I believe I had a post here that is probably similar, but here goes,,,,,,,the oldtimers say that suckers are delicious smoked,so I would like to acquire some,catching them with a tip up or rod or hand line would be good by me, I'm willing to try anything. So,do any of you guys have a good way to catch these critters,or does anyone even fish for them at all.i know they can be gotten easy when they are spawning in the spring,but this is illegal, if you have any helpful ideas to share I would appreciate it.thanks
