Possibly small mullet or what ever i get in the trap.
I have searched everywhere to find out how to put the live fish on the

hook.

Suggestions please

There are several ways to hook the bait.
1- Through the lips. usually from beneath the chin with the hook point
up
toward the eyes.
2- Through the back, Be careful not to hook through the spine.
3- through the meaty area near the tail.
