Drove all the way out to sportsmans on 7200 So.
from Rose park today to pick up a few basic things,
Like gulp maggots, plano tackle storage boxes, ext.
But after walking up and down the isles and I finally
realized that I had more of a selection of tackle than they did and not finding anything I was looking for,
I drove all the way back home and decided to order what I need from Cabela's or Bass Pro.
I can't believe that a store that big doesn't have anything in it, why even have the door open? [mad][crazy][frown]

The shelves are getting pretty bare for sure.
Try tacklewarehouse. Free shipping on orders over $50.
If you are anything like me and can't go near a tackle store without feeling compelled to spend $100 whether you should or not, it works out well.

Just got back from there myself and I agree 100%. What they do have, they have 1 of.
Their prices are up too. Smith & Edwards has the "Basic" line for $.10 cheaper per package, and Maniacs for $.40 cheaper, the selection is just as good.

I figured this out recently as well, complete waste of a trip and during rush hour traffic no less. I guess I can't complain to much, they've been on the verge of liquidation in recent months and in the past have always been good. In the near future one of two things will most likely happen, they will return to normal or close entirely. I for one, hope they make it.

If you think it is bad there, you ought to see our stores in Colorado. The one in Grand Junction where I live is practically empty. They could put all the inventory they have in a building half as small. Even if they special order something for me it takes 6 weeks to get and there is no guarentee it will ever come. The staff never knows what or when they are going to get shipments in. What a mess.

It's better now then it was a couple weeks ago. Seems they are getting some stuff in after filing. Still not the best selection as you said.

[:/] From more then a couple different outsources; I have been told if you or anyone you know has a "gift-card" you'd best be using it soon. Thought I'd pass that one on.
