After doing some searching on shiners, I quickly realized there are WAY TOO MANY subspecies of them critters, so I needed to get a better look at one, so I tried luring them closer with bread. They are quite voracious, but could never get them to come close enough to get a decent look. So I figured if they'd eat bread, I might be able to catch one. My hook must be too big because I never could get one stuck.
Did catch a couple decent BG and a healthy WM, tho.
