I catch them in a dip net and use them for white bass. I had to resort to that because they would not eat any thing else. They wont stay alive on a hook, so it does not really matter how you hook them. I just hooked them through the mouth and jig em up and down near the surface. Walmart has a jig that looks exactly like a ghost minnow I bought a couple of em but have not used them yet.

When I used to fish live bait a lot , I would always catch a few ghost minnows , and spot tails. It seemed to me if the fish were biting well, they would get bit. There would be days that every rod with shad would be active and the rods with minnows would never bend.
