Thanks, as a casual fisherman in MN I've always wondered how the minnow harvesting business works. Good on you for (as far as I can tell) being as transparent about your process as possible. My understanding of zebra mussels is that they're fairly hard to spot when they're small, hence why we're in effect quarantining those waterways. As hard as we all try, they get through if we're harvesting bait in one water to use in another...
Great job explaining the process. I hope this will be well received and the harvesting of Spottails for the fisherman consumer can be re-established. I wish you the best with the endeavor! Happy fishing and tight lines!

nice video .. thanks for the info
kinda a bummer that every waterbody has to be uofM state certified for VHS every other year now.
over regulation although needed, is slowly ending this way of life. good work on the video.
MNtwincitieswaters there's a reason for it
Do you understand why zebra mussels are bad in the first place? Invasive species are a big deal in ecology.
