What about shiners that you purchase? It would appear that the same limit applies to those as well.Also, just as a guideline, how many dozens of "medium" shiners do you guys think is 2 quarts?
Thanks for the clarification!I got out on Tuesday of this week for an hour or so.Bait was abundant only a few feet from shore. Managed a dozen nice Goldens on rod and reel.Floating the trap with a coke bottle didnt work as well as with a small poland spring water bottle. This effort made a huge difference as the trap was bullhead free and I got about 3 dozen small commons with one toss!Looking to get back out beginning of next week with the warm up.
Possession limits would only apply to bait you personally trap and not purchase from a bait dealer.
How long does trapped bait usually stay alive in a holding tank? I use to trap shiners for daily use in the spring, summer and fall but never over winter. Also, what do you feed them, if anything?
