bow slayer Posted June 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 wow small world Restoule is where I am headed,I usually go get them in Nipissing at Bowmans bait but it is kind of out of the way was hoping to get them on 11 somewhere.

Mister G Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 1/8oz all black jig and about 1" pinch of a nightcrawler will do the same as a leach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bow slayer Posted June 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 leeches are more durable and easier to store then worms,just keep them cool and change the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunkerhunter Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 I drove up to timmins 2 weeks ago and stopped by most of the bait shops along the way for leeches. most expensive was billy bobs in north bay @ $ 60 per pound cheapeast was gramps place in temagami @ $ 45 per pound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC1 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 You need a bait license to hold more than a small amount - which was why my family hasn't bought a pound of leeches in a while. http://www.ontario.ca/document/2015-ontario-fishing-regulations-summary (Page 10) But I'm sure if you can find it - good for you, because leeches by the dozen are way too expensive.

aplumma Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 The only time I almost bought leeches the joker put the leeches in a 16 oz measuring cup with water and tried to sell them to me as a LB of leeches. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freshtrax Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) Not much help on the bulk leaches, but by far the best smallie bait after a live crayfish..., but gone are those days. Edited June 10, 2015 by Freshtrax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bow slayer Posted June 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 well Bowman's in Nipissing just quoted me 40/pound or 25 for half a pound. Looks like I will grab them there,half pound works out to about 8-9 dozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
