Location: Menasha, WI | They seem to be out of stock everywhere, retail and online. Anyone know if they're on the shelves somewhere in the Fox Valley?

| Can't find them anywhere either, looked at Sheels, Gander, Fleet, doesn't even look like anyone is stocking them. I did pick up some clown and alewife. |

Location: Menasha, WI | Fleet in Oshkosh has #4s and they have an empty hook where the #5s are supposed to be so they did have some stocked at one point. I'll keep looking for a week or 2 and then order straight from Northland if necesssary.

| Bob, If anyone wants to join in, We could order directly from Northland... and split the cost.

Location: Colgate, WI | Bob,
I just bought 10 packs from Fleet in Oshkosh today when coming home from MWS in Winnieconnie. They have plenty on the floor plus they were 15% off.
Dominic, I thought you would have been all over these already. Have you been on the bay yet? It's cooking! |

Location: Menasha, WI | Thanks Craig. I just ran over there and bought the last eight 3-packs off the shelf! The 15% off was a bonus!

| Fleet in Green Bay has a bunch left. I was just there but they are out of the #4 size. They do have #5's and #3's in stock. |

| Just wondering why you would want 30 of the same colored blade, do you throw them out after each fish you catch? |

Location: Menasha, WI | scott, Some of us have addictive tendencies when it comes to stocking up on supplies. My case is slight, but I have nearly a 500 blades even though I can only run 3 at a time. With 24 in my box, I don't have to worry if they're out of stock for a very long time. Thank goodness I haven't been seriously bitten by the crankbait bug.....yet.... Others are tourney anglers and need to be able to rig up to 6 lines of the "hot presentation," so redundancy is a necessity, especially if you're fishing where esox may bite you off.
If you want a 3-pack, I'd be happy to work something out.

| I know what you mean about the crankbait bug, seems like I gotta buy a couple new ones everytime I'm at Fleet or Scheels, what really gets me are all the Reef Runners at The Sportsman, and I like the blades too, just ordered about 40 from Tommy Harris. |
