Kinda a silly question.

So, first full weekend I've had off since last September. I figure for sunday or monday I would love to fish Simcoe from sunrise to sunset, there is just one problem, I don't think there are any bait shops open at 6am and I worry that Emerald Shiners won't last 24 hours if I buy them they day before.

 

Those of you that are early birds, what do you usually do? Or is sleeping in the best option?

Keep 'em in the fridge. Just don't raid it in the middle of the night!

If you buy shiners the afternoon before they will be fine the next morning.

Do you have an aerator? If not, keep them in a bucket in the garage with some ice in the bucket. Make sure you dont use tap water for the bucket or the ice as it will kill them... Use distilled water

Just found out that fish Ontario on the 400 is open at 4am on sunday.

 

Thanks for all the help though if I end up getting to head out to Bellwood lake on monday.

There is always Innisfil tackle. They've been open both times I've been there on a Sunday. Once at 6 and once at 7...should be open, but you might want to give em a call if you can!
