(mousie) fish bait
« on: Dec 13, 2010, 08:20 AM »
Anyone know who sells mousie bait locally in Omaha,  I hear some people prefer them over wax worms for ice fishing.  Has anyone used live mousie bait before, if so would like to know.

Whats local? In Lincoln Wolf Tackle.
Teach a kid to fish and hunt and they will be resourceful, smart and confident. Today's world is much different than the one I knew as a child. They need these skills even more than I did.

Bet you're in Omaha.  HA!

Yeah, I fished with Mousies last season.  I'll be honest, I wasn't impressed.  They were soft and didn't stay on the hook well.  On the ponds and lakes that I fished, Waxies and Spikes worked better for me.  Not to mention, they have a smell about them.  Hard to explain.  Sort of like rotten wet dirt...  I didn't order an Mousies this year when I ordered bait.

Sorry, no local source in Omaha to recommend.
