Last weekend west twin had 9 inches in the spots we fished. Lots of snow on the ice. You can get minnows at the local Ace hardware in town, or if you are coming in from Gaylord there is a lady that sells really good minnows and a large variety right by the curve at McCoy road. The hardware has blues and perch minnows, the other bait shop has about 6 varieties of minnows.
