Has anybody seen Parker minnows for sale anywhere in Edmonton. Probably a long shot hoping for these.

Not this year, unsure of why?!

Got some at the west end Fishin Hole on the 13th. They did have more but weren't sure when another shipment would arrive. I was going to buy a case. Wish I would have

Have you guys seen any lakes around with a good population of spot tail shiners in it? We used to catch our own and freeze them when we were kids. One scoop with a minnow net in Moose lake back then, and you’d have enough bait for a year.

Fishing hole southside had Parkers for 2 days earlier in June lol.

2 days and they sold out!!! Between my buddy and I we walked out with 12 tubs.

They are so much better than the candle lake ones, they don't turn to mush and are all a consistent size.

With the candle lake tubs, usually 3 or 4 of the minnows are jumbo's (sometimes they are small perch or walleyes, not spot tails lol!!) and then the rest are a mixed bag of small to tiny shiners that are so soft once thawed its hard to keep on your hook.

If someone had a contact for buying shiners in bulk that would be wicked. I would definitely combine forces with a couple guys and buy them bulk especially for ice fishing season.
