***FYI***. Jims Bait Shop in Nowata appears to be closed down. No signs of life yesterday (Thur 3/20/14) at 1:30. And Allens at Winganon is closed down for good. A 110 mile drive from B'ville to Big Creek really sucked. Got minnows by Oologah Dam. I fished Double Creek and Big Creek with Shiners on Thur. Not one bite. The water coming in from Kansas down the Verdigris seems to have the Crappie off the bite.
