Coming up for the weekend from London area. I believer Canadian Tire in Keswick used to have them? Any other places greatly appreciated! We usually went to Casey’s but that’s quite the haul to go there and back.

Canadian tire had some on Friday but they were getting low. There are a few places like Vaughan that have them . That may be on your way through ?
I’ll be coming up the 401, I don’t really know the bait shops in the GTA. Any recommendations I’m all ears! I will try calling CT and Harry’s on Monday.

Just noticed Harry’s doesn’t have minnows, and all nation is not open until 9AM on Friday. Any other options out there for minnows? Going to try Canadian Tire in the morning

My suggestion is skip the minnows all together.
Pain to replace them all day.
I haven’t used minnows for perch in decades. You honestly don’t need them.
Try getting one package of Impact Bait Mini shots. Use the Simcoe candy or goby colour they are deadly on perch. You can find them on face book. One of the owners lives in Keswick and would probably sell them to you the day you come in. Even when the perch bite is on fire I only go through two or three baits a day. Put them on a drop shot and smash all day and keep your hands clean and dry.

I messaged them on Facebook. I have a 2” paddle tail in shiner and a 3” in goby for drop shotting already I planned on using/trying.

One more because they were pigs. 🤪
Nice looking fish! They haven’t got back to me on Facebook yet, but im guessing we should be able to catch some fish regardless. Short notice when I’m coming up in the morning so I didn’t expect much
