    Bob stopped in last nite and asked me to post this.He only sells willowcats to bait stores(wholesale)and if anyone wants them they can get them from us(Falling Rock Bar & Bait)or D & J Riversports. Sorry we do not ship but we do have a good supply on hand.If anyone wants large amounts give us a call before you show up.

    Thanks
