Wht kind of bait fish r being banned? if theyre like shad, try to find where the crappie r cause shad tend to follow crappie. Id use a bait net and at random times at specific spots to catch em, note to where ur getting them at, what time, timeof year,.etc. If they r a type of minnow, id set live minnow traps near fallen trees,stumps in channels, and in lilly pads. thats just my opinion so hopefully i helped you out towards your problem. p.s. baitfish tend to not go out in deeper water like 5ft cause of fenicky perch and walleye.
