Hi all. Newbie to the forum and of course in grand newbie fashion my first post has a general question. Last time I was boating around Apalachicola I failed at scoring some live shrimp. I know I could run to St George but thats like 12 miles or so by water. Is there any bait store closer to Apalachicola acessible by water with live shrimp? If not what about by car, or do I need to run to St George and quit being a wuss? Thanks and I'll post a trip report after this weekend if the wind allows me to fish.

Scott

P.S. Never fails when I plan a trip its gail force winds for the entire weekend. :beer:

GULP shrimp is your friend.
Just add hooks and water.

I went to Fishermans Choice on Monday and all they had was frozen shrimp. Maybe you will have better luck. We did catch a few red's in the channel behind Fishermans Choice.
