I have used cheap hot dogs w squirt of garlic juice w good results. Live shad is best if you can net them. As pricey as goldfish are they really produce. I’ve used them on my noodle jugs and have nearly always caught old whiskers.
You don't want to get caught with goldfish here.
$120 fine. Plus$20+/fish.
They don't want them to get loose and breed.
