I agree. It is really hard to get "good" bait now. You know the kind of bait I am talking about...Not this stuff that has so much freezer burn you can't identify it. Fresh bunker is really hard to get.
The problem is most of the big bait is gone from inshore waters. I just don't see schools of big bunker, shad, herring or mullet anymore. Sometimes I see shad but still not in huge masses. I remember walking along P-town beachs and seeing school after school of bunker.. catching fresh bait involved casting a weighted treble hook.
I suggest you move to eels (or catch scup) we have not wiped them out yet.
