Title: Fresh Herring Cost
Post by: Hunterman on July 03, 2011, 08:49:15 AM: I just called down to the Hungry Whale in Westport to check on the price of their fresh herring so that I can budget bait money for this coming week end..I liked to of had 6 heart attacks, 17 strokes, and done some thing in my drawers that made the maid quit :yike: They want $6.49 a doz. :yike: Looks like my next call will be to Point Defiance Boat House..

I think I smell a gold mine coming :tup:
