Yesterday,while checking out my favorite crappie lake,our one and only bait shop has closed down.This particular shop was the only one for many miles that sells live minnows of variety,I'm not happy about it,so it looks like I will be using more artificial,and trapping what I can.
Our state law only permits a possession limit of 50 minnows unless it's a state approved business,or minnows are purchased from a state lisenced business with a sales receipt .
