Good morning,
I was hoping someone might be able to direct me to some bait and tackle shops on St. Thomas other than the one in Red Hook. We are looking for pole spears and they are out at the moment. Any help would be appreciated! Locations on St. John would be helpful also. We need these as soon as possible! Thanks!

Or if anyone has or knows anyone who has them for sale personally, let me know please!

It's been a while (year or two?) since I've been in but Admiralty Dive on STT (downtown, inside WIndward Passage Hotel - what used to be Holiday Inn IIRC) used to stock a variety of spears, spearguns and accessories. http://www.admiraltydive.com/index.html

::edited to specify STT::

Which place did u look at in red hook? The dive shop has the collapsible ones but $$$. The place all the way at the end towards the coffee shop usually has a bunch in stock that's where I got my first one & was like $80. Just ordered another from amazon because the tri tips suck lol. 6ft with a single tip and large barb for $45 shipped. Gonna try the new one out tomorrow 🙂

Oh and the spearfishing tournament is this Sunday at Hull. U may be able to find someone who is selling theirs/old poles.
