Yes. Above 2 inch long with three or four holes in side

I purchase a tub of this bait but do not think that was a good idea. I have tried to use it three times now and this is what I found out.

I used tubes to pack the bait into. I guess if a fish bite within a couple of minutes it would be okay. It dissolves after a short time in the water. Even drying off the tubes before trying to load them again it is nearly impossible to reload them.

I have not tried it yet with sponges but will try that otherwise I might as well throw it away.

If anyone has used it and like it please clue me in on how to use it.

While I was in electronic school at Keesler on day after class three of the class were told to report to a building for testing but not told what testing was for. After four hours of testing, each one was sat down to talk with an officer. The first question he asked me was," why did you take the test because you can not be on flying status because you are wearing glasses". I told him I was ordered to report for testing and did not known what type of testing it was. That is when he told me it was for bombardier school. He did tell me that if it weren't for the glasses I would have been selected. I guess that was as close to making an officer as you can come and not make it. My electronic training paid off in the long run because I worked for Texas Instruments just shy of 34 years. I don't think they could have used a bombardier .

Thanks

I will expand on my military service a little from what I first posted. I found out in the middle of December 1951 that I would be drafted into the Marines in March of 1952. I went to the Air Force recruiter and put a big sob story on him. I knew that I was not tough enough to make a Marine. He had a six month waiting list and I had three months. He finally agreed to give me a physical and aptitude test and then we would talk. After that he told me if I was the first in line after the Christmas break on December 26 1951 ( had previously giving year as 1952, close but not quite), he would see that I went to the Air Force. I was first in line on the 26th.

I wanted to be a aircraft and engine mechanic but they had other ideas. They said my math skills would make electronic easy for me and they had a shortage. Went to Biloxi, Keesler Air Base for training for thirteen months basic electronic and radar maintenance finished school in February 1952 and reported to Camp Kilmer for oversea station. Graduation class ahead of me had gone to Korea and the class behind me also went to Korea. I was lucky and drew a Germany assignment.

When I landed in Germany I had 33 months left on my active four year commitment. In 1954 I met my future wife. Her Mother owned an cafe and I love to eat. It takes a lot of paper word for military to marry a foreign national. I requested a three month extension but was denied, but they offered me a 15 month extension to make me 48 months in Germany. I did not really have any choice if I wanted to get married. We finally got approval on Nov 5 1956 and were married on November 10 1956. Rotated to the States in March 1657 and separated from active duty.

I made the final rank of S Sgt. and was with a mobile unit. Twenty three enlisted men and six officers. We were a bomb scoring unit. Had only 45 minutes break thing down and be on the road. I was always stationed on a nearby Army base instead of Air Force base. We were known as the bus driver by the army personnel.

Our Organization chart showed a M/Sgt as being in charge of Radar and Radio but I served as leader from A/1C until I was released from active service.

Wife and I will celebrate our 64th anniversary this coming November 10

I know a man who served in the Army, Air Force, Navy and Coast Guard.

I did not have a curfew but the next day was a work day regardless when I got home Yes I loved both my parents. What they taught me has been my guidance for all my life.

That was not my granddad but my Dad. He could always find the hardest jobs to do after a all night out.

A lot of the tools used to day on the drilling floor of a rig , were the original ideas of a Mr. Walker of Maryneal Texas. Of course he never got credit or profited from them because they were copied and patented by someone else. His old cable drilling rig ended up on the campus of Texas Tech and may still be there. More than once did he help my Dad and I solve a problems were were having working on windmills.

He used a model T with a pulley fastened to a rear wheel for power to operate the drilling rig.

He was the only blacksmith that I ever met that could weld two pieces of iron together just using a forge , anvil and hammer.

He would not weigh a 100 pounds soaking wet

I was in a cafe in Sweetwater Texas seated at a table for two when a man approached and asked if he could sit at the table. It was Randolph Scot. We had real pleasant meal and a good talk.

On Monday 6/22/20 I removed the installed gas tank from my pontoon. Gave it a good cleaning inside and out and went to reinstall it on 6/24/20. Before I started with reinstall I baited one of my sunfish hook, hoping to catch one for bait. I got a medium size sunfish after about 15 minutes. Cut it up for some catfish bait. Then went about thetask of reinstalling the gas tank. I had a bell on the reel and after about a hour i heard the bells ringing.

Got my net and proceeded to net a nice size cat. It was 20 inches in length but did not dig out the scales. Will attach picture.

Got the tank reinstalled and caught my supper, that makes a good day.

I know there was little money to be had. Dad was working on ranches for less than a dollar a day. He got a raise in October 1940 to $30.00 a month. That was 7 days a week from can see to can’t see. By April or May 1941 he was making $7.50 a day. All young men were off to war and he was over age limit.

I am a 1932 model and yes we did all that and lived to talk about it
