Strongly disagree with this

Go to the Shell station in Oakland. They let you dip your own and don’t care how many you get. They watch you do it. Good place to get bait and do business. Tell em 5 dozen and dip 8 dozen. They don’t want you to count em. It’s considered a loss leader to them.

With all the guides I saw there the other day, I’m almost positive it isn’t much of a secret.

Would be a good place to get minnows tomorrow if going to clear creek . 34 this morning with two keepers . got a great count at "SKY MART" AND $2 .00 a dozen .

Well don't go to outfitters. Bought 4 dzn large today and the biggest ones were the size of my finger. The only thing big about them was the price.

From what I've been hearing, everyone selling minnows around Butla is about the same....poor count and high prices.

Outfitter's was a good place for minnows for a long time. Even Spring of 2017 they were still ok. I wonder what has changed with them? If people quit buying minnows there, I bet they'll straighten up.
