Should be a nice store. Guess it took Cabela's coming here to finally get BPS to build.
Never been in a cabelas. Do they do all the stuff in side with animals and fish like bass pro?
Yes they do but as far as crappie fishing they don't have much. A little disappointed in the fly fishing department also. Not much in stock when I was they last week.Quote:

Said thing is bps is about the same way. If bps wants to do this store right they need to find out what we the hunters and fishers would like in there stores. Since we are the ones who spends money there. Since I got into crappie fishing one thing I found out is to stay away from big stores.Quote:

I agree. They said the reason is there is more hunting and fishing license holders in Spartanburg per than anywhere else in the state. ( I say bs) there may be more in the upstate but I don't really know. What we need is more smaller mom and pop stores.Quote:

Been in there once and agree Dave. Store was small in size but not in product. I was amazed at how much was packed in there. Stores like that is what we need more of. The bigger stores are nice and have a lot flashy stuff that you really don't need.
I was really disappointed with the new cabelas. Acadamy has just about as much tackle, and at a cheaper price. Cabelas doesn't have a saltwater section either. Somebody didn't do much research. You can get the stuff needed for walleye rigs though. It's all about the clothes. Major mark-up. $$$. Bring on the bps.
X2 on disappointed, I went there last sunday, what a let down! I left with nothing!, Nothing in there for me, I doubt I'll go back!
I dont by from basspro, either.
I have more Crappie fishing tackle than Cabelas, Bass Pro and any other store!

Was looking for bulk line. They didn't have much. Was looking for 8 ft cast nets, only saw 4 ft radius nets. I agree, should have researched local fishing needs better. BPS would have been better placed in Anderson.
I think you got more in your trailer than most stores got on their walls.:RoflQuote:

I should have gotten them when I was in there, but I was afraid they might walk off while I was working.
Bout how much is the shipping cost on them to SC??
I spend more with Monks at the show than I did with all the others combined. Great selection.
I haven't been in there yet. Plan on going just don't have the time.
If they are smart, I think their inventory will adjust to the local needs over time.
I certainly hope so.
