Bait

I couldn't have said it better myself!
If you ain't slingin eels, give them a choice of baits. A live PORGY is a good choice. A live BLACKFISH will last FOREVER, and if you use legal size, will eliminate small fish. Bunker, Butterfish, Herring, Shad, Mackerel, Clam, Squid, just don't use the same thing on both rods. You can find interesting baits in a fish store, it doesn't have to come from a tackle shop. Although tackle shops can tell you where to soak it and fish stores can't.

HINT: Buy a half dozen Bloodworms, and bring a light rod with small hooks to make bait. If you fish from a pier, just try each pole, and soon enough you will have live bait. Bergalls work well! Even a Sundial or a Tommycod is preferable to sometrhing that is dead. When you catch your bait where you are going to fish, you're REALLY "fishing the food chain".
