Hand's B&T

The New banner is up and Ron has done an awesome job for us it looks great. Hand's tackle has expanded over the winter and we are proud to announce the opening of Hand's Too. The Shop is located before the bridge in to Cape May on the right hand side. The shop was formerly Cold Spring B & T. Hands Too will offer a larger selection of quality tackle and the committment to provide the best quality fresh live and frozen baits available, that our customers of Hands B&T have come to know. Hand's TOO has plenty of parking and easy access for trailered boats and is the first stop on the way to the ramps. The original Hands will still be the place to go for the best Live hard to get baits Like Live Spot, Herring and Mullet. The two stores will complement each other to bring to you our valued customers the best to ensure your quality fishing trip. I would like to thank all the barners who have made Hand's Tackle a success, When Ron came to me and told me about the Barn a few years back I would have never guested what a great asset you all have become to my establishment. Everyday it seems I run into a new customer that tells me he read about us on the Barn. I hope I help you guys a smuch as you all help me. Well last of all (I know I'm rambling) Hand's Too is opening this thurs for business blood worms are coming fri. along with fresh clams. Thanks again Tim Hand.

Hey Tim! That sounds great! I will be seeing a lot of you this year. When do you plan on opening the shop for business? It'll be just like old times when we worked together at that store when it was Bob's.

Congrats on Hands Too!! Ya gotta love that name. I am sure you will increase the volume of customers that already frequent that location. Your friendly disposition and jovy personality will definitly be a boost. Look forward to seeing you at both locations this year. HAPPY DAYS.

Congrats Tim, Good spot! I know it will be a success for you. I'm glad somebody bought the place that cares. The last time I was in there the guy tried to sell me old dead clams, Telling me they were in shock :rolleyes:
I remember when Adam Bomb used to work there when he was much younger, Adam Cracker, (he was under six foot tall). Do you guys recognize me since I started dying my hair white? HAPPY DAYS.

before the bridge, after the bridge, Hell, they'll be calling it "HAND'S BRIDGE" soon :D Congrats and great news Tim. I hated that long ride over the bridge at 5:30am ;)

Ya know Tim...when you first told me you were opening a second tackle shop, I immediately though to myself "hmmm...I should begin to think about raising our advertising rates!"...LOL!
Seriously, you mean to tell me that Hand's Bait & Tackle, the area's leading supplier of Live Bait, is now gonna have two stores to serve us? ...Life is good smile.gif
The addition of "Hand's Too" is, in my mind, a great move! Being the first bait & tackle store on the way into Cape May with plenty of room for trailer boats is huge. Team that with the great service we've all become accustomed to at the original Hand's and you've got a recipe for success smile.gif
Best of luck with the new store!
BTW, I'll be seeing you soon for some of them live herring of yours :D

Ron, buddy old pal old friend of mine, now we don't want to make any rash decisions, like raising the rates. Mike had a good theory is there a new boat coming? and can I put a big advertisement down the side. Thanks again everyone and I can't wait to get this show on the road. Tim

Mike, who works for me at Hands Too, told me some of his neighbors down here have gotten a few bass in the suds in the last few days on bloods, I also have fresh Mac's coming in tommorow bloods and fresh clams on fri. Thanks for all the kind words and have a happy St. Patty's day, my corn beef and cab is in the pot.
