Very cool! What are they caught on? Bait?
They're plankton feeders, so the only way to catch them is snagging.
Typically 95% are caught in the spring when the turkeys start gobbling and water is warming up. They leave the reservoirs and head up the rivers. That is when most everybody is in the rivers trying to snag one. 4 ounce weight below a big treble, 40 lb line or so, cast out, jerk, relax, jerk, relax, jerk, relax. It is great sport to go to the Neosho River in the Miami, OK city park and watch every redneck within 100 miles that gathers there to try and snag one from the bank.
This guide only targets them in the deep water in the cold months. He uses Dipsy Divers or similar to get the treble hook down to the proper depth they're holding at.
