Good Morning LKA!
Our store is open this weekend. We are accessible by boat, but our parking lot is still in rough shape, as are our boat ramps.
We have a selection of "Black Salties" (minnows), suitable for Striper fishing, and the gas pumps are up and running.

We're still carrying minnows and plenty of other live bait. We're featuring the "Black Salties" as Striper bait. A hardy minnow that lives through damn near anything. So if you can't get out there and catch some native bait out of the lake, these are a good alternative.
