They do that here but soak special trotlines in no bait with hooks about every 4''. But is commercial tackle and is dangerous to run. The no bait mixtures vary but is sometimes old used motor oil with things like sweet anise oil, bannna oil, asfidity, wintergreen oil, and such added. It catches rough fish and Catfish. It is a good way to catch big Flatheads and Spoonbills.Quote:
