If you could find emerald shiners in Michigan could you bring them back into Ohio?

Illegal. Bait cave usually has a good supply. When we fish michigan waters. Put in at state launch site down the road . By the way are you doing your fishing excursion this year. Count me in for 3.

Even though they areally in Ohio waters, none of us truly know where the bait originally came from, baby Asian carp look so much like emerald shiners it's not even funny, not worth the risk of one being shipped and turned loose, it's not hard to bag the left overs, freeze for later or just toss out.
