    Just saw the sign this morning.

    Matt’s Lucky Bait

    It’s on the West side of County Road 18 (St Croix Trail) in between the first two round-a-bouts closest to I-94.

    I plan on stopping in around 4 to see what they have.

    Certainly a welcome addition to the St Croix River Valley!

    That’s shocking we never caught wind of this. Goes to show you not everyone uses the internet the same. It’s out of my way but I will make a point of stopping in.

    What’s more shocking is that my FW called me this morning to tell me this. She said it’s been there for a couple weeks!

    I would have seen it tonight when I had my haircut, it’s right next door to the Razor’s Edge Barbers.

    Heading South, a person should look for the barber pole otherwise you’ll pass it before seeing it.

    BK, Is that the same location as Neal Smiths old Barber shop? RIP Neal!

    No, it’s closer to I-94.

    …and I do miss my 6 am hair cuts.

    RIP Neil, even if you were a golfer.

    Can’t believe I missed this.

    Save your time, I just stopped by and there is a lot of work to be done. Front counter and bait tank is all there is for now.

    Lots of potential here. Clean with carpeting almost department store like.

    Did not talk to anyone as he was in the back working on something, didn’t know if it was the cable guy or the owner didn’t want to bother him.

    RIP Neal !!! Goes to show how great a guy he was/is still talking and thinking of him almost 2 years later.

    If you know where BorderLine bar was well its north west kidycorner across 18 from there.
    The Round abouts wont be an issue but parking with trailers maybe.

    That was the cable guy R Weed. Matt said the cable guy saw 5 people stop in today while he was out getting supplies.

    Matt’s a great guy that’s going to change the shape of bait shops in the area I believe. Well Matt and his lab Lucky.

    He’s going to open on his birthday April 1st, then have his grand opening on the following weekend. He’s planning on a bbq for all that stop in.

    In the mean time, he’s invited anyone and everyone to stop in and say hi.

    PS Jesse, I warned him about you…

    Excited to meet him and give him the support to get things rocking.
    May just volunteer my services to help him out on my down time, this time of year to much of down time.

    I want this to work for him.
