Last year I found it difficult to find suckers for the opener that were in the 12 - 14" range that I didn't need to speak with a loan officer first.. I plan on fishing the mad chain (lake x) with 100 other muskie fishermen & women, so I would like to purchase them in that area. Can anyone tell me where I can find bait in that size range a few day's prior to May 2nd ?

A mid day break to watch the KY derby at a local gin mill or OTB (even better)wouldn't suck, but it will be impossible talk my musky nut fishin buddy (yeah I'm talkin bout you scotty!) into leaving. Unless,,,, the waitresses are topless, then he would be off the water in a jiffy! Any suggestions on this would be very helpfull as well!

Best of luck this season!

Dorn on midvale sometimes gets them that big for the opener another place that may have them is Harley's Liquor right by Olbrich. Last year Dorn had some for opener, I would call them ahead of time and ask them if they will have any.

I find the best thing do do is keep a aquarium in my garage, my fiend has on in the basement. We always have live bait!

Speak with your local bait shop, if they carry them in the fall, they can get them in spring usually. Especially the ones who use Hilgers as a supplier.
