When Fishing, should Power Bait Float above the water when it is on the hook or should it sink?

Answer 1

KCDude,

I'm not sure which power bait you're talking about, but weather it's a worm, lizzards, or catfish bait... it should sink with just the weight of a hook.  All of these baits are best fished on the bottom unless you want to fish a worm as a topwater - then you should hook it "wacky" style or use light weight hooks.  There are better soft plastic baits to use for topwater if that's your goal.  Good Luck fishing!!
