Where to buy sandshrimp near seattle/ bellevue

Post by gian » Thu Aug 27, 2009 7:18 pm

Curado showed me a spot in monroe for sand shrimp, but with the clousure of Joes in Issaquah, I have no where else to go. Do any of you know of a few places? I live in Issaquah, but work downtown and I am willing to go anywhere in between. I'm just trying to find a spot closer to home.
thanks guys

Outdoor Emporium right off the I-90/I-5. Literally a couple blocks south of the stadiums on 4th.

I'm pretty sure they have sand shrimmp

Lincs on Rainier Have shrimp mainly in winter.Auburn Sports is another one. The lil market in Fall City but not till after Dec 3rd or something like that when bait is allowed on the Snoqualmie.Does anyone know if the new sporting good store in Fall City is selling bait this year?Almost just as good are Ghost Shrimp which you can find on a sandy beach on the low outgoing tide.They are near the surface of the sand.Easy to get..

When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.

I went by outdoor emporium and got the last live ones they had. Funny some of the guys working there used to work at the joes by my house.

Try getting a hold of Ray's bait and ask them who they deliver to near your area. I know they deliver to some gas stations in the Duvall and Carnation area. There's always three rivers in Woodinville. Auburn sports and marine?

In monroe, The red barn/ Shell station, The old mini mart By the middle scool (old high school) on main street, and sky vally traders on hwy 2 all have shrimp. I think the gas station in fall city also has shrimp, but since the snoqualime is selective right now, they might not have until december?
