I eschew live bait whenever possible. It's messy, too much fiddlefucking around and I no longer have the stomach to use a "creature" as bait; nightcrawler/crawfish excluded: NO reason this wouldn't work on a Texas Rig or Mustad swim hook:

I've recently caught walleye on texas rigged creature baits while bass fishing. Switched to it to target walleye and had decent success.

Having you say that means a lot. Sometimes I feel like I'm pissing in the wind.

When the large-mouth bass were spawning, we would hook a frog through the lip with a weedless hook and no weight. You could see the bass nests in the shallow water so we would just cast the frog near the nest and let it swim around on the surface until mama bass inhaled it. Tons of fun.

Tried a few different artificial frogs after seeing all them they were eating. Still nothing works as good as a Berkeley paddle tail. Who knows.
