Bullhead Catching
kingfshr16:
This may sound a little weird but we were bullheadin' in a little pond in syracuse and the action slowed down, so as a joke I grabbed a hot dog broke a piece off and BAM! we started hittin fish like crazy, anyone else every try this and had luck?

I usually use #2 hooks and nightcrawlers. Chicken hearts work good as do chicken liver and cut fish.

We usually set up with two hooks with night crawlers and leeches. When they're running hard (not this weekend of course :'() they will often go nuts for one or the other. Once we figure out which they want, we rig just that bait. I've never had a lot of luck with any of the "weird" baits for bullheads.
Usually use #2 or #4 hooks. If the perch are being annoying, I'll go with the bigger hooks. Perch also seem to avoid leeches.
I have best luck in the hour or so after dark.

Cenobite,
I have only recently "discovered" leeches for Bullhead bait. Previously thought Panfish where the most likely targets when fishing with leeches. Yours sounds to be a sensible approach. Now I just have to get out and try wetting some worms . . .

I use leeches alot because they are more durable than worms and you can keep your line wet instead of rebaiting after each fish with wormsPERCHPULLER
