Does anyone catch their own shiners on the MN river? I have caught a few nice ones on light takle but just once in a while. I also saw a guy throwing a cast net getting quite a few at a time but i know that is illegal. Does anyone use dip nets or have any other techniques? Just not having luck with bullies or suckers and its a pain to get them for every outing.

Find those guys who were using the cast net. Identify yourself as a DNR Officer and "collect their bait and net for evidence." Boom you got yourself bait and a cast net you cant use!
