Hi All,
Do toad fish work as a live bait? I did some practising with my cast net today and managed to catch 5 toad fish, heres hoping that now I've got the basics, some better quality bait may follow.
Cheers
Michael

I know of an ex pro fisherman that used to use toad fish on his lines for catching snapper in Port Phillip bay.Personally never witnessed or tried it just his say so.

surely not ive never seen anything chase a toadie even as crab bait they get no customers [i put a hugh green one in a pot]
many years ago off cape moreton i witnessed about six sailfish that had herded up a patch of toadfish and were howing right in to them.
last year i caught a lot of tailor at mud is that had toad fish in there guts when i filleted them so yes some fish do eat them but would you catch them if the toad was on your hook that is anybodys guess

on the plus side you wouldn't need a float
I was wondering if they can still puff up with a hook through themon the plus side you wouldn't need a float
