You definitely can!
I just got off crutches a week ago so I'm out of the contest.

Are the certified for use in any water? If he really wanted to give this a shot why would he not move forward..at least give it a try on his own then once its proved to work, then maybe ask for cash???

He got stuck with a bunch of suckers he raised for a pike club. It took me three years to buy them all. Will knows the story. He wont just raise them . He wants cash up front. Mike

No luck. They pretty much only get them during the winter for spearing decoys.

We've already talked and I thought this was a done deal for this spring. This may be a long term investment because I'm not sure if he can get them over 12" by October.

Hey Guys, If I catch some suckers out of the titabawassee can I use them on Sanford? Same body of water so VHS isn't a concern right?
