Thread: Sniff, sniff, can ya smell'em

About to be fun times

What do you mean order some crickets? they sell them in alot of convience stores hear in NC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL, yes, I am sure they do, but NOT in Okla. particularly. A couple of lakes in Oklahoma that have some bream fishermen around them might carry them. Normally, you have to order them and keep them or use worms. I raise red wigglers and I think I am going to order a 1,000 in so I can take some time an drown some bugs. I have kept them for years, but my business took control of my life for a few years and now it is time to get back into perch jerkin.

George,

I'm gonna fish Pawhuska Saturday. Will let you know what I find. BTW - I do need some contact names for the tackle we talked about. Will try to call you 1st of next week. Hopefully won't make you miss a bite!

George when you say crickets, are you talking about the brown ones like the pet stores carry or the big black ones that we see around the house once in a while?

I am talking about the brown crickets that you may find in the pet shops. The pet shops charge a fortune for their crickets although they are making a living, I am just wanting to kick back, smell the air and rip some lips. Google cricket farms on the internet and build a box to house a 1,000 or 2, purchase wild game bird laying mash, get a chicken watering fount and some gravel to fill the trough. You be in the cricket biness. I think a 1,000 runs around $25.00/1000 postage paid. I could be low since I have not bought any in a few years.

Perchjerker - I do not recall what tackle you are talking about, but then I have slept since we talked. Give me a call and I will be glad to help. I have been catching a few nice gill for pond stocking lately.
