Freshwater vs Saltwater
Live bait is one of the most effective ways to catch fish in South Florida, whether you are fishing in freshwater or saltwater. Live bait can mimic the natural prey of your target fish and trigger their predatory instincts. However, not all live baits are created equal, and you need to know what types of live bait to use, how to take care of them, and what else you might need to make the most of your live bait fishing.
You can fish in some of the most amazing locations near our store. We’re located right near Riverbend National Reserve, and Lake Okeechobee which is a freshwater fishing hotspot, and only a few miles away from the coast, where you can enjoy some great saltwater fishing.

If you want to catch more fish in South Florida, you need to use live bait. Live bait can attract fish better than artificial lures and make them bite harder.

Keep your live bait alive.
You need to use water that matches the salinity and temperature of the water where you caught your live bait or where you will fish with them. You can use seawater or freshwater depending on the type of live bait you have. You can also add some ice to lower the temperature of the water if it is too warm.
You can add some additives to the water to improve the quality and condition of your live bait. You can use salt or baking soda to reduce stress and ammonia levels in your live bait. You can also use products like Rejuvenade or G-Juice that contain electrolytes and vitamins to enhance the health and liveliness of your live bait.
You need to change the water in your container regularly to prevent it from getting dirty and toxic for your live bait. You can change the water every few hours or whenever you notice signs of deterioration in your live bait such as loss of color or scales.
