    I'll be doing limited fishing this year - I stepped down from Vp/sec at Classic in 2017
    Health conditions have slowed me down a bit.........
    Will probably make only about 6 - 7 tournaments this year at most.

    can always e-mail me or phone accordingly
    I have a place in Riverview & Lake Kissimmee, Fl
    cell 813 - 215-9759

    Thanks be safe

    Really sorry to hear that - don't believe they had been in business more than 2 yrs - were still in the growing pains,
    competitive pricing and being able to stock a shop.
    Bait business is a tuff long hrs business.

    Thanks for up update Up2Specks

    Actually Harold it has been 3 years this month. F C took a big hit by the Hurricane in September. Been hearing slow going there, hope your doing well despite your slow down.

    Bait store operation is slow(tuff) business at times - Very weather controlled - as well seasonal influx various fishermen.
    Carrying multi amounts of inventory tailored to area. Long hours ....
    Watched my Grandparents run Bait/tackle operation in Toledo, Oh for many years - Learned a lot when i was a kid - they had to be flexible - Grandpa run a commercial fish delivery to various meat markets within 75 mi radius of Toledo -4 days a week.
    Pick up fish at commercial docks - Grandma would filet, package and Grandpa delivered according to what market ordered.
    Grandma - on side ran a filet service for everyday fishermen on side - they would leave coolers with caught fish at store during the night- she would filet and package per pound for them next day (perch - walleye - crappie - bluegill etc)
    Wish at times we had something like that down here - (after day of fish i'm whipped - then have to filet them)
    Salt or freshwater -
    Good luck John - I hope you will get back into Bait operation in near future
