The Wind River Store....I believe? Its the log cabin lookn' store just east of the Wind River up on the hill there. It's the only place that I know of that has them!

They are all cured and ready to fish....and they do fish well

I know about the Wind River store. I don't want cured shrimp. I cure my own and won't use anything else. In the past my father in law has gone up to some place in Yakima and got me a few pounds, but has not this year. Just trying to find another source.

Thanks

The only place I have found them is up in the Yakima area. There is a couple of places up there. The easiest place to find is Grumpys on south 1st towards Union Gap. I went up there last weekend and stocked up.

There are several places up around Bellingham that you can buy boxes of them. If you hit it right, you can get them fresh off the boat. Great Columbia summer steelhead bait.

Can you give me the names of those places, I need to get some.

How many pounds do you want. The bait lady here makes frequent trips to Oregon and would probly deliver if the order was worth it. And yes they are good coons, and pinks.

There's a place in Stevenson, WA off of Hwy 14. It would be closer to your neighborhood.

Coon shrimp, We used to find a old bike rim and tye burlap to them bait it and toss it off the old Mcneil Island ferry terminal in the puget sound at night way back in the day. I remember cooking piling pearch with coon shrimp and squids we caught from the terminal on the dock during rainy winter nights. used to be quite a party back in the day.
