Thanks for the link, ewest. Yes, Shorty, most people call goldeyes "skipjacks" around here. Skipjack herring are in the Missouri River up to Gavins Point Dam but not common. Goldeyes are common but not valued although they are considered one of the best fighting and eating fish in Canada. Mooneyes are the Eastern species of this group. Although they won't reproduce in a lake, they are great fun to catch.
Surely someone has used skipjack herring for bait for catfish. Anyone?
