Anyone know a place that sells live perch near Sweeny. Looking for a couple dozen for bait.

Keep your receipt. Don't know how much it's being enforced but it's now illegal to take live perch to use for bait without an itemized receipt for them. Goes for minnows too.

So you're saying that it's against the law for someone to catch their own bait, and they have to prove that they bought it? WTH

Not only that, if you have any bait left after your trip it's illegal to leave with it. You have to dump them out. Can't leave with any water in any container in your boat including a live well.
