I hand picked those Minnows 

too funny Sony!!   

Jed~ May i inquire how on the housing of the minnows? i know they are strong, but wanted to know if you did something *special* 

Too funny actually. When me and Sonny got back from our Clear Lake trip, I gave
those minnows to my next door neighbor. He kept it for a week and used some at
Lake Berryessa. The following weekend my neighbor gave it back when he saw me
loading up the yak for the delta. Me and Dave used it but the striper didn't seemed
to want it. The striper chose the mudsuckers over the jumbo minnows. Dave kept
the minnows I believed outside in his little pond. Two days after that we used the
rest of the bait in Berryessa. I may have had some leftovers again if I hadn't had
so many snags. Sorry I got sidetracked there. Anyhow, I kept those minnow for a
week inside my garage in a cooler with an electric aerator. Come to think of it, I
just remembered that I also have a pond in my backyard. I forgot all about it. I am
going to experiment on some minnows to see if I can keep some and see if they will grow or survive for a longer time.

I was wondering that also

The way you guys use minnows maybe you should start a secret agent breeding pond

Anyone remember the day that "two came back!"

We got some left over Minnows on that day and Dave put them back in his pond for next month after he get back from his trip 

The saga ends sadly, it's awful to report the remaining agents expired. I just discovered their demise yesterday. They were fed just before our trip down to Quartsite Arizona I may have poisoned them with 99 Cent store, AquaBuddies, Goldfish Floating Pellets.
Sorry Folks. dave...

I'm sure it was the freezing temperature we've been having. No worries Dave. We'll just have to
buy some more healthy ones for our next lake trips.

I've had some medium size agents sitting in a bucket in my garage for a week. I have not fed them but had to buy some new batteries for my pump.  I think it will cost me more to keep them alive than I spent to buy them. I won't fish this weekend due to my anniversary so I think I might bring em to the river for freedom.
