Has anyone had any experience buying fish from Hopper Stephens in Lonoke, AR?

Have not dealt with them since the mid 90's but they were top notch back then! We bought from them a few years in a row, and one year (1995) I ordered 95,000, average TL 8" channel catfish for some public waters in Florida I was over, and we could not find one under 8" TL in the bunch and no stray species. They were very professional and knowlegable. There are good hatcheries out there, but many more bad ones. I trust Hopper Stevens and feel they are one of the good ones.

We bought from them about a month ago. Very nice and knowledgeable. Great fish we picked up.

Only got fish from them once (as greg mentioned). They were very nice people and loaded up my truck quickly.

Thanks for all the feedback. Glad to hear everyone had positive experiences. May have to give them a call.
