Does anyone know if there is anywhere to buy minnows around the Bolivar area. I like to fish out at Masters, but have not been able to find a good bait shop.

If you teach your kids to fish, your wife will let you go more often.....

Try Lakey's Bait and Fuel in Aldrich. It's just off the 215/123 intersection. Their number is 417 694 8012

Thanks for the info! Taking my oldest daughter fishing Friday, and want to throw out some minnows. Can't go wrong with live bait when fishing with young kids. I caught some nice crappie on Tuesday over in the Masters area using jigs, but think minnows would be easier for her to use.

If anyone is wondering, the fishing dock at Masters is hard to get to right now. The walk way is under about a foot of water. I drove down there to look at it yesterday.

Last year the liquor warehouse on 83 just north of the hospital sold minnows. I assume they are this year as well. Other than than that I don't know of anyone between here and Masters.

This place may be difficult to get to from where you are located since their location is on the south side of the Aldrich bridge. I think the bridge is still closed. The convenience store in Fair Play (south side of the road) used to sell minnows.

Thanks, the little store in Fair Play only sells worms now. I stopped in there the other day.

Sounds like everyone agrees that Don's is the place to go. I will check them out. Thanks for all of the great info guys!
