Sharks are not only very endangered, but most species are dangerously high in mercury content and are thereby dangerous for human consumption. Perhaps look to something else to catch. (reefannie)
It depends on the fish. Most fish will prefer a live bait over a dead one so even if you use live bait if there is no wiggle left in it best to change it.
whenever i go fishing i like to use tiny bits of hot dogs.
While live (suckers, minnows, leeches, maggots, worms, grubs) or dead bait (suckers and minnows) tend to be moresuccessfulartificialbaits are very effective as well.

you can never have to much bait when you go on a fishing trip.There is one rule in gettin bait get it freash my theory is if you would not eat dont feed it to the fish or even better get same live bait .
Live minnows, like chubs or shiners.
Live minnows work best, but many are taken on the various type of jigs, made for this species, that imitate minnows.
Live bait
Yes. Bass feed on any small fish they can catch. Shiners make good live bait for bass.
I'm not sure, but I usually just use live worms and they work really good for me...
live shrimp if you have a bubble box and a plastic bucket. you can buy a bubble box at most bait & tackle stores near the beach. They will show you how to use them at the store. They are about $10 and require two D batteries to work. If you do not have access to live bait I would suggest using dead shrimp or squid. Live bait works best but dead bait is better than no bait.
