My response was just to smile, but the more him and his friend acted like loud mouths the more I became angry. The owner had a chuckle with them, he usually catches the minnows himself. When I left the store the guy pulled out of the parking lot like a idiot, speeding off
I asked the owner on a few ocasions what type of minnows did he have/sell, he always says "creek chubs". He calls them either Bass minnows or Crappie minnows, when he's referring to the size. What he sells is a mix of things: Creek Chubs, Stonerollers, suckers, Goldfish, etc... I bought 12 madtoms from him before, without knowing what they were, tried keeping every one of them in a 10 gal
This time I lucked out, I got 3 stonerollers (replacements), 2 creek chubs (never kept before), and 1 rosyside dace (at least that's what I think it is). I usually go to the bait store to see what he has, I'll usually buy 1 or 2 fish at a time. My last stonerollers jumped out and died they were doing so good...
Anyway, has anyone ever had that happen to them? Also has anyone ever come across ill informed bait collectors/store owners? Tell me about some experiences
