Does anyone know what is going on the Home Road bait shop at O'shay. It looks closed. Any rumors about a new owner in the wind and if so, when will we know when we can get minnows there this spring?

That's a pretty ignorant statement. Sorry a bait shop isn't classy enough for you. Anyways, I drive by it every day for work. 100% looks closed down. Driving in every morning it was nice seeing all the " old timers " outside waiting for it to open just to drink coffee outside.

Remodeling has started... Sure hope the new owners take a better approach to having a successful store/bait as it’s the only location up in the northwest end. Could be a gold mine if some ❤ is applied. ‍♂

Wish them luck! Sure much more convenient for everyone rather than having to run over to Rt. 23 & Cheshire Market as stated earlier....

Yeah, the lady that bought new era market 2 years ago had no clue what she was doing.
I am pass by there often on my way to the ski club and they were bad about showing up on time.
Hopefully the new owners take it serious!

There's definitely money to be made selling bait and tackle along with food and snacks at that location. Unfortunately the last couple times I was there, the workers acted like I was inconveniencing them by coming into the store. The "bait shop" part of the business had shrunken significantly too. Good luck to the new store, hope it works out

OK you old farts, let's go back to 2002 when they replaced the old truss bridge. It was narrow and creaky and the fire department didn't like it. If you zoom in, you can see the weight limit was 8 tons and the clearance at the corners was 11' 4"

There were these structures as part of the bridge, does anyone know their purpose? What did it take to demolish these structures out in the water?

They were just starting to cut the bridge apart. What was that job like? You can see how old and rusted the metal is.
