Agree here too. Reliability, selection, availability, and a happy face at the counter will go a long way. Last couple years that happy has sometimes been missing in the mornings at the Happy place down the road. Course, poor weather, hard to get minnows, and the algae two years ago make it a tough time for anyone, so sure that is part of it. Best thing that would help all the bait shops would be a hatch this year like 2003 and another summer without an algae bloom. Best of luck.
