Thanks for the tip. I was planning a trip...but now I will shop online and use the gift certificate that I got.

To be honest, I shop at and seek out New England Bait and Tackle Shops. They have the best selection, they know what they are talking about, and I have found the pricing is very competitive. (Granted, x-mart will have a special on some plastics or something...but, given the cost of gas...not worth the trip.)

Again, thanks for the tip.

Aside:
Are they here yet?

I had gone to the grand opening with my 3 y.o. son and we just looked at all the taxidermy and the fish in the big tank. I thought it seemed like a good place to kill some time with the kid and pick up some terminal tackle. Well, I got a gift certificate for Christmas and finally went back last night. Everyone on this site that said the place is no good for saltwater is dead on. I couldn't even find repacement trebles or decent jigheads in the size I wanted. I ended up picking up some Ande line and a pair of shoes for my wife (trying to build up some goodwill with the season upon us). They do have some good clothes and shoes, but don't go expecting to find a lot of saltwater gear. Even the prices on the few good reels they carried were no better than you'd find a the local shop. I even asked for a manager and expressed my dissapointment about the piss poor selecton. He told me he's been hearing a lot of the same sentiment and by NEXT YEAR they should have a better selection.
