Well put. Thats what I was trying to point out and you're only going to save $20 for a whole week.
I get my bait at either Moors or Ken's Bait (I think that's the name) besides that Moor's has ice cream (a staple of life) and Ken's is like a fisherman's toy store. That guy has everything. One thing I like about Moor's is they have the nicest kids working there. If it weren't for the tourist what else would they do.....get in trouble. I do like to support local businesses.

Points well taken. I am planning on making several trips dwn in the next couple months.
I think your right with the hassle of transporting that many minnows and keeping them all alive it wont be worth it.
Thanks for all the info. I cant wait to get there and get on the water.
Good Luck to All

I think I paid $1.09/ dozen (Small) last Thursday at Bass n Gass...

She said she was going to try at get Matt to set a price per pound soon...

They also had Rosie Reds but I don't remember how much she said they were...(less than $2 dozen tho I'm sure)..

Last Fall,Moors was aboout$1.60 per doz for mediums.They were very generous when scooping out (not counting, probably got 3 doz for each paid doz) minnows were frisky and kept well!
