I believe that Transue's Bait in West Kittanning (near Auto Zone) sells them, best to call ahead as he seems to sell out quick!
On the internet, EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion!

Bass Boss Bait out of Akron OH delivers to most of the shops in the area. you can try calling them but they will likely tell you to go thru a local bait shop

Are you catching them on rod and reel? Have you tried a trap or seine?

Yea, they are going to be expensive, suckers are way more money than shiners or fatheads. I doubt any bait shop is going to give a real price break until you get into the 10-20 dozen range, or more. 4-5 dozen isn't really "buyinh in bulk". Good luck though.
Use blugeills!

What about creek chubs? Just about any small creek in the area has them. Get a $10 barrel style minnow trap. Fill with bread and leave over night, and likely filled in the morning.
