Thanks! Yeah the cast net is a blast. I have as much fun chasing bait as I do the stripers and hybrids. You just never know what you'll pull up in that net. If I ever catch a snake in it, I may just have to go buy a new net (and a new pair of underpants
) As far as the LED light, I wired it so that I can unplug it easily outside of the tank so that it isn't drawing unnecessary power from my battery. I never thought about the light stressing the shad.

Does the light stay on all the time? Just wondering if that "aggravates" the bait more, since I've always been told to keep the lid on the minnow bucket to calm the fish down so they live longer. I figure the same principle would apply here.
I'm still working on my cast net technique, but I've been really enjoying practicing with it off and on over the past couple years. It adds a lot of fun to fishing trips. When I go to the beach, it's even better, since you never know what you'll catch.
