Leaches

Ive been told this time of year its hard to get leaches just wonder who has them and if any of you guys are using em. I used to kill the walleye on houghton lake with them on jigs and harnesses. I loved them for their durability esp when the perch and gills are after it but you never hear of anyone using em around here

i not used them on lsc but the bait shop by crocker launch has them
I use leeches when I bobber fish, which is RARE. but leeches outperform worms and shiners, for me at least. I also used to use them on single hook harnesses in the SCR years ago.
I used to kill small mouth bass on them up north but haven't tried them down here.
Fake leaches work great for smallies. We use the 3 inch berkly product and it turns out pretty good. Never used live ones but i'm sure the results woudl be about the same.
Thanks guys. The crocker bait shop is right by my marina and the one i always go to so that works out perfect. I forgot to mention the success i had with them smallie fishing in rivers too, either on a jig or on a small ait hook with a small split shot drifted through deeper pools in the rivers. Guess the only way to see how they work on LSC is to pick some up and give em a shot on my harnesses.
Jimmys carries them, and there nice sized.Also see my previous report "smallmouthin". Bob

I've been curious as to using these for walleye around here--hear they're great bait. Please, let us know how they work out.
