Default Places to get live shiners/minnows in North Jersey?
Hi all,

I am having a heck of a time trying to find a place to get live baitfish somewhere closer to Montclair, NJ than an hour's drive away. Anybody know of any bait shops that have live baitfish closer to Montclair/Clifton than a two-hour round trip away?

Many thanks in advance!

I live in the same area and use both places mentioned above. Totowa opens earlier than Meltzers.

fins n furs on 23 is a great shop. I've seen herring there before. If you ask him he'll get you whatever you need.
