I was out on Saturday morning in front of the marina. I went there because I didn't have the 4x4, just the car. First time there this year, usually I go off of Garnet.
Anyways, I was using my trusty 'ol Northlands Bionic bucktail with a half a herring. Normally I get a couple with this set-up. I wasn't having any luck, so I put on my Bondy bait (all white one), I landed one, not very big, but it one anyways.
Anyways, there was a guy who was about 100 ft closer to shore than me. So I went over to see how he was doing, well to my surprise, he had been very successful. I kindly asked him what he was using and he said "The Cold Lake special" with a small shiner minnow.
So my question is: Where do they sell these? Probably not here in Cold Lake unless it is down at the place on hwy 55.
Does a person only need a "shiner" minnow and not a herring?
Seems kind of small...
Thoughts on this would be appreciated!
