Trapping Minnows through the Ice

[SkunkedAgain]

Thanks Pat, so far I haven't found a minnow even with a baited trap... I think your last advice is the better plan... I just didn't find anything decent this fall when i tried my net... All I found was bluegill and crappie minnows, nothing I could keep and use... Don't know where the carp were this year... the fatheads were so small they went through the holes in my net, so they weren't big enough to use, so I missed out on my usual fall minnow stock up... I do still have some from last year, but I don't do as good of job preserving them as you guys do, so they are getting a little frost bit... Thanks for the info... Jeff
