I almost always use a seine and get my bait from the area I'm fishing in. But, soaking some hot dogs for a couple days is too easy no to try.

Had some great luck last weekend catching wipers at an outlet that was running water. Caught 7 total, and lost a few others. I was fishing with a pretty light crappie set up. I think wipers are the hardest fighters I have ever caught. A couple were 6 lbs and the rest were between 4 and 6 lbs.
Also took out my kayak hunting crappie. They were pretty spread out, not yet on the banks, though some males were definitely starting to build nests. It was my first time using my new Garmin fish finder on my kayak. That thing makes such a huge difference. |

My fishing buddy has a cast net he uses when we go. Helluva lot easier than a seine.

Clinton outlet has some good sized Wiper but they all get fished out by bucket people every spring. It will also have nice flathead in it if it runs long and high enough for them to get up from the Kansas River. |

Decided to take the day off and head down to the Kaw this morning. Went out yesterday and had no luck for hours, not one single bite.
Hit the Perry outlet for shad, i caught about 60 in one cast of my net. One toss for more bait than i needed all day. Amazing. About 45 minutes into fishing something smashes an 8" shad i had on a circle hook. 20 minute or so fight and i pull in a blue cat about 30lbs. New personal best fish. Great morning so far. Bait and recast, and hook a nice channel about 7 or 8 lbs. About 20 minutes or so after i get my line back in the water i feel a flight bite and then nothing. I notice my line is slowly moving up stream where the water kind of swirls and i start to reel it in. I think I'm snagged for about 1 minute until the snag starts fighting back. I have a Rippin Lips 8ft heavy rod, Abu Garcia c7000 reel and 50lb mono. This is the fish I've been waiting my entire life to catch. Unfortunately, after a 30 minute battle Mr. Flathead won. He broke my line. I've never felt a fish like that on the end of my line. I've never broken my personal best, and left disappointed until today. It had to have been a flathead or blue cat over 50lbs. That 30lber i caught earlier didn't fight like that. I thought i had everything i needed to land that fish, but luck didn't smile upon me at that moment. I'm still sad. |
