    As of now, I'm working 6 days a week, so not really missing much more fishing as it is. Definitely fishing reports, and will probably be doing snacks and drinks. Live bait and artificial lures, rods reels and line. I have checked some of our local shops and the selection just isn't great. Really wish I could get some southern crappie rods in the shop as that is what I use, but not sure he fools with dealers much. He has an awesome product

    You might try Ed, he can't sell them much cheaper than he already does but even at that 10-15% on your price is a good price for a quality product in your area. Look at pricing mark up on poles in the bait shops in your area compared to Grizzly. Like BRM said, I'd get in touch with guys like Donnie, E-Z, Meatgetter, Arkie and some of the other guys on the board. Each one has a unique product that most of us all know works. Not hard to sell something you believe in.

    If you see something not selling, discount it and get it out of there. One of my pet peevs is going in a store with old inventory with dust on the product. Tells me it dosnt work in the local market or is way over priced.

    Not doing business with someone because the bait isn't healthy isn't fair to the bait shop unless it happens over and over. Most of the time the Minnows were in bad health when the bait shop got them delivered from the supplier, and they have NO control over what they get from them. Most suppliers will replace bad bait, but in warmer weather, a lot of times the bait is stressed when the shops get them, hence the white fuzzy looking spots on them.
