The Sportsmen Den in Whitney Point is permanently closed!!! The best bait shop around if you are coming to Whitney Point is owned by Don David: TOPLINE LURE AND BAIT 2138-2 on rt. 26 about three miles past the entrance to Dorchester park. His place is on the right if you are heading north.  He has anything you need to ice fish including information. (607)692-4154 I think his hours are 6-6. He might be closed sundays though. P.S. If you see Kemak or Carr Rd. you went to far.  :tipup: Custom made jigs too!!!

Cookie's Bait and Tackle   (closed for winter)          Hours 7am-7pm (7 days a week)
7627 state route 298
Kirkville, NY 13082
(315)633-5378

My grandparents owned cookies bait and tackle for many years. They opened shop back in the 70's in Bridgeport (few miles south of Oneida lake) was under a different name, but was around for many years. They closed shop and my grandmother reopened some years later and she has been going strong for a good 20+ years. Huge variety of jigs and spinners  commonly used for walleye fishing. Sells all bait types from salted minnows in the spring to crayfish, minnows, leeches, nightcrawlers and more during the summer. There were rumors going around the shop would be closed for good due to a death in the family, but the shop will remain open.


Opens april 1st starting trout season.           Open all night/morning opening day for pike

Do onto others as you do onto you.

Hi! Just wanted to let everyone know that Saratoga Tackle (now Saratoga Tackle, Archery & Gifts) after 14 years on Saratoga Lake for several reasons had to relocate. We're now in Schuylerville. 111 Green St beside Subway shop, it's actually the corner of Rte. 29 & Green St. on the right as you head into town from Saratoga. We have the same phone number 518-584-3952.

Anyone know if the bait shop on Oneida's south shore, between Bridgeport and Lakeport (near Chapman Park) is still open?
Have a phone number?

Rochester has a fishing show on the radio called Let's Go Fishing.  It says it is hosted by Bayside Boat and Tackle.  I thought that they stopped selling bait in the winter a few years ago.  Does anyone know if they started selling bait again?

   Whitney Point Preppers is closed. There are no minnows right now in Whitney Point. Ernie's in Richford or the baitshop in Chenango Forks.
