most likely will never go. Why would I? To get some crappy brand name knock off for 50 cents less. Its not worth the gas money to drive down.

That's pretty much sums it up for me as well. Especially when you can order from the catalog if it's something you really need that more local shops don't have.

my wife is head of women's retail at Beans. Going to BassPro would be like sneaking over to Squire's for a burger.

come on, at the very least bass pro is a fun place to window shop if you are in the area.

i rarely buy anything from cabelas or bass pro for surf fishing. it's just so specialized a sport that these big-box type of specialty retailers don't carry a lot of the equipment. for that, you go to a mom and pop b&t.

actually, the last thing i bot from bass pro was a spot hogg optical sight for my bow. they have a big hunting selection there that seems to be more interesting than the fishing stuff.
