That's part of it. Several recent years of drought have definitely played a role.
There's other factors too. MN does not allow importation of live bait from other states either. That really affects the amount of golden shiners available, most of which are not trapped here. In other words, demand exceeds supply.
Lots of bait trappers and dealers have simply hung it up in recent years. Its hard work for not much money. The two nearest me are both done as of last October. They both told me its just not worth it anymore. One of them had been there for 45 years.
My advice would be to learn how to effectively fish with artificial lures more often. I've slowly weened myself off the use of live bait nowadays.
Looks like you could use a FM hat. 😉
The future son in law prefers the lump coal. He’ll start it in coal starter over a propane burner, then dump in it his smoker grill as needed.
Congrats on the clean break “over there”.
Should really start a What yeah Smoking thread!
Another fun place we tried when up in Duluth.
OMC stands for "Oink, Moo, Cluck"
They serve pork cracklins for starter to test their sauces on.
