Plastic Alternative

Plastic worms can do harm to fish when they litter the bottom of a lake. Whether a bass throws the plastic while you are fighting it toward the boat or you have to break off from getting snagged, the fact of the matter is that plastics do end up floating seductively to the bottom of your favorite fishing hole. And most likely, these hookless lures get eaten by something. To help you sleep better at night, both FoodSource Lure Corp. (www.fslures.com) and Berkley Gulp (www.berkley-fishing.com) offer environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional soft plastic baits. Berkley's are "100 percent biodegradable," while FoodSource lures are "all food and completely biodegradable." yz
