It’s down to $1.77 a pound in area supermarkets. If you’re going to make Lazarus’ type of bait, now might be the time to buy it in quantity.

It must have been a one-day sale. Went this morning and everything but the Jimmy Dean applewood smoked 12 oz packs were back up to $3.55 per pound. The Jimmy Dean stuff was on sale for $1.99 for 12 oz with a limit of 2 packages per customer. I went to 2 grocery stores and got 4 packages.

Since I’m going to make Lazarus’s bait with it, what I have will be a good start. I’ll just freeze it till I get ready to make bait.

Go to a cheaper discount type grocery store and look for the boxes of ends and pieces. They’re usually the cheapest.
