    Freshwater Tackle Shops in Miami?

    Does anyone know of a tackle shop(s) in Miami that has a good supply of freshwater stuff? Most places in Dade County seem to be salt water based and Bass Pro Shops is a hike.

    Also, does anyone know of a company that makes a bait like the old Fin S Fish 7" Golden Shiner?

    Thanks.

    dr fishfinder..I dont believe you will find one in Miami...The fishing line on miller has some freshwater stuff, but not much of a selection..your safe bet is making the hike to bps, or just ordering online..I would also contact lunker city to find out about the fin s....203-237-3474 they have the 7" available

    Thanks Rob. Iggie's is the only one that's remotely close to home. I'll give them a shot.

    Our club meetings are at BPS every other month, so I make the hike that often.
    Thanks for the Lunker City phone #. They do have the 7", just not in the Gold Shiner color any more. Shame, that landed some big fish. I tried the 7" Bass Assassin, but it work as well.

    Thanks!

    Uh, that would be my "ex wife". And the best present she could give me woud be to stay that way. Preferrably in another state.

    Anyoo, it would be nice to have a BPS here in My Yami.
