Hi labbybass,
Burbot can be caught on most baits that you will use for walleye, pike or perch.
I have had them hit on fresh frozen smelts, shiner minnows, squid and soft plastic single, double tail or swimbaits tipped with some scent, or scented them selves.
Fish close to or on the bottom and you should do OK as long as your in the right area at the right time of year.
