Always got their catalogs though. Anyhow for y'all who don't know Sportsmen's is one of the bigger box stores that caters to outdoors men. They sell everything from ammo ,guns fishing equipment all kinds of clothing ,archery stuff camping gear ect ect. Same with places like Bass Pro, Cabela's ect. So anyway I had promised a few of y'all next time I go into one of these places I'd take alot of pictures a post soooooo here ya go.and no I'm not trying to flex on y'all , like seriously I could do that without writing all this and posting all these pictures O and I'm .ore then happy to try and answer any questions y'all might have So first off the fishing section: Not gonna lie was nice looking a fly gear up close ,never see alot of it at the house but Christ ....but on the rich side for me O so both these wall on this Isle are nothing but fly tying stuff ,not the actual flies Then crappie jigs and grubs. I know guys who probably have at least every one of these lol All this is just soft plastic bass worms Crank baits Some big swim baits ....which confused me because we don't have muskie or poke down here....gar many would chest one but idk. One of two walls of nothing but tackle boxes Actually did need a new cast net flbut for these prices I'll just hook and line my bait Then some off shore stuff and I'm legit thinking about making these to sell. Heck I can get 100' of that same cable for like $20 and the hooks bulked for like $30 a 100pc looks like easy money to me This is kinda what you could call the trash fish bait section. Stink bait ,punch bait ,dough balls and preserved bait fish for cat fish and carp And this is about the best your getting over here alot of the time for commercial made carp bait. Then again most people who are somewhat serious about catching rather dont even look at this ilse And a selection of bait casters These little baby rods are actually super fun to use. Makes a 3lbs fish fell like 20 O and boat anchors.... because....you might need an anchor Top class mate, you lucky ba$tard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
