Big lake favorites

[kenner93]

I am headed down to fish big lake for the first time in 20 years. Going to be there October 17-20. All I ever remember was fishing with live shrimp. What else could a guy use. Would love to get into some top water action. Also if weather permitted would it be a good idea to fish around jetties at night and if so could one catch a shark or would that require going to the rigs
