Anybody know if there any there any bait shops (minnows) in the Troy Shelby twp area? Thanks

Not to my knowledge. Out by LSC or Cass lake area(Pontiac, Waterford area) would probably the nearest.

Ok, thanks I will check the link out. I know there is a shop in Oxford but its a bit far for fishing some of the lakes near me. Guess I will have to get a minnow tank at home or go to lakeside! Thanks

If you are thinking of the one next to the Chocolate place I don't think it's there anymore. There is one in downtown (old part) of Lake Orion called Hook Line and Sinker.

Yep, thats the one. He had two small minnow tanks in there and not much of any thing else as far as I was concerned. Some fly tying stuff and hooks. Thanks for telling me they arent there any longer!

Thanks

From 1967 to 1995 I fished Long Lake in Lake Orion and that was the shop my Grandfather went to. Pete, I think was the old guys name and that century old dog that was ALWAYS there. Lots of memories.

I don't know if this is the closest, but there is one called "Hook, Line, and Sinker" that is in downtown Lake Orion. I don't have the number with me right now but if you do a search on the web you might find it.
