Not sand fleas. Ghost shrimp; there is a difference.

[skswig1]

you mean sand fleas?

Ghost Shrimp! Others around us were using bull minnows and squid, but we had the bait. You can't buy the ghost shrimp, you have to go out during low tide and wade along the beach and suck them out of the sand. We use a homemade device from PVC pipe to suck them out of the sand.

That was awesome to see the family doing this. I'm jealous. What were you using.
