I need to get some to cut up for catfish bait. Any tips where I could find them near Hamilton? PM is preferred.

Have you ever tried shrimp? Buy a ring on sale and enough bait for weekends worth of catfishing!

Take a ride out here, the tribs off the Grand are full of them this time of the year. There were all sorts of kids with rods in tow last week on March break. I presume they were sucker fishing.
