The South Side will rise again.
At least when it comes to a bait shop.
A source said that Bridgeport Bait & Tackle is coming to 3549 St. Halsted on Chicago’s South Side. That fills the huge void left when Henry’s Sports & Bait, the iconic urban bait shop, closed in November on South Canal in Bridgeport.
The new bait shop will be hyper-focused on local fishing needs.
