Baits and Bling - Merry Christmas 2024

Hope you had a swell Christmas and got what you wanted.  I did.  Some time with our adult kids, some hugs, high fives and "knucks" from the grands.  Material things, nah, I have enough of those.

Not that there is anything wrong with the giving or receiving of gifts.  It's another way to show you care.  Of course shopping is hard for some of us, so as a public service I offer this:


Baits and Bling, in beautiful downtown Chetek, Wisconsin.  As the sign says, "Everyone's happy!".  They are closed until Spring, but I can imagine fishermen coming in, buying minnows and night crawlers....realizing they are not being particularly attentive spouses, and buying "bling".  I think they are leaning heavily into ear rings fashioned out of lures.  Stuff like this:


The sign out front looks pretty swanky, upscale and new.  The one on the side has more of a "Bait Shop" vibe to it.  I bet it smells like minnows and night crawlers.  So do their customers, which is why the side line is probably working out pretty well for them.  Everyone's happy.
