I choose Academy simply because they have all of my basic tackle needs for a good price!

I also find Amazon is a good place to order tackle. If you are a Prime member the shipping is free. Prices are about the same.

Academy normally has the best prices if they have what I need. Dicks has a location close to me and I often find things there that I need. If I can't get it at Academy or Dicks, I order from Tackle Warehouse.

I selected Academy as my favorite, pretty good selection and price points too. A new Academy opened in Denton. New meaning, within the past year or so, I expect. Great selection, and stocked well.
The Academy in Lewisville could restock a little more frequently. I dislike visiting a store to spend $ - only to discover they're out of stock - return two to three weeks later and the same inventory exists - same holes - same me walking out without making a purchase.
I can see small mom & pop shops having to accrue a specific size order to meet the minimums to purchase from their suppliers. I have to think Academy with their warehouse and online sales has to have the stock to refill those shelves and hook hangers in a more timely manner.

I remember the days before Academy came to S.A. and Walmart was about the only place because they put all the mom and pop stores out of business. They had wall to wall tackle. When Academy moved in it took a while, but Walmart started having less and less which I guess was a good thing.
Just one more cast!

Clearance rack at any and all sporting goods stores. For 'gills or crappie, don't need the "designer" jigs, or the "must buy" tackle. Jigs get em all the time and I fill my tackle box(crappie and sunfish)on the cheap, and can hold my own on almost any fishing hole I hit.

I picked Academy also, but really like going to Fishing Tackle Unlimited whenever I'm back in Houston.
