What you really need to do is talk to some local fishermen and see
what they use - I suspect my picks here in Georgia might not be the
best baits there. Are there any local bass clubs in your area?
Asking for club members advice might get you in good with them.

My local bait store will special order anything I want - and he
usually orders a dozen extra to stock. That stuff usually sells -
doesn't hurt when I mention it in my local newspaper column.

Good luck with your new store.
