That’s one of my favorite bait shops up at New Melones Reservoir near Angel’s Camp, CA. It’s located in the Mother Lode near where the biggest nugget in California was found which is how it got it’s name – any rich pocket of gold is a “Glory Hole.”
Now that you got your history lesson, I’ll admit that every time I see the sign I think about a certain ex-girlfriend.

Glory Hole…Mother Lode?

I like the way you think, DJ.
