Shopped around at four places in Edmonton and found no Parker Minnows.
The other brands were just not up to par and so are smelts.
Anyone find any ?

Just came from north side cabellas. They had jumbo shiners that were marked parker but had a different label than i am used to.

Was just at north side WS, they have lots, looked like a fresh shippment too. Also have Candle Lake Shiners.

I like to use the Candle Lake shiners, very similar to the Parker.

Did you check west end Fishin Hole?

We just got a load of jumbo and regular size parkers in on Thursday. They sell quick though so maybe already gone although that seems unlikely.

I am sure they are trying hard to deplete the warehouse as it is not that long away until this years catch comes in. Anything you buy now is almost a year old and new stock is only caught in a short spring window for the whole year.
