i catch silver fish about a foot long, rowing along the beach on the bay, (exersize) and dragging a little silver spoon or castmaster for laughs. Fun to catch, they are not in my book, (i'm in Venezuela) but eat silver Sardines (Canibals?) I've seen some pretty good sized fish chasing these right out of the water and wondered if i could go to a stronger line and find a way to tie one of the little fish on as bait. I've seen guys do this with Bonita, for Wahoo, by cutting the tail off and splitting the body up a ways to let it swim flatter i guess, but don't know how to place a hook. Can i use these dead, or is there a way to use them live?
