Minnows

Any one know where I can get live minnows in Santa Rosa? Want to go to Mendo but I want to be on the lake before 8 when Ron's opens.

Sleep in.  The fish haven't been out in the am until 9ish.  Be at Ron's at 0759.

Thanks Sean what's the best way to hook up with you so I can buy a seat.

Sean, have you ever had luck using a minnow trap for shad minnows at mendo? Be nice to have a bunch of live bait to go around. Flyline a live minnow and then toss lures ( if you have a two rod stamp )

Brian-I have tried, and to date I haven't done well at all.  You will definitely want live bait...for sure.  I always work bait and topwater on the same trip.  Get the 2 rod stamp.

I recall seeing a comment about the "two rod" stamp before.  Can I get it here in Monterey or is it only available at the lake?

Pat - most sporting goods stores and tackle shops should have 'em.

I got mine from Big 5 Sporting Goods....
