Are there big enough fish in fresh waters to bite salt water baits?

if you're trolling... tiger muskies, northern pikes, lake trouts, strippers, wipers, large mouth bass, etc... plenty of fresh water game species that will gobble up some saltwater lures for sure... i picked up a size 6k reel that holds 300 yrds of 30 lb braided line and an 11 feet rod... i'm going to use it for bottom fishing... lol!

for sure... the gulf coast is only 16 hours away from me... plenty of big ocean fish that can be caught off the shore there...

I see.

Bottom fishing most likely will get you heavy cats only though. I love to fish cats but don't like to clean and eat them.

I have never driven more than 2.5  hours to go fishing. I won't ever drive more than that, unless it's going to Alaska via Vancouver.

we have hybrids here that will bottom feed too... actually, hybrids will eat pretty much just about anything... from artificial to live bait... a 10 to 15 inch hybrid aka wiper will peel drag...

I saltwater fish in a bay...

Man, after saltwater fishing... its hard to go back to freshwater.. unless you're hooking big freshwater fishes.. it's not as fun as saltwater..

When saltwater fishes peel, they peel...

I went through all 15k posts and those 2 quotes I found were the only ones so I guess that would make it "everytime".  Feel free to go through all 15k posts and verify by quoting them all.  You need to quote them all to verifying prove "everytime".   Please verify that Im wrong.
