I dont get it...My local Walmart still has the same junk rods and reels that have been hanging up for several years, they never sell...Seems like the managers would get a clue and stock some quality tackle that would sell.
if you ever feel like takin a cruise, shoot up i71 to rt 250 in ashland youll be right at fur,feather and fin. that place is amazing and the prices are reasonable. you wont believe thyr fishin display :big_smile::cool2:I dont get it...My local Walmart still has the same junk rods and reels that have been hanging up for several years, they never sell...Seems like the managers would get a clue and stock some quality tackle that would sell.
FFF does have a great selection. Wally World does not cater to serious anglers anymore.if you ever feel like takin a cruise, shoot up i71 to rt 250 in ashland youll be right at fur,feather and fin. that place is amazing and the prices are reasonable. you wont believe thyr fishin display :big_smile::cool2:
I havent found our local WalMarts very receptive to suggestions either. They werent rude about it, just claimed that they have no control over what they stock. I found Gander Mountain very receptive to constructive criticism. I was talking to a clerk about an idea on what and how they stocked, and he says hang on a sec, my manager would like to hear this. Along comes the manager, he listened intently and asked a few questions, thanked me and went about his way. I'll be darned if the next time I was in there, they had used my suggestions. Sure made it easier to find tackle amongst all they carry, and even orderd in some things I had suggested.I actually proposed a list of tackle to a local kentucky walmart that would be attractive to catfish anglers............they basically told me to get bent and that all stores are reqired to have the same items.
man thats the same way i feel :angry: :big_smile: :cool2:I personally I think Wal-Mart is one of the worst things to happen to this country. They screw their empolyees, they have been banned from some counties in some states and they ship money to China by the boat load but people still flock in to buy there worthless goods. I'll drive a long way and spend a lot more to not buy anything at Wally World but thats just me and if a lot more people did the same then it would go back to the way Wal-mart was when it started, only American made.
they take away from smaller businesses, and really they sell a bunch of crap, i know a few have got good deals on fishing things there but it does not help the local economy.. i buy all my fishing tackle at a small fishing store in dayton, all the guys are nice, they order what ever you want and the prices are good.. they have my business for a long time..I personally I think Wal-Mart is one of the worst things to happen to this country.

THEY HAVE IN LOGAN I SEEN THEM LAST NIGHT WHEN I WAS THERE 3 1/2 &5 FT ONES I THINK THEY WAS $26.95I ask about castnets yesterday at our local store. The manager said that they didn't sell well last year so they didn't order any more. Duh' if they didn't sell well how come there weren't any left? I told him it was alright since I would be going to Coshocton where they kept them in stock and would get one there. He said they kept them in Coshocton because of the cat fishermen there and the Muskigum river. A whole 27 miles! lmao I quit trying to exp[lain things to them years ago. :roll_eyes:
