Carlson was I good good guy, I bought a lot of big shinners,and  big blue cups of wax worms from him,always treated me well,and would pass info as to where the action was. This is not a plug,but on 68 the other side of Zeli,there Will's Bait shop,the woman that' runs it is very nice and fair with bait.

Gene was a really good guy. He was always more than fair and like Captain 54 said, always gave you good info. A while back he told us that his doctor told him to quit working and to retire. He said "and then what, no, I'm just going to keep working". He passed away in May 2015. Rest in Peace Mr. Carlson.

Carolson was a close family friend and treated me like a son. He passed away from heart failure a couple weeks after his brother. He knew it was coming. To you guys thinking about wills. Don't waste your time if you wanna have each minnow counted and then be taken out if there's to many then be over charged that's your dumb decision. Best place around now is the guy in the storage sheds off the slippery rock exit. Has everything you can think of bait wise
