First thing I would do is make sure you aren't fishing "wrong" for the big stuff amidst the fish you have in front of you. If you aren't throwing an eel, you may be guilty of being "wrong".
One time on the back we were catching a lot of 15-25# fish on live eels, and one of the new yorkers came down with rigged eels. He proceeded to cull a number of 30# plus fish right next to us while we took nothing over 25#.
Hardly coincidence as I've seen the rigged eels take the largest fish in the school many times.
Take home lesson is make sure you're fishing the right way before you leave fish to find fish.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
