Years ago when I came to Galveston to check out UTMB me and a buddy fished the 91st St. pier. I was using live shrimp with no success. There were these kids netting needlefish out of the lights (not ballyhoo. Needlefish have a full-length top jaw, ballyhoo have a long bottom and stubby top jaw). They would go around with a pool net until they got one then fish it right away. Frustrating seeing them pull 4lb trout out right next to you when you are getting skunked!

the hard part of them ballyhoo is toting that generator and lights all the way to the end of the jetty and drinking beer for 8 to 10 hrs waiting to catch live ballyhoo in the lights 3 cast nets tore up in the rocks later you get a ballyhoo or 2 but they do catch PIGS! I work too much to do this anymore but I have all the stuff.MANVEL MOB
