    Default Minnows

    Guys how is the bait at the shop on 53 & 163 ? Looking for minnows for perch when we come out Thursday. Is'nt there also a bait shop up 53 toward Millers dock also ? Thanks

    Not sure about 163/53, that would be Rickards, the one on up a little farther on 53 towards ferry is called Herbs, a small carryout. He usually gives ya a real good count and nice minnows lately. We have been getting 2-3 inch minnows, just bring scissors and cut em in half, work great.

    Thanks everybody ! We went to Richards this morning since it's right across the street from the motel. Good bait and nice people.

    Default minnows

    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.
