Reel Life closure?
 

With due respect of bait shop sponsors, I just read a post on another site about the Reel Life bait shop closing after 25 years of 24/7 open door.

True shame if that's the case. Solid shop that carried quality gear and on point advise you can't buy online.

Any other confirmation on this? They're my favorite shop on PP and this would complicate shark season for us. ....

Go to their facebook page for confirmation

I saw the FB page. Not sure why but yes they are :(

"not sure why" ? Own anything in the recreational fishing business and you would find out real quickly how difficult it is to stay afloat.

Another unfortunate casualty of our government mis managed fisheries :(

I just said the same thing to a buddy a few minutes ago. When Rich opened there was always someone in the store. Go get bait and go fish the canal and usually bring something home! I for one believe the online retailers have a hand in the demise of the local B&T stores as well.

Does anyone know for sure the reason they closed? I don't and the face book page did not say. i would prefer to not speculate. So if you truly know the reason please share. If not then just say I will miss them.
