Can i go fishing and use live lizards as bait?
I live in florida and i have no worms, i know i can use hot dogs as bait for bass and other fish, but there are a ton of lizards right outside my door.
Can i use lizards as bait on my hook?


You can if you want to
Well you could, and this is going to sound weird i guess but i’ve used lizards before and no matter how you hook them they either
die
get off
get stolen off the hook.
and sadly you can’t hook their tails because they just disconnect them and leave.
Hook the lizard through the lip and fly line it. No sinker.
When you’re casting it, gently toss it out, don’t cast so hard. That’s how a lot of them get off.
I live in Florida in Melbourne. I just tried this during lunch for the heck of it the pond we have next to work. 3rd cast out, WHAM!!! Nice largemouth. I used a large lizard on the end of a Sabiki setup. I suppose the sabikis got his attention then he saw the guy on the end of the line. I can’t wait to try this again! Good luck to you!
