My sisters fella go 500 for $100 I can find out where if you want.
He got em round boort kerang area

There is a farm house at Lake Rowan (between Benalla and Yarrawonga) selling them, i'm not generally a bait man myself but bought some recently for the kids to target some Reddies, the ones at Lake Rowan although ok were a lot skinnier than the tub i got at the tackle store in Benalla.

How do you keep them alive? Everytime i buy some they rarely see the day out, i keep them in the shade (not in the esky) but i find they all wrap up into a tangled ball and eventually die. I take it they must be very fragile, is the fridge or esky the go??

Cheers, Tony.

in my experience yes mate, very fragile.

I use one of those insulated bait buckets with a breather top on it and keep it in the esky or somewhere cool out of the sun.

Definately keep them in the fridge. We dug a heap up for a trip away, kept them in a foam box in the fridge for a month before we went and they were as good as the day we dug them.

Yep definately keep them in a fridge or esky. They will die very quickly (1 hour) if the are left in the sun or warm conditions.

Cheers...Brett

Thanks guys for the feedback, I reckon I know what the problem is, esky or fridge it is from now on.
