If launching at Catawba try Jeanette's on Weyh road.
Thought she closed, not sure, just what I've heard.
Jeanette's is still open, purchased minnows there last weekend
Thanks everybody ! We went to Richards this morning since it's right across the street from the motel. Good bait and nice people.
Fish as much as you can...we're not here forever.
The other day I had small minnows that died and got soft. I cut a perch strip about 2 in long and a 1/4 in wide. I ran the hook through the skin. No more buying minnows... the strip is tough and when you get a bite you don't have to reel up to check the bate... try it!
That's good to know. I ran out of shiners the other day.
