Thread: blunt nose minnows

Many many years ago (early 70's),,,me and friend,,would seine minnows for a bait shop that paid us top money for chubs, blunt nose, and soft craws. Bigger chubs were in high demand by the bass fishermen. I don't know of many if any, selling them any more..but its a super lively minnow. I am seining some to use on the river especially for saugers in a couple of weeks. We hit a lot of creeks around Cat. area,,and Mansfield, Rocky Fork area, and lots that dumped into Racoon below dam area..(hint, hint) I grew up in that area and cut my teeth on all those rivers and 2 lakes. Had a uncle that built a couple of cabins at Mansfield and as a kid lived on that river in the summers.
