Tackle shops are kind of strange. The one guy that I go to has proven himself time over time. After years of being right, I just accept what he says as being right. Typically though, I don't ask where they were catching since I stick to my own little spots anyways. I just ask the general info.
In fact, I know some people who report their catches from being from somewhere else. They would say they caught a fish from the marina when I know they really got it off of Southport harbor. Of course I don't do this because it seems like the nights I do well, word gets around faster than I can walk. When I don't do well, I have everyone come up to me and say, "How'd you do?" Such is life I guess.
There are other shops in the area such as Ricky Mola's Fisherman's World and Stratford B&T. Both of those owners has been in the Saltwater Sportsman Magazine Seminars so they have to be good anglers or something but I will continue to patronise the other shop.
