With only 2 posts under your belt, and offering a seemingly scripted endorsement, I would guess the answer is yes...



Kitty... take this back to monthly meeting when everyone discusses how Cabelas can be improved:

Cabelas has "A LOT of A LITTLE" which is a term i came up with to describe their inventory and gear selection. they scratch the surface of each type of fishing just to cover the bases, but have a poor range of available products.

Wood plugs? they have tsunami and gibbs. (24 bucks for a gibbs danny?)
Plug bags? 1-2 choices. (B&M and shimano)
Rods? narrow selection for the surf.
VS? havent seen one in stock in 2 years.
Replacement korkers studs? nope.
Surf tops? nope.
Quality wading belt and accessories? nope

I guess when they were first opening i expected them to be the end-all be-all one stop shop for fishing... and they are not (especially when it comes to surfcasting) As big as Cabelas is, and as much gear as they have, they simply are missing some major key components when it comes to effectively outfitting and catering to anglers and the type of fishing they do... The end result is I would rather go to my favorite local tackle shop that does cover all the bases, because the owner and employees understand the need, and fill it.
