Oh yeah, be sure and use the small size minnows. Normally I take about 6 dozen or more small minnows and can use them all up in a few hours. Bluegill will readily eat a small minnow, and if you get into a school of yellow bass you'll burn 'em up quick!!! The channel cats might be starting on their feeding binge before the spawn, so you might try a couple of riprap banks just in case!
