On the subject of bait, any place sell Creek Chubs/Suckers? They are very hardy and I have caught many Striper with them.

Speaking of sucker, why did the bait shops stop carrying them?

Lake Pointe Motel used to have them, the place at the dam used to always have them, even Bass Pro, and for sure when it was there Bandits Bait shop had them.

Then it just seem like nobody wanted to carry them. Seems they are easy to house and not too sensitive so would stay alive along time at a bait shop.

Or was it that the bait shop caught on that you could buy 12 of these and stripper fish all weekend with them?

I remember trips when I'd get 12 8-10 inch sucker, and spend a weekend fishing putting them from near surface on boards to 90 foot deep, and sometimes they'd have so many hook holes thru their nose and lips I'd ave to hook them thru the top of the back, and they were still frisky.

We got some kinda world wide shortage of suckers going on? (No pun intended for Trump supporters :-) )
