at my fishing hole below the lake fairfield dam we have started catching golden shiners and I was wondering how the larger ones do in captivity?

This causes them to hurt their noses, and requires the use of a night light to heal. :smile:

:laugh: 've caught 4 to 6lbs LMB with a 6 inch native, a 8-10lb LMB has no problem with bigger bait. It's even worse when a lousy ~2lb fish hits it. I have a 7'6" heavy/action stick with 20lb line on a baitcaster to throw anything bigger than 5inches. And thats up north!!! Guys in Cali and farther south throw swimbaits that size Look up Castaic Swimbaits. I ain't joking! You need a pool cue to cast them.

I'm confused, is there a problem with wanting to keep golden shiners in an aquarium?

he means I think that they get too big we catch tons of them down at the dam along with greens and rock bass on spam(the british food) and wax worms

In an effort to avoid international incident, I'd like to go on the record saying that Hormel is responsible for Spam (a fine meat product) and our friends across the big pond might take offense to such comments.

This is probably why he thinks of spam as a british food:
