Well I am back in TBay on the 6th and need a rod so this is awesome! I moved back to Niagara just in time to get a job back up here lol.

Hey, to each their own and Id never knock someone for trapping their own bait but I feel Thunderbay bait prices are very fair, especially for leeches. We are by far the cheapest per lb than any neighbouring areas. I know what it costs for all the equipment, fuel, meat to bait leeches, Bread, traps, quads, canoes, trucks, insurance, licence's to sell/trap bait, fees for all the bait blocks, wages, water, electricity, bags, motors, quads, repairs to vehicles and quads etc., and the list goes on and on and on. Annnnd I know the hard work that goes into it! Its not only about fuel...I never understood why ppl on this site always relate bait prices to fuel only. I think Its one of those grass always looks greener things but until you get out there and trap commercially and see what really goes into it then most people dont really know the costs and hard work that is involved. Anyone can go set a minnow trap on the side of the road and get a couple dozen minnows(probly spend more in fuel going there and back than just buying most times), but when you need the amounts we need as bait shops its a totally different ball game. We work very hard trying to get bait for our customers and I can say for myself that I very rarely, cant get something when someone asks..especially when they give me enough notice! Anyways, just hoping people see the other side of things too because I do realize bait prices seem high, because they are compared to 10-15 years ago but its def not because we are getting rich! And as mentioned above I feel the shop in the Sault was outragious with there pricing(hence why I made the post). Were not here to rip anyone off but everyones gotta make a living! Hope to see you for may long and if anyone has any orders please phone ahead and ill mark the order on our calendar to make sure we have what your looking for and ready for when you want to pick it up. As always it will be packed in a box with some ice for the ride!! Josh 683-3778
