Bait Barn

[Gettin Jiggy]

Good luck to you. I will definitely be by to support.

Although I am not the one to make that decision I would definately put a decal on my boat and truck if one should become available. Yes I like the idea.

I agree, supporting and advertising a walleye.com decal would go on my truck!

Thanks Fishon205, all your great ideas always giving me more projects! I am sure walleye Rick is keeping up with this thread. I think the idea is great just need a chairman to put it in motion... cough cough Fishon205. As for the fall I would like to see some of your custom duck calls on the walls of the store! since we are helping one another out with work and all. Their ya go buddy!

CAPTBRIAN to answer your question and yes I know this was an issue in the past I have spoken to a few other captains in the area this place was never open early enough or consistently enough for the captains. The Mrs. said 4 am for jig season and 5 after the jig bite cools off. I believe this should be sufficient enough, but if not it can always be adjusted.

Those hours should be great. Cant wait to come in just look for the van to pull in the lot.

I don't come up much but would gladly stop in and help support you. Several of you on this site have helped me get on the jig bite in the spring. Where is your store located. Thanks

The shop is located 1 mile east of besse on the south side of route 2. Come in check us out I have been working my butt off in the place, hope yall like the new atmosphere.

In the spring, next time the wife and I drive by we'll stop in, over the past many many years I have never been in that place. Kind of back off the road, the previous owners NEVER had it obvious if they were actually open or not. I stopped once in the morning to check it out, like 7 am and they were not open. Been driving right by ever since. Over the years, the only way I knew if they were open was if there were any vehicles parked out front, by then I was past the driveway. Also you might think about letting folks meet up ( boaters to nonboaters) and leave their vehicles at your place. Causes them to stop in 2 times = more sales. Pick up the hot baits, get more of the hot baits after being out fishing. Let folks know way before they reach your driveway that you are open or not, and that you carry all required fishing needs for Erie from perch to walleye and customs too!
Are you going to do online sales also?
Just my 2 cents.

Dreamcatcher, is the phone number going to be the same? If not could you post on here, need to put in my cell for those hard to find minnow days. Heading up to Turtle Creek this morning might stop by if we have time.
