I set out some fish traps in order to catch some Utah chubs to use for cut bait. I baited the the traps with bread and checked them the next day. No fish, but these dang crawdads were in the traps. Who knew they ate bread? Anyway not being one to pass up an opportunity I introduced them to a pot of crab boil and had a most enjoyable snack last night. That's what they get for messing around in my minnow traps.
Is it Friday yet?

What are you using cut bait for? I'm allergic to shellfish so enjoy your snack but if I caught them they would be free to go.

Cutbait works well when tipping a jig for cutthroat trout. If they are being picky, a little cutbait often solves the problem.

It's typical to tip the jigs with whole Lahontan Redsides when jigging after Lake Trout in Lake Tahoe and Donner lake... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lahontan_redsideMinnow trap + dog kibble + bait for the day
