    My brother in-law Tim called Fish Lake Bait in Harris Mn. today. They have large and medium leeches BUT due to the cool spring they don’t have any extra large or jumbo’s?

    Bob,

    Talked with the owner (Jim Hansen) of Hansen’s Little Bear Bait & Tackle in White Bear Lake, and he has 100lbs of Jumbos on order. I’ve already claimed 10lbs for myself. You may want to give Jim a call and reserve your quantity ahead of time as they’re going fast.

    (651) 653-1326

    They are located on the corner of 96 & 61 in White Bear Lake.

    Good Luck,

    Rodney

    Well, the Leeches are there but very few Jumbos, mostly Mediums and Larges. Still looked better than the other Bait Shops I’ve checked out. Out of the 100lbs that came in there’s probably 60lbs left….40lbs gone in 2 days. One guy called last night while I was there and wanted to buy 15lbs! Jim will only sell max quantity of 1lb per person. I expect they will be gone by next Wednesday with opener tomorrow.

    Everyone’s having the same problem, because of the cold spring the trappers aren’t catching the Jumbos. Could be real difficult finding Leeches for a few weeks.

    Good Luck finding Jumbos???
