You all-species guys are missing out IMO. You keep catching this awesome bait, but never use it for the greater challenge... catch a 50+lb fish on a bait you just caught. I've done that, twice. Feels really good when it happens.

You assume too much. I keep a few Skipjack for cutbait. I haven’t created piscatorial alchemy to the tune of 50 lbs, yet. We have caught bowfin, channel cats, and blues.

I bet they would be good bait for the blue cats in Grand.

I have a buddy that lives not too far away from Grand, we keep talking about chasing the blues, but have not yet done it.  Excellent eating fish too.

                That lake must be jam packed with them. Every year while chasing the white bass with the fly rod up the tributaries I seem to catch at least one. Talk about fun on the long stick. It's a hoot #remembertotakeabiggernet.

             You do a fine job. 😁    Plus we get to laugh at each other. I assume you were talking about me on the net?

It has been at least a dozen years since I fished for them, but I'd go over in late September/early October.  I'd net some shad for bait, and then slowly drag either a whole shad, or a chunk on the bottom.  Limit was 10, and If things were right, I would limit.  2-3 lb. blues with a channel cat every now and then.  Depth finder would show them on the bottom almost continuously.  

Only negative was the rec boats after about 9 AM.  Even in October there is a bunch of them.
