Those will (VERY occasionally) feed on carcasses dropped overboard (when the sharks don't beat them to it ;-)
Old pier memory: several schools were feeding on carcasses one day (you could see them gather up on it in the clear water) and we started catching them on gold hook rigs dropped in right behind the carcass.
Way, way, way back I remember catching them at my great aunt's house on Dog River on cane pole (line & #8 hook) with wigglers.
But my aunt used to 'chum' them daily with rabbit pellets and cotton seed cake.
A two pound mullet puts up quite a tussle on a cane pole!

I'd imagine after weeding through 500 ladyfish, the cast net would be the way to go. Them varmints would eat their own shadow.

You could catch them on onion rings, fried okra and french fries in October in the ICW by Lulu's. At one point they looked like pond raised catfish being fed.

I've read a bit on catching them from English sources and they would add as bait choices bread balls on small hooks. Fine leaders and florocarbon is recommended in clear water but they sometimes use a small float for distance.
