Hey Guys,

I was buying "Krill" from Surplus Herby's last year in little jars for $5 a jar. They just looked like shrimp with tail and head still attached. Does anyone know where to get the same or similar product? They don't seem to carry them this year and I'm looking for the light orange colored ones.

Thanks,

Ryan

Try the Pet Store down from Herb's, they sell it for Fish Food, thats where I always get it.

I usually just use shrimp that you put on salads and such, add a little pro cure scent, pautzkey nectar or smelly jelly...

Shrimp from a shrimp ring

We've been finding the Krill seems to work better Some Times more than shrimp, but, I bet each lakes different, if possible take a bit of both. Also, when you get the shrimp or Krill home, get some small baggies and divide it up into small packs, that way you don't have to thaw out the whole amount each time, works good!

How can you ask advice on baiting on this site ?????
Just joking of course ..... hope you catch a big one.

I aggree , when the fish are pickey,I downsize the bait usually to krill from the pet store and it works great.
