They will be at 2.34' and you have to have a cast net that is 7.367' wide that sinks .0013" a second. If you have those numbers you will be good. Just put out a LIGHT OUT AND CATCH BAIT!!!!!!!!

basically just have a light shining in the water. the one i use isnt made to go underwater, some are. i clip mine to one of the boards under the dock. you will see the bait fish swimming under the light, and there will be more just outside of it that you cant see. the hard part is throwing the cast net, i managed a bunch of alewives once, but havent made a throw good enough since to catch any LOL. oddly i was throwing a bigger net when i caught the alewives and getting much more spread on it than the net i try and use now. but i dont have a good bait tank to keep them alive, eventually they die and i use them whole for catfish or as cutbait for catfish...

you have to make sure youre throwing at something first, no need to throw at dead water, unless youre just practicing

There are plenty of videos on Youtube that can teach you how to throw a net. Get a net, watch a few videos, and give it a try by practicing in your back yard. Like everything else in fishing, it just takes practice.
