When Tony C. opened Bass Run that was a great shop. let's face it a tackle shop in New England is a tough proposition unless, as CS said, you got money to burn. The earthy, crunchy, green thing leaves me feeling unclean. Ick!!!! Bring back Red MacFarlane to this earth and open it again down at the origianl site near the Harry's. Live bait, tackle and all hours of the night. Reminds me of the places that used to be by the Canal. Fisherman's Friend aside of Quintal's. Boy the plug collectors would have had to go on Valium just to walk in I can remember with my Dad walking in there and on the shelves were plugs in boxes by the hundreds. Atom's, Masterlure, Floyd Romans, CCBco, Bass Bomb, Gibbs. I miss that place and Old Biff's at the Bridge. He would open the doors on the cabinets and they were stacked with plugs in boxes. He would live there in season in a back room. Also Maco's and Calderras at the Buttermilk bay bridges. I am glad I was able to experience them, and the memories that went with them.
