I buy from Academy first then maybe BPS or Cabela's. I found Cabela's had better quality on their clothing than BPS any day. Sportsman's Warehouse was my all time favorite outdoor store, period.
Hi Brad, hope you're doing well. We love supporting small businesses, and especially Bait Shops. I've been in your baitshop many times, nice place. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Maybe get you some Slabsauce in it. I should send you a sample kit. PM me.

Can anybody say....
MONOPOLY
I try not to give Johnny Morris any money unless it’s an emergency and need it right now.
I try to support local and small companies.

I prefer the “old” Cabela’s but, IIRC, it’s major shareholder was a hedge fund who wanted to sell off Cabela’s assets. Bass Pro stepped in as a buyer to at least save the Cabela’s name. I think Cabela’s had gotten to the point where they didn’t have a lot of options.
I've been personally affected by monopolies, big time. Namely Google and FB. Please use Bing or DuckDuckGo, and of course Crappie.com. Once companies get so big, and can disregard (and step on) competition, they abuse their user base to take total control. It's almost human nature for them to do so, because they can, but they 100% need to be reigned in. I have a lot to say, with specifics that have negatively impacted Crappie.com, but I'll leave it at that, as it's liable to get political.
Academy near here is a sad store to go in, mostly clothes and shoes, and "Sorry, we are out of what you're looking for".
Around here in the New Orleans area Dick's Sporting Good doesn't even sell tackle anymore.
