looking for shiners ...need help highway 400/69

[bow slayer]

heading up to nipissing on sunday afternoon and was hoping to pick up some shiners on the way up seeing that they are sold out everywhere on nip. I will be travelling up 400 all the way to french river area. Is there somewhere along the way to grab some,maybe going up 400 north of TO. I should be passing throu Barrie area around 5-6pm. Thanks for any help.

Only way I've been getting minnows lately is from the stomachs of whitefish

not sure if this place is open in the winter but Huronia Bait near Coldwater, is just off the 400 highway

Forgot about that lady in Fesserton.

Fish Ontario, just north of Bass Pro on the 400.

I'm not sure about winter, but in the summer time I hit the Bait Shop on Hwy 69 in Pointe Au Baril. Right across from the Shell Station & Liquor Store. Worth a shot if your going past.

Mike at Huronia Bait in Fesserton should have shiners, Give him a call though to make sure he will be there. He lives accross the road from the bait shop. The owner Betty has taken sick and not to often they will let her in the store. His # is 705-538-2573. They did have some nice shiners for pics.
