The monkey and salt water shops

I was down by the harbor this morning and made my way into a tackle store that was 90% salt water based. I wasn't looking for anything, but had some time to kill. Since these shops do not focus on freshwater, they are far more likely to put their freshwater stuff on clearance if it does not move quickly. While they do not have the best selection, they are sometimes worth a look.
I picked up a reaction strike LMB bass swim bait for $20. (On the reaction stirke website, this bait is $35) and a couple of packs of terminator tubes at $1 a pack.
If you have salt water stores in your area, I would not suggest going there to find a specific item, but if you have the time and a few extra bucks, it might be a good idea.

Do not knock it, as those swimming mullet in the jar that looks all weird can be killer on LGMouth.

It is almost like not using lures they work so well.
