Default Re: Bait Shop

That sucks that Behere closed. It was very convenient to Round Valley and other area waters. But it always seemed they were operating on a shoe string. Great place to buy bait, but limited selection of tackle. I guess there isn't enough profit in largely selling worms, shiners and herring.

But as for their competetiion in the area, their hours suck. I see now that their website calls it "winter hours" but those were the hours last summer if I recall correctly.

A lot of Round Valley and Spruce Run anglers are about to call it a day by the time they open mid week.

It's a tough business these days with BPS/Cabelas, Dicks and Amazon, but there should be a place for a full service tackle shop that is also open early enough to serve the the fishig public. Right now there are few options in the vicinity to buy bait if you want to go ice fishing early in the morning. Hoping the new place can fill that niche as well.
