Re: Buying dead shiners

So if I read that last part correctly, does that mean that bait sellers will now be able to sell salted minnows as well? Yes I believe bait sellers will be able to sell salted minnows, but customers are only allowed they 120 baitfish limit. Back in the day I believe the amount of salted minnows you...

Re: Buying dead shiners

Yes as of January 1st, 2024 you can transport perserved bait between BMZs, but note based on the law FROZEN does not count as preserved.... "Beginning January 1, 2024, changes to rules related to the possession, use and transport of bait (baitfish or leeches) include allowing: A person to trans...

I salt all my dead minnows, they work great.... based on your post just a couple things to keep in mind... 1. a person cannot legally sell minnows dead or alive unless they have a licence to sell bait. 2. dead, salted and live baitfish... whether caught yourself or purchased all count as part of the...

Re: bay quinte. walleye

I fish the Bay of Quinte regularly, the ice does not get that thick, due to current, So not a lot of wooden ice huts on the bay and few if any overnight huts. Your best bet is to hire a guide who moves around and uses portable huts and rent a motel to sleep in. One of the best is Joe from Blue Rock ...

I made this post "sticky" similar to the Shirley's Bay ice fishing thread, so we can share info easier.
