Default Question: Blue label

I'd like to find some Blue Label Herring for the up coming Salmon season, I'd like to buy at least a 1/2 case . .

I'd be open to any ideas!

Me too! I would split a case with you, or buy a whole one if necessary. I have someone that I bought from last year, just haven't gotten around to calling to see if he has blue label (I bought green last year). Anyone else got a good source?

Hog One send me an email and I will get back to you with an email telling you where and how many he has once I get up there, get mine and see what he has. Not everyone has blues this time of year. Some don't have greens, others do. So you have to hunt for them.

Anyone interested in herring just do a private email to me. We have a fresh batch of herring in from Puget Sound.

Marie [img]graemlins/hearton.gif[/img]

PS Be VERY careful what you buy out-there for a so called good deal...

now if you want some cheep stuff, I know where you can buy it real cheep. It should last about 2.9 seconds...on your hook, is this what you're looking for?
You should have told me...

:grin:
I like to sell only Premium Quality Herring!

You might call GI Joes to see what they have left. They have all tray herring for $3.88 this week. Unless there is more in the back, I bought all of Delta Park's vac packed blue label this afternoon, but it would be worth a few phone calls. (Sorry Marie, I will call you if I need more).

Hey beefcake what brand did you buy? I know GIJOES had some real garbage in the freezer for a while. I think it was called "fish on", it was vac packed on a blue tray. That stuff is about the worst bait I've ever seen. I bought a tray of those and their bellies ripped in about 2.9 seconds even after being brined. If it is I would take it back and save your money for different bait...........Chris

Fishnxtc- Thanks for the "heads-up". That is exactly what it is. I may try one pack this weekend, then return the other 14 if it stinks!

I will only sell Premium Qualiity Starved Herring.

Be careful what you think is a good deal out there.

Your Vacation time is important enough to buy quality baits, or your vacation will be ruined.

I've been in the bait business since 1989 and have see it all.

I trust my herring supplier, Puget Sound Herring CO.

Why go any where else?

Support Tillamook Bait CO. an ifish sponser.


Thank You,

Marie makes a good point don't go cheap on your bait. I would rather use a $12 rod and reel and have the best bait out there than a $400 rod and reel with the cheapest bait I could find. I know for fact that Marie has some great herring and if you give her a little sweet talk she just might make ya a deal :blush: ...chris
