Where are the fiddlers
Does anyone know of a bait shop that actually has fiddler crabs available?

I called around a few weeks ago and no one in the area had any. I'm guessing it will be mid March before they stock them again. I wanted to get some and freeze them for a few winter sheepshead trips.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
