| Smokey's on Pewaukee Lake when I'm down there. Lots of fun sitting upstairs when John is holding court. R&H when I'm headed to Northern WI and beyond. Always make it a point to stop and browse,. Usually run into a MF'er or two when I'm there. |

USA - Smokey's at the boat launch because he has some hard to find basement baits, and its a pleasure going there - food & drinks right across the street. He'll even let you test drive a bait off the dock.

I'm a bait shop geek, I search for the unusual that no one else is throwing. I love saltwater bait shops and foreign bait shops - I've got stuff that will make you think - WTF? You should see "The Funky Chicken"!
Have fun!

| RnH because Rollie helped me begin to lear to catch muskies, that was my first muskie board, even before M1. I still have a print out of his extended tips on how to fish a Suick. At one point I offered to divorce my wife and marry his daughter but for some reason that didn't work for Rollie, Helen and/or the daughter. Go figure. I call RnH first for anything I need.
Thorn Bros second because I once dropped a thick wad of roadtrip cash, about $800, on the floor one late afternoon. Another customer found it, turned it in and staff gave it all back to me the next morning. How could I not be loyal to that? |

Location: New Berlin,Wisconsin,53151 | Smokey's Musky Shop on Pewaukee lake. John has assorted baits with some great deals. John offers sales all year long that can fill the tackle box with world class lures. I haven't been to the Green Bay store yet in fact I still think that Loie doesn't know that John has another store.
Support the Wednesday night league which registers at the Musky shop. Last week 24 guy's.

Location: Tomahawk,Wi | I think you guys that are saying the internet or ebay are really missing out or don't get it. I totally understand if you live where there are no bait shops that carry musky equipment. But if you live or travel near a "real" musky shop, you should :
a. Support them(big $ purchases I understand getting the best deal,but at least throw them a bone)
b Enjoy them- Rollies or Thorne Brothers is like musky porn to me!!!!!!! I love just checking out all of the cool lures and color combos. |

| Gander Mountain in North Little Rock, AR... No musky shops here, but I stop by between appointments and sometimes find something I can use on my trips north. They just started carrying Revo Toros. I was able to handle one and a Calcutta before buying either. Wish they had a pond to test them both out though... |

Location: WI | Crazy D's closed a couple years ago. Always fun to check out his lure collection while getting some custom bucktails twisted up. Thorne Bros and R&H are a toss up. R&H is 100 miles farther away but I always stop in when I'm in the area. |
