Jimmo, the next time your out there fishing. Don't be afraid to pull up to someone that is making bait. Help them by chasing the schools toward there boat and i'm sure they'll have no problem hooking you up, last year we made bait for that aaron martins guy, his boat and truck combo is crazy. I don't mind cruising up to shore and sharing some as long as they don't keep Largemouth. Also, as long as you hold your rod and watch your line you'll hook em in the corner everytime. I have a 12 foot western aluminum boat that is set up with a saltwater bait tank with a thru hull pick up and a rule pump. It keeps anchovies, sardines and squid alive all day so shads not a problem. Post next time your going to be out there and maybe we can buddy boat. I can get you a good deal on a net but its still pretty steep......Warren
