Re: live bait in hull
Given that you referenced "depanneur" I am assuming that you mean in Hull and not in Ontario. I can't say for certain but unless you're talking about worms it's probably unlikely given that live bait (minnows) is illegal in Quebec.

Yes Paul. He means Hull, Quebec. It think he is talking about a general store on Jacques Cartier or Fournier rd. I never went but that is the place (heard about it). As Paul states, it is now illegal to fish with live bait.

Re: live bait in hull
No live monnows there anymore.
Only frozen.
It is now illegal for anyone to sell live minnows in Quebec. Period.

Re: live bait in hull
You can still buy frozen minnows and use them in QC.
Just not live.

Re: live bait in hull
I'm actually fishing in Ottawa but would have went to hull to get live minnows. If worms still work I can just get some around here but I will go to canadian tire in hull for preserved minnows otherwise.

Hit up your local Asian market - the frozen section has a huge selection of little to medium and huge frozen fish.
I have no idea what it's real name is but I get Frozen Kehoe for $5 a dozen and they are like fat 10" torpedoes.. seriously fat with a pointy nose and clipped off tail.
Pike and Walleye love them, take em out of the freezer and let them sit in a well sealed bucket of salt water in the fridge for a week or so.
Stink to high hell and very oily - slash the sides and hang head down on a quick-strike rig and thump them off the bottom like they are feeding or dying.
Works really good.

Re: live bait in hull
I live in downtown ottawa, very close to the portage bridge. Not many options for us centretown folk as far as live bait is concerned, closest place I believe is manotick bait which is further than I'm willing to bus. I'm surprised you don't like the preserved minnows mission, I have had good luck with them in the past. I will say though be very VERY careful with the liquid that they come in: my cousin got some in his eye and had an infection for a week or so!!!

Re: live bait in hull
Depanneur Perry sells them in the winter... You need to turn right off Fournier after crossing Gatineau river bridge.
You can go catch minnows in brooks in Gatineau parc but you have to kill them before you use them.
I haven't had luck with frozen minnows or preserved minnows either...

This year I spent most of my money on beer, women and fishing...the rest I wasted.
