I have always seined my own minnows. Bait caught fresh at the location you're fishing will out fish store bought 5 to 1. Check any of the local creeks and rivers in your area. Look for slack water just along the edge of the swift current and drag your net through it. If you hit the right spot you can get 10 or 20 dozen in one drag.

I usually let the cute girl at the sportsman in Sanger catch them for me. She's nice, and I don't think she ever counts them, because we always get more than we paid for.
