Waxies in Cheyenne?...

[Boowee]

Any of my fellow hard water anglers in Cheyenne know of a place in town that carries waxies?

Go to PETCO they have wax and meal worms and fish worms and night crawlers. Not at bad prices either.

Thank you gentlemen...  And DOH!!!

That's some great info! I bought some freeze dried ones at Walmart a couple weeks ago...definitely not the same! Not tryin to high-jack thread, but being new to the area (Wyo native, recently relocated back home from Minnesota)... Where does a guy buy live minnows and use them legally? There are a ton of rules here that I'm NOT used to! Thx for any info!

If you want too you can also buy wax and meal worms on ebay.

Thank you gentlemen...  And DOH!!!   

Whats DOH  Don't say if it's bad I'll ask around town

[Boowee]

The "DOH" is my attempt at Homer Simpson, I found waxies here in town though, so I retract my DOH.

To all my fellow Cheyenne hard water anglers that didn't know, guns 'n gear on lincoln way has waxies for sale too.  Should've put this on my last reply.

Thanks, Boowee,  Good to know they have them too.

Just bought 3 containers from Petco last Wed. for a trip up around Wheatland... Cost me $14 dollars and change with tax.... Watch out for sure... they did not last me 3 days and they where all dead..... Will not buy them there again.... I can send for them for $16 for 500 from a company in Wis.... I have over the last 4 years and they have all lived for over 4 to 5 months that is the only way to get them.... They also guarantee them live delivery.... The first year they froze in shipment and they sent me another 500 free of charge and no shipping cost... Should of done that this year, Will again next year for sure...... I think at Petco they keep them too cold... as they are with the worm, and meal worms which can take colder temps... Waxes most like it 55 to 60 degrees.... benwyo..... Just my experience.... with Petco....and wax worms..

That is not good news.  I have always had good luck with the ones that I bought at Petco.  Have not bought any there this season though.  The last ones I bought there was at the end of the season last year, kept those not used in the refrigerator until the beginning of this ice season and most of them were still alive.  Good to know that one can order them for a reasonable price, thanks for that info.
