Sandys bait and tackle tavares has new owner

SANDYS BAIT AND TACKLE HAS A NEW OWNER, JOHN FRANKLIN.A NICE YOUNG MAN WHO HAS BEEN MANAGING BUSINESS"S IN AND AROUND TAVARES FOR SEVERAL YEARS. He welcomes CRAPPIE.COM members and assured me the CC emblem will go back on the window after some housecleaning. He assured me he would continue to be a sponsor for our local slabfest as in the past and looks forward to meeting our local members. So please introduce yourself when you stop in to see his newly restocked store. Best wishes to Bill and Sandy and thank you for all your past support. Thank you to Fishin813 for pointing out the change as I had not yet begun fishing again to know of the change.

He is a good guy. Met him and spoke with him several times over the last few weeks. I think he is changing the name to Southern Tackle Works and will even be offering online sales.

CG1, any donations for the Grifffin slabfest? Maybe 1/4 lb of minners or something?
