swamppy,
That ugly fish you caught is known as a Needle Garr. When you have alot of them swimming in the area you are fishing you won't catch much else but them. They can be fun to catch if you just want to catch somthing.
When you are fishing for other spiesies you will have to use some form of weight to get you below the surfice. Next time you catch one of them shad cut it up and use it for your bait. With live shrimp I like to use minimum weight and a float to keep it off of the bottom. Depending on the clairity of the water will determan the depth of your bait. I have had the best results over 3ft and just below eye sight.
To efectivly fish with out weight it is best done when there is limmited or no winds and during times of tide change.(eather high or low, both times work well.)
I have had good lugk with both techneekes for many diffrent spiesies. The specks and Croker are the most common.[
