[font "Calibri"][size 3]Thanks for the info and advice. I always suspected myproblems had something to do with the fact that most of my minnows are smallcrappie minnows.[/size][/font]

[font "Calibri"][size 3]I'm thinking they're just not lively enough and live longenough to generate the reactionary strikes needed. I noticed you said you hadan aerated minnow bucket, I have one as well. I don't think catching my ownbait is going to be an option for me.[/size][/font]

[font "Calibri"][size 3]I know that there are several different products sold andseveral different methodologies to keeping minnows fresh. Such as, using dipnet to keep the bait fresh. What else do you guys recommend to keep the baitfresh and lively especially if you have to buy it the day before?[/size][/font]
