I use the Longer Life Bait Cooler. Not only does it keep minnows alive for days it folds up and fits in my boats storage locker.

If minnows is the ticket more power to you. Jigs is alot less work, but you must work the jigs. The irony though is that we have seen jokes are made to ones who uses minnows. I would never make fun of minnows fishermen. After all, minnows are widely used and encouraged/acceptable for most tournaments.
well said sir, but i wasnt trying to make fun of the guy, if minnows are his thing, more power to him. I was just giving my opinion.

What you said is 100% true, and you didn't make fun of anyone using minnows when I read it. I meant to say as in general and in some past threads... We are all good...

Iv always been a jig only man myself, until this year. Over the past month or so I have started giving minnows a try. I have to admit this past Saturday they made a big difference for us. Sometimes you just have to change things up a bit to get the fish to bite.

pinch the head off with your thumbnail, worm it on and see what might happen.

If u freeze 2 liter soda bottles with water they last long time in an ice chest with UR minnow bucket in there and Put frozen bottles around minnow bucket. Or use 20 oz. bottles frozen. and let one float in ur minnow bucket. U must keep them out of the sun. Using regular ice from a bag in UR minnow bucket can cause minnows to die. I use this method with the bottles at the coast also to keep shrimp alive and it works great.
