    they normally have them, but they're crapy, they come in one of those buzz bee bait bags, not boxes, if i were you i'd just go to J&M and get a box, those are the good kind
    I figure it this way, if everyone in the world had a lie clock, whose hands moved once every time they lied. You could use any politicians lie clock as a ceiling fan.

    Late last summer they had joe patties cigs for a little whole, but they're not a reliable shop when it comes to bait, stop by jm
    Give a googan a king, and he can eat for a day. But teach a googan how to kingfish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years

    Only bait they had today was frozen shrimp. No live bait or cigs. +1 on swinging by J&M.

    Why do they have so much trouble keeping bait there? You would figure with the main objective of it being a "fishing" pier that they would be better prepared. Just does not make sense whatsoever.

    I made the trip to Joe Patties last year to buy cigs and when I got there, they had the same stuff everybody else did...captain morgans or something like that. Is there anything besides word of mouth to help find out when they have the local stuff that's so good....the white box kind? I know J&M has some, but I still have a few boxes left over from last Fall right now.
