? I remember when I was a kid you could just go down the bait store and pick up some live bait fish but now you have to get them from the same water you're fishing in... so, in other words you have to catch them out of the sac river if youre going to use them in the sacramento river?
Yessir! I’m thinking about making a video using live minnows from the bank. A lot more relatable to the bank fishermen. Nice video bro!
Thank you! That's a good idea. I used to use a little boat I made for fishing live minnows and plugs from the bank pretty cool.
@@fishtherapy247 haha that would be fun
Nice catch - love the ending now that is therapy👊🎣👍
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it, Fishing is the best Therapy!
Great video thanks for the tip no one told me and I never knew that you can use minnows to catch strippers... It's on now😎

I've been limiting out on blood or pile worms everytime i go out. Even on nightcrawlers when they're put of the other two
Good job!
Is there a particular advantage to using the ball weight over other weights?

You can still buy them from the store. That law applies when you are using bait you caught, you cant catch it and take it somewhere else.
