I stopped in at A&C on Sunday to get bait. Chuck mentioned that after we left he had to take minnows up to Linda because they were running low on bait. I know that she is trying to sell the shop but the asking price being over $700,000.00 is going to be a tough sell. I heard of one guy that looked into buying it and tried to get a loan but the bank wouldn't give it to him because the appraisal was no where near the asking price. I would imagine that she will keep it open until it sells. If you were to get a loan the payment would be around 4-5000.00 a month for a 30 year loan. You would have to sell a whole lot of minnows, waxworms and maggots to make that payment. I hope that the causeway is able to stay open. I really like that shop and and they are always very friendly. Always willing to help point you in the right direction to catch fish. I know that with the last 2 ice fishing seasons being a bust it has really hurt all of the bait shops in the area. If they were to close up shop they would be added to the ever growing list of bait shops that have shut down in the last several years. I also still have a 25.00 gift certificate that I need to redeem so they cant shut down yet.
