What is Got Bait?
Which is better for fishing: bait, or lures? This is a question anglers have argued about since the dawn of man. So boats.com editor and fisherman Lenny Rudow decided to answer it through hand-to-hand combat, and the result is an all-new fishing show, Got Bait?
In each 20 minute episode, Lenny and a guest angler (who specializes in a particular species) fish as "Team Lures." Lenny's twin teenaged sons, David and Max go head to head with the grownups as "Team Bait." Along the way they mix in pranks, a fishing quiz or two, some background about each species, and a few tips to help you on your next fishing adventure.
And in case you think this is just a friendly, casual contest, the boys are so confident they can out-fish the adults that they place a wager on each day's outcome—and then do their best to rig the results.
