Champ188 Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 Barnett's Pawn Shop in Garfield has 4 different size of bait... They have some 3-4 inch ( they call them striper minnows ) which I have caught striper up to 25 lbs.... most caught 6-10 lbs range..... thier 2.5-3 inch ( they call them bass minnows ) will catch stripers but, they really catch alot of smallmouth and kentucky's !!!!!...... (They get fresh bait on thursdays )... I also go down 37 and I usally stop there inless they are out of bait.. I call both Barnett's (877-997-5499) and Hook, Line & Sinker (479-831-8118) (in Rogers) to see what bait they have, before I leave home (Willard, Mo)..... I have been going to Lost Bridge area , every spring, for 12 years and I look forward to it more & more each spring.... If you have any other questions...Let me know..... Mike Sorry for the correction, but number to Hook, Line & Sinker is 479-631-8118.
zarraspook Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Sorry for the correction, but number to Hook, Line & Sinker is 479-631-8118. Between "fat fingers" and "senility"; I'm surprised that was my only mistake... Thanks for the catch !!!!!! "Look up OPTIMIST in the dictionary - there is a picture of a fishing boat being launched"
