Bass Pro in Portage
Bass Pro Shops, America's most popular outdoor store, today announced they have agreed to build one of their outdoor super stores at AmeriPlex at the Port, a new 80-acre retail development by Holladay Properties in Portage, Indiana at the intersection of I-94 and State Route 249 adjacent to the Little Calumet River and the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore located off the southern shore of Lake Michigan.
The mega size Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World store will be one of the most exciting to date in the company's retail expansion and will offer a restaurant and expansive boat showroom featuring a complete selection of Tracker, Nitro,Tahoe and Mako boats built by Tracker Marine Group- the world's largest manufacturer of fishing boats.
Offering customers immediate access to great fishing on Lake Michigan via the Little Calumet River, the store will feature a 25-boat slip marina which will give customers the opportunity to actually test drive Tracker boats on Lake Michigan. The store will also feature an outpost store to allow customers traveling to recreational areas the ability to pick up gas and supplies-licenses, lures, live bait and more-and be on their way.
Known for their great customer service, Bass Pro Shops is expected to hire approximately 300 passionate outdoor enthusiasts from the area.
I plan on being one of those 300!!
I pray that I may live to fish until my dying day. And when it comes to my last cast I then most humbly pray. When in the Lord's great landing net and peacefully asleep. That in His mercy I be judged, BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.
