Does anywhere sell crickets near Peytonsville/Goose Creek Bypass exit in Williamson Co?

[Mossyoakbuck]

I am going to be fishing tomorrow with my young son at a farm pond and need to find some crickets. Does anybody know if there is a gas station (or anywhere for that matter) near the Peytonsville Rd/Goose Creek Bypass exit on 65 that sells crickets? I've bought crickets from Petsmart before but they were really small and expensive for what you got.

I grew up using crickets and like using them much better than any type of worm but wondering if it's a little too early for crickets. If I have to I'll just run to Academy and get some worms as a last resort.

Did you find crickets? If not try some meal worms and red wigglers vs night crawlers.

I haven't yet. We are heading out later this morning. There are two gas stations on the way that I'm going to check out. Will get some worms from Academy on the way just in case I can't find crickets.

It's probably still a little early for most stores to be stocking crickets.

Waxworms! Best bluegill bait I've ever used.

Catalpa worms when you can find them

If you find some, better stock up before folks like this. Turkey season is right around the corner.

PetsMart may have them to feed to snakes/lizards.

We got some meal worms but didn't have any luck. I got crickets from Petsmart last year but they were really small and wasn't impressed with them.

I'll just need to wait a little while longer. With that, does anybody know of any places in the Brentwood area that sells them besides Petsmart?
