Chris' Live Bait

Chris' Live Bait Chris' Live Bait is located just east of Marmora on Highway 7 at the corner of Marmora Mine Road.

Chris' Live Bait was established in 1985 and has been family owned and operated since. Chris first started the business to earn a little pocket money selling worms and minnows to fisherman who passed by his family's farm north of Stirling. In 1995, Chris and Sandra moved to Marmora with their 3 children and operated the business as a home occupation on Marble point Road. In 2002, the business was

moved to the corner of Highway 7 & Marble Point Rd to a more visible location. Later in 2005, a new store was built located on
Highway 7 and corner of Marmora Mine Road to meet the increasing demand for live bait and tackle within the area. In the last few years the business has expanded to carry hunting supplies, crossbows, ammunition and hunting clothing.

A great day for the Crowe Lake Pike Catch n' Keep Pike Derby!

A total of 17 pike were weighed in at the store with the heaviest pike at 6.63 pounds harvested by Kinsley D., 2nd heaviest was caught by Adam H. 4.45 pounds and the 3rd Heaviest 3.83 pounds by Kristen K. The hidden weight prizes were awarded to Robbie F. and Parker D. for their harvests. All fish were taken home by anglers to be enjoyed!

We are so thankful for the help of our staff, our Pro Staff Mike Trunks who weighed all the pike and talked fishing with all that stopped in to the store today. Our sponsors, Rapala Canada and Pure Fishing Canada. It was great to have Paul from Rapala visit many anglers on the ice today and talk fishing back at the store.

The draw prizes awarded were from our sponsors, any of the winners not present at the final weigh in will be notified by phone if they won a draw prize.
