Went to Fiesta yesterday to get some buffalo and they had it for .99 a pound pretty cheap bait but also saw they had a lot of Mullet was wondering if anyone has ever used it, i usually use bait that is native to the waters that i fish, but you never know it might work?

Hey WW call your local HEB seafood dept mgr they can get buffalo!!! It's $4.00 a pound but that's still cheaper than running all over the lake and chunking the net this time of year.

Them Bluecats will eat mullet BUT they like SkipJack (LadyFish) even Mo Betta!!! Next time your to the Saltwater don't forget to save ALL them pesky Skipjack and cut'em up in 1" strips and give'em a try. We would use this on Trotlines when I was in highschool and between Skipjack & Carp nothing worked better.

Talk to the manager. The details are per the buyer they order it on Sat and it arrives Sun in a 15# box from the coast with 4-5 buffalo in it. The shelf life is 7 days and they will fillet it with the skin on.

So if I ordered it tomorrow is there any way I could have it by Saturday or do they only order certain days? I honestly doubt the manager will do it though.. for some reason the people at this HEB seafood just dont seem to care at all.
