You are correct it was Howard Wood. Been to all those places except Genesco Bait and Tackle. My Dad grew up in Clermont.

There was also Dandy Trail Bait & Tackle which was a tiny shop that controlled access to the Dandy Trail pay lake which is now The Islands houses and apartments.

Also, Genesco Bait & Tackle on 16th St. just past the Speedway and owned by Gene Robinson, As well as Sutphin's in Speedway closer to Georgetown and 16th St. where a young Dan Basore used to hang out.
