My supplier is out in Bay Co. Does anyone have any recommendations for quality bag oysters in Walton?
Thanks in advance! Gotta have the oysters for the ball game.

Thanks guys.Boxes are generally the "selects" and are all singles and not clumped.Generally a little pricier.I called Genes late and Gene said he should be having some come in around 4pm but I can't wait till then.I forget how far Shrimpers is,closer than Destin Ice is from Panama?

Much closer. It is after the Santa Rosa Post Office but before the intersection of 30A and 98. It is on the right as you are headed West. You might check Goatfeather's as well.

I called several places for oysters and Shrimpers was the best price and has more oysters per box. They were very good.

Sorry, you can't wait until Gene gets his in. He has some of the best and you know they are really fresh. We drive from SOWAL to get his oysters. Next time if you call him earlier he will save them for you. Good luck.

We've done both and prefer Shrimpers. As does our Canadian shucker.
