Are hunts on the approved baitlist? And if so does anyone know who sells them?

I have heard that Bayside in St Albans has them and they are approved for Lake Champlain.

Also, as I understand it only bait shops that sell exclusively for Champlain can sell Hunts.

Shiner. Looks kind of like an emerald shiner but they tend to run a little bigger.

Good to know. Some finicky fish won't bite on the usual shad profile live bait, but hunts replicate the natural forage found in almost every body of water. They are a sure fire way to catch fish that are passing up large profile baits. They are basically a form of large perch bait or fathead.

Perch bait- a small minnow that can have big results in the ice fishing game.  :icefish:
