About the Live Minnow
Nothing out-fishes live bait when fish are finicky. A live minnow on a hook, split shot, and bobber will catch nearly every freshwater species. The natural movement, scent, and look is unmatched. Essential knowledge for all anglers — especially for crappie, walleye, perch, and trout.
