Bay Tackle is closing shop

Went down to the Bay Area for some surf striped bass fishing and on my way home decided to hit Bay Tackle in Richmond. The store is now 3/4 empty and they have everything 40% off. All reels and rods are gone. I picked up a big spool of J-braid that should last me for years to come. It’s really sad seeing all these great  shops close one by one. Outdoor pro shop, Guns fishing & other stuff, and now Bay tackle. On other news, fishing was great!

There’s a new tackle shop in Novato called Fish Story you should go check it out. I remember when it opened and had barely anything now it’s stuffed with some really good stuff

No pics equals didn't happen.

Thanks for the heads up. I may have to check it out if I'm ever in the area. Fortunately, I live only a few minutes from Fisherman's Warehouse and Sportsman's W. But sometimes, these small tackle shops have what others do not.

+1 and ocean too

Thanks for the surf striper pic! The water looks good.
I really miss surf stripers.
Lure or sand crabs? I like white and chartreuse Hair-raisers.

I caught it with a lure (lucky craft). Nowadays, I’ve been enjoying catching them on a lure rather than soaking bait and wait type of fishing. When I saw the forecast I just had to go. I was going to go for perch on my other rod, but I figured could beat the Bay Area traffic if I left early.
