Default Re: Question on Herring (Alewives)

Capt Lou said it all, although shocking herring sometimes will kill a weaker bait fish, by shocking tossing bait into fridge water after being kept in a much warmer bait bucket..But most of the time lack of oxygen seems to be the culprit most times when fishing deep..One little tip if the bait fish come back with mouth flared wide open thats usually a sign your fishing to deep..its like the bait is taking its last gasp..
