Pastikas up for sale...

[andracke]

The sawyer county record says that pastikas is for sale. I noticed there website is down also. Anyone hear anything?

I had noticed the issue with their website the last week or two. This would be sad news. It was always the first stop for me when I got up there for a week. They always had a great selection of baits.

I didn't know it was for sale. I knew they closed it. Hate to see that. Al tried hard to make it go.

I was just doing some internet searching and saw that Pastikas started in 1921. Wow. I didn't know it went that far back. This economy is really killing the little guys.

So does that mean that the only places left are Jenks and Hayward Bait & Tackle?

Makins,
there is also D & B tackle, just a bit east of Jenk's on B. The owner, Betty I think, is very nice and they have a decent supply of baits, especially Sennett Tackle.

Funny you say that, I just dropped off a bunch of baits to Betty.

Stone Lake Bait and Tackle. Not much of a bait selection but he is really good about getting and holding suckers if you call a week or so in advance.

That is sad to see. Going to be really weird when I come up next week and see nothing there. Really weird indeed.
