Anyone ever liveline a cunner?
A striper i filleted this weekend had about a 5 inch cunner in it, along with about 20 crabs. Was wondering if anyone has tried em for bait? Its the only one i have ever found in a belly. Not real sure if it is a common food or not, you would think if they liked to eat cunners they would fill up on them.

In my younger know-it-all years, I laughed at a guy livelining a choggy at the canal run while everyone else was livelining herring.....He got the last laugh!! I caught two cod in the canal a few years ago and both had choggies in their bellies. About the only thing I have not found in stripers belly is an eel...Go figure?

Eels, bivalve bodies, worms, very small fish, etc. are digested more quickly and easily than large fish covered in scales and shelled invertebrates. This could skew any at-home stomach content analysis of stripers, or of any other fish.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.
