Thread: Bass Pro Shop Buying Cabelas

Well, there ya go. Better service, too. The big boxes just serve me to give me a place to walk around and look. There once was a time when these mega sports stores - L.L.Bean, BPS, Cabelas - were focussed on hunting and fishing supplies. Then, they started carrying pink camo pajamas for women (hopefully, just women) and flannel shirts made in Pakistan and everything went south after that. I have to look at them and say, "I just don't know who you are anymore!".

Ordered a bunch of jigs from Monk last year. Plan to do so again this year. I would much rather support the small guy for many reasons. Monk, just don't let them try to buy you out next. Unless it's a couple of billion and then we couldn't blame you.

I get all of my stuff from Monk

Yep. I offered $5 billion, and they laughed in my face.

FWIW, I buy almost all of my tackle from BP and C. Both are twenty minutes away, and I have cards that earn discount points at both.
