I take my grandson's out to the mooring balls off Commercial, put out a chum bag in 20' of water, and let the kids go nuts on catching stuff on live shrimp. Last trip they caught a bunch of 12" and up runners that tried to rip the rods out of their hands. Great fun.
At the dock they were active in the bait well for over a week. Some went fishing and came back. They make great deep drop bait, decapitated and cut into chunks which they are still wiggling.
I finally released the last of them.
