I don't see any activity at Bantam Bait n Tackle these days.

Saw some guys on South Bay. Store was not open again. Doesn't look promising.

Every time I've driven by Dean's since his passing several months ago, it has been closed.

The Bantam B&T is a sorry story... closed today (Sunday 12/30) at 8:45am. There was the South Bay, full of ice-fisherman, so it seems the owner here is more interested in sleeping in than making money. Best to call ahead, I learned this the hard way.

I'll update this post later today or tomorrow.

Thanks for the info guys!!!!

This is what I know about Bantam Bait and it's not much.
There's Fed-Ex delivery stickers on the front door (they're a notice trying to deliver) with the date 12/24 and 12/26 on them.

I've driven by there alot between Dec 22nd - Jan 1st, not ever a car or truck parked there but someone shovels the little walkway to the front door.

There's a feed store etc in the same "shopping area" and maybe I'll stop by this weekend and ask if they know what's going on?

Blockhead over and out.
