Shack Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I have found once you start to target small bullies, every one you get is huge. Then you get small bullies when going for larger ones. Funny? I am still looking for a constant supply of bullies . When you find them let us know. RR56, You do not fish the Croix with a guy named Mike do you?

Mr Special Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Whereever you are catching your regular size bullies. Try throwing out some minnow traps over night. The bigger guys can't get into the traps, so you'll mainly have the 2"-5"'s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainman Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I know of a spot that has hundreds if not thousands of little bullheads 3-4" long. Are you using these on lakes for those eyes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjbassmaster Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 You could go to Hanska or any of the smaller lake slough type things by new ulm. If you are up to a 1/2 hour drive you could go to butterfield lake out side of butterfield. There are millions of 2 to 4 inch bullheads in there.

riverrat56 Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 I've got big bullheads, so if anyone needs any let me know, I can find you some and you can take all you want. I would surely trade for some small ones. I'm a walleye guy, it's a sickness... tj, your on the money with your lake, but the small bullheads are hard to come by, alot of 5-7"er's swimming around. I will try a minnow trap, what should I bait it with? Or nothing at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Special Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I just used a regular minnow trap you can buy at any sporting goods store. I think they only run about $10. A lot of people I know use dry dog food, but I like using scraps of meat or fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have plenty to last through the weekend. The fish have been very active, the action has been great lately. I just need to get one of those big girls in the boat! It would be possible to go through 1-2 dozen bullheads per person in a night. Hopefully a few bigger ones want to play tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
