I will be going offshore next week on the scat cat and would like to buy some ribbon fish and sardines to take with me. Last year when I went on the scat cat I didnt bring any and the crew didnt want to give me any out of the freezer so im taking my own and going to be prepaired this time.

located on the Intracoastal Channel as you're leaving Aransas Pass on Hwy 361 toward Port Aransas. South Bay Marina is on your left about mid-way between Aransas Pass and Port Aransas.They are accessible by land or boat.

I was just down there. The Wal Mart store at Flour Bluff had the ribbon fish in a freezer in sporting goods section.

Asian groceries may have some..I would call first.
Yes ..the building is wood/tin.I listed the phone # so you can call first..they will normally have baits when others do not.
The store is easy to find.you will see it from the hwy.
