Santos Frijoles! I never would have thought of Petco or Petsmart. What about crawlers this time of year? Any chance Petco or Petsmart carriest them too?
There is a bait shop in Middle River Md. They have fat heads and other minnows. it's called bowleys baits. Other then that maybe tochermans in the city of Baltimore might carry minnows, not sure.
There is a Bass pro in Arundell mills mall. They have waxies and worms, no minnows though. Try searching google for bait in your area. What part of upstate did you fish in? I'm from the Syracuse area, there is some good fishing up there.
It's in Baltimore
