    Is there anywhere within 5 to 10 miles of red wing to catch creek chubs, shiners, and/or suckers for use as bait

    Most people wouldn’t take your first born to give you their spots. )

    I’m talking creek chubs here.

    Just go to any creek and fish around the bridges. You’ll find them. (not trout streams)

    With the new laws can you legally transport those if they are alive????

    Probably not. Personally I catch chubbs in the same watershed (connecting water) so I’m positive I am not causing any harm. It’s magic for nice fish.

    Must be caught from “non-infested water” and you cannot EVER transport lake or stream water.

    So you can bring tap/spring water and take bait from non-infested Waters. Those Waters are much harder to find.

    I don’t think you can catch bait from designated trout streams either.

    I got no spots for you, sorry.
