Maggots

Does anybody know what's up with the maggot situation? There are none to be had in Anaconda. I feel naked going to Georgetown without them.

I got the same fear..just ordered some today from an outfit ive never used called speedy worm..got 1000 for 22 bucks....they seem to have pretty good reviews....no way in hell would I risk going to g town without maggots....the gas station in Drummond usually has em..but since its still early season..call ahead to make sure..or order em bulk online.....I think there was a maggot thread a week or so ago if you scroll down with more online options....relying on 7 gables or sunshine may be a little risky....

I ordered 1000 from a place in New York. Supposed to be here Friday. I hope they make the trip without freezing.

Bob wards say they restock every Friday, but were totally out yesterday in butte. Gtown is the only game, so everybody passin thru is grabbin em up. I had some luck on pieces of worms last year.

maggot update...1000 spikes showed up today in the mail.. in above average condition...speedy worm did a great job packing them....in box lined with insulation board..then gell ice pack in bottom wrapped in newspaper....my advice would be to order on Monday so there is no chance of them sitting in transit over weekend....also take into consideration holiday mail increased load....
