The Tackle box in Salinas

Sorry to inform that the owner of our local tackle shop has passed.Tony was A great guy to B.S with. He had many stories and tons of knowledge in our sport fishing industry.He will be missed.....Andy

DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me and LaMosca were just talking about the striper tourneys they put on each year (one from the beaches and one at San Luis). I was going to ask you to talk to Tony about kayaks entering the San Luis derby.
Man, that is crappy news. Now I wish I had spent more time in his shop because it seemed like he had a wealth of local info. Bummer.

........ Hopefully his son  Roger will take over the Bis.. Currently hes looking over Hollister Bait and Tackle..

This is a great loss for Salinas.  Tony was always there when I visited the Tackle Box, even knew who I was, not by name, but we would start talking about who's been catching what, and how, and other stuff as well.  He will be surely missed.

I just went by there a few days ago, and wondered why they were closed on a weekday!  My thoughts to the family and friends.
