Can you catch lake herring in the summer. They are the best bait for catfish.

You can, but it can be tough since they are a cold-water fish and will feed suspended in the water column.

I know of people fishing Lake Huron around Perry Sound and also the St. Mary’s River, ON that target them in the summer time. Helps to have a reliable fishfinder and to use 1/32 oz. jigs with tiny pieces of small minnows.
