I just spoke with the bait shop, they are stocked up at our request, and they will be open 8am to 8pm.  I suggest getting your fishys the night before, they will do fine overnight.

Hi Sean..

On the kastmasters, do you recommend a single hook or a treble,  and what size also.

See ya soon

Use a small Kastmaster...1/4 oz is the best.  I usually put on a treble that is just a little larger than the original.

What is the cost of bait?

Are they golden shiners?

They are shiners, I think the big ones are about a $1.25, you only need 4-6 for a day.

Logistics questions:

Is there running water where we will all be camping??
Are there picnic tables or should we bring our own tables??

There is one or two faucets, and a handful of table.  There will be porta potties, fush toilets and shwers are in the main cg about .3 miles away

Anyone going to be able to make a bait run Friday night and store some bait for those of us thinking of coming up early on Saturday?  Last time Mooch did this for me, but he ended up letting them all go ...

....Dustin / rockhopper loaned me his "defective" bait bucket - I left the bait bucket in the water - tied to a tree - the locking hinge did NOT lock  :smt013 ...and I found out too late  :smt011 But Dustin and Bob were nice enough to help pay for the escapees.

I can grab you some bait - how many do you need?

Dustin and Bob helped pay?!?  I left them a $20 to give to you for the lost bait too.   :smt003  Gotta laugh about that one.

1/2 dozen frisky shiners please, not too big as it sounds like the bait is small out there.  Match the hatch.  Thanks Mooch.
