I've never used live minnows before but am going to try it tomorrow.
The store only sells Toughies. How do you hook them and is a bream buster
with a bobber sufficient?

I hook them through the lips or behind the dorsal fin. Sometimes it makes a difference.

Wondering if these are same as what we get for Stripers. He calls them black salties, but “toughies” is good description. They could live in a bucket for a week I think

This is what I do if I'm going to be reeling them, as in shallow water fishing. If I'm vertically fishing structure as in bridge fishing I'll usually hook them under or behind the dorsal fin.

I like to have the point of the hook ^up^.

I'm making the assumption that we are talking about Crappie fishing here.

No. Those are a type of goldfish. Toughies are actually a fat head minnow.

To the OP, keep em covered and cool or add a bubbler. They're tougher than shiners, but still touchy.

Freeze a bottle of water tonight to put into the bucket with them tomorrow. Keeping them cool will keep them alive.

I typically peg em through the eyes.

yep, try both ways


Take your kids hunting instead of hunting your kids.

I'd rather be LOST in the woods than FOUND in the city.

Drive a hybrid, I need your gas.

I usually go thru the eyes. Last time I got some there was a couple dozen that were gold in color. That day the Crappie hit those gold ones and hardly noticed the others.

This, so they can open their mouth and breathe. I do the same with shad for smallmouth.
