where can i get pike bait WNY
« on: Jan 15, 2019, 03:58 PM »
Does anyone in the WNY area know where to get pike chubs are suckers or something comparable? I live in Lockport Wilson -ish area so anywhere near that but will drive to the falls or Buffalo if someone has bait.. Does the slippery sinker in Olcott stay open all winter and have pike bait? Maybe I will call. Any help would be appreciated

I went to capt bobs cause i was out that way. He had fatheads small emeralds and some other minnow.....suckers and goldens. My buddy went to wes and got bigger emeralds and said he was stocked. I usually go to wes and get giant emeralds and goldens but he dont always have suckers. Both have good bait usually.

Hey tdannhauser30, I always get my pike bait from Ron at A-1 bait. The trick is to order it the night before and pick it up in the AM. I have never had a problem getting bait which is not big enough, in fact, I have to generally specify that the suckers and or goldens NOT be bigger than 6 inches otherwise the bait continually trips the flag and I end up doing some tail trimming. I buy my bait by the pound which saves me some money. I know that Ron supplies the Creek Rd location with bait but I have had little or no luck finding them open for business. Your best bet is to call Ron on his cell phone as he will not (or doesn't know) how to reply to a text message. Was looking forward to another good year for pike locally but with the lack of water clarity in Wilson, I have my doubts. Good luck and perhaps we will meet up on the ice at some point.
