Squilla available

I have Google watch set up on "mantis shrimp" and this came up today. There is a healthy stomatopod population of Corpis Christy, so I susupect that if you are in the area, you could get some Squilla cheap.

Corpus Christi/Nueces Bays -- Nueces Bay Bait is open for business and they've
had live shrimp lately, along with crab and sea lice (mantis shrimp). ...

This is all that I know, but thought I would pass it along.

The first mantis I ever saw was at a bait shop. Ii didn't know what it was, other than WAY cool, but they wouldn't sell it to me. I'm kind of glad about that now. Something tells me I would have ended up FUBAR if they had let me take it.
