Inshore With Herring

Spent Thanksgiving week at the coast and the fishing was really good, so heading back down this weekend. Normally I don’t care to fish live bait much when fishing for reds and trout in the winter, but I’m thinking about bringing down a dozen or so BB’s and try them under a cork just for kicks.

Anyone ever tried any live herring inshore before?

Have never used them inshore but i have caught my fair share of grouper and snapper on them…ha…dont see why it wouldnt work. Just another silver bait fish.:wink:

I’ve used herring for cobia (Threadfin). It might be worth a shot as live action begins to become scarce. Can you keep them alive for the trip?
