Never was the type to try it in the stores as Alpha suggested.
The Pickwick Store in Counce....is, was....owned by Roger Gant....one of premier crappie guides in the nation. But the store has been for sale for a while and I don't know if he has sold it or not. The OutPost Ott is what you and I used to know as Adams Bait. It was open for 60 years under that name. It was bought after being closed for a couple of years and to tell you the truth I didn't think it would make it under the new owners. They have transformed that into a thriving restaurant and bait shop. Their bait shop does not carry a lot of tackle but they do have plenty of bait. They do have shiners as I called and asked. The hotel you are talking about is Little Andy's. Don't know if the bait shop is still opened there or not.

Regards
