Okay, Camilla, I have GOOD news and BAD news! Te GOOD news is that the Palmetto bugs would probably make great bait, and not only that, would probably attach automatically to the hook! The BAD news, is, who would want to EAT a fish that just ate a gigantic cockroach? I think this would be a great day to start a diet, as I just lost my apetite! :-P
