Did I just answer my own question? Is there anything on the list you would throw out?

Nice bait brah. You've got some genuinely interesting life experiences there.
Now just figure out the best way to drop it, and let us know how it goes.

Before the catching big game, you should have laid your small bait.

Small Bait catches the fish's attention. It get's them interested in a particular area of the pond, but they still might not be sold on biting.Small Bait consists of random stuff that you do in your life that's nothing for you, but you do it anyway - that's what makes your interesting. You usually drop them casually into the conversation.

Examples could be:

- I am not sure which dog breed to get, there's a girl in my language class who has 'X' dog.
- Interestingly enough, this book I'm reading said 'X Y Z'


Big Bait is designed to get the fish to bite and hook them. These are usually stuff that makes you a big deal, has been a profound/interesting experience that has helped shape a big part of who you are. Again, this is entirely down to personal experience.

Examples could be:

- When I lived in Scandinavia...(note you never say the country - that's up to her to find out)
- When I was travelling in Asia


There are a million and one ways to drop it into a conversation to make it feel natural and congruent to your personality. The only way is to experiment to find out what works for you.

The other day I picked up a girl from the street, we were talking about places to go out, I said something like this.

Me: 'Sometimes it's complicado to decide where to go out.'

Her: 'Oh you speak Spanish?'

Me: 'I used to live there.'

Her: 'Oh where?!'

Note - I didn't say I spoke another language, I just dropped a word.

- It transpires she used to live there and we spoke the rest of the conversation in Spanish, which is where I excel, because I speak it very well.

The trick is to steer the conversation to an area where you excel and demonstrate your knowledge/excellence of it in a short amount of time to consistently bag girls during the day.

My last 3 numbers in the day - spoke to a girl on the train in French, a girl on the street in Spanish and a girl in the gym.

Decide where you're strongest and exploit it.

Ha that cover letter

I think my resume includes that exact wording, I should probably change that.



I was wondering about how to construct my small bait but now I get it.

Start with one piece of big bait in a specific situation.

Coffee shop? Street? Grocery store?

Some will be more relevant depending on the venue.

a lot of the most successful baits seem to be related to traveling. unfortunately i dont have any experiences like that yet. what are some of the successful baits you've used not related to traveling?
