Where is the best and cheapest place to get feeders shipped. I need at least 100 - 200 a week. :thumbsup:

You are from Georgia? Try a local bait shop for shiners, cutlip minnows. or fathead chub, if you are near the coast try live smelt or anchovies, they should cost about the same as large feeders but you will save on shipping charges. They will also usually be healthier for your fish though I would use a salt dip or salted holding tank with them before feeding them to your fish. The salt water bait fish are better if you can get them as few possible parasites will make the transfer from salt water to fresh.

goldfish are a lousy food source for any fish, but if you insist...

Nah... I tried to get ahold of him, and he wouldnt even respond to my email, dont waste your time.

I would try and go to your local fish store, and see if they will setup a bulk plan, just charge you like 1 or 2 cents more than what they pay, and then buy like 1000 of them or so at a time...

Bait fish are still legal in Indiana as long as they are a native species, call the local bait shops.
