    Where does a guy buy minnow heads? I have called every bait store in town and no one carries just minnow heads. I hear all this talk of using them for jigging on Slender spoons on this IDO Tv show.

    find a place that sells minnow tails, they usually will carry heads as well.

    Buy a scoop of minnows, put one hook through the head, pinch off behind the gills. And I definitely recommend pinching it off over cutting with a knife. I’ve never seen anyone selling just minnow heads.

    They won’t tell you over the phone. You have to go into the bait shop and ask quietly about the minnow heads. Most stores have a secret room in the back that they use to store the minnow heads in. They’re usually about half the price of whole minnows. Good luck.

    Hey Josh, I was at a bait shop last weekend that had a room where they were growing genetically modified minnows that grew without bodies, so I know what you’re talking about

    Doesn’t everyone else just place an order on-line before the start of the season? That’s usually when I find the best deals, and free shipping.

    You guys act like this isn’t real. When you buy 4 dozen or more in the back room if you ask they give you there special BBQ SAUCE recipe for fish ribs. Not valid on online orders.

    After watching all the IDO episodes, I think Holst has hoarded them all and shoved them in his jacket pockets and told all the bait shops around to not let the secret out!
