All we used to use were hardheads as bait.

I never knew there was any use for hardheads.
Damnit I hate a hardhead.

over 2/3rds hardhead catfish which seems a little ridiculous to me. Never thought of using that as bait.
Trick is to cut there fins off. Gives them more action. Used that for bait for many years chasing ling.
Oh, best size are around 8" long.Posted on 4/23/14 at 8:12 pm to fishfighter

Right at the meat or just the end off?

I got shanked in the side of the foot by one of those frickers last year.
Felt like my foot was in a furnace all night.

If you take a regular pair of fishing pliers, you just grab the barb, break it, and it usually pulls off clean. Do that for all three and you have a harmless, yet wonderful cobia bait. Its still weird sticking your hand in the livewell though 
. You gotta trust no one stuck a fish in there when they forgot to cut em.
