Get any pics of how you rigged the live bait?
I'm going to be salmon fishing with live bait soon. I need to make up a rig I'm thinking small treble hook placed in the nose or maybe the back of the bait. The leader goes to a bead chain with a 4-6oz weight attached to the bead chain to get the bait down. A circle hook might be better but it would need to be tiny or a little bait won't swim naturally.
It's rare to scoop live bait in the salt but it happens and the next time it does I want to be ready. I should research how they used to do it.
