Miami-Dade tackle shop question?

Featured Replies

Anyone know of tackle shop in the Miami area that sells wild shiners? Regular (domestic?) shiners don't last too long and their too small. Thanks

if your looking for shrimp or mullet I could help you. Try a bait shop close to the glades. probably your best bet.

hey maybe try bass pro?? I'm thinking they might have some shiners. I know the bass pro in Islamorada has all kinds of live bait. Give 'em a call!

I dont remember any shops that carried wild shiners. Until you got close to lake O.

I think Sawgrass and Holiday used to have wilds every now and again.

Just catch your own.

Live mullet? Where?? The Snook were slamming mullet down by cutler bay but I wasnt able to castnet any and of course they wouldnt hit anything else I had  :'(

You could easily get a handful of them right in Homestead Bayfront Marina. Although some of those mullet will more than likely be way to large for snook. darn blast using light tackle though.

Very rare to find them down south, most are domestic. Maybe Holiday Park griffin and US 27, but I would call first.

I pick up shiners every once in a while at holiday park for the kids.  It's around 11 bucks for a dozen.  And they aren't the best quality in the world.

theres tons of mullet down here by black point (i live less than 5 minutes from it). i know one of the tackle shops on old cutler used to sell shiners , but i havnt been into one of those in years.

if anyone is down around my way , im always down to fish.  ;)

Thanks for the info everyone! I'm hoping to replace my castnet soon for those mullet and as far as the shiners go, I think I'll just stick to lures  ;D
