Anglers Pro Tackle. I don't get over there often but they usually have what I'm looking for when I do. Nice folks too.

My favorites were Smitty's in Oak Cliff and the Fishing Store in Garland. Joe Axton had a store in Mesquite that was ok. Most all the mom and pop stores are gone so in my area is either BPS or Academy. Both serve the purpose.
I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later. I get an allowance every month. I have PU truck and a bass boat, I am blessed.
Conscience never acquits, it either accuses or excuses.

Best tackle..??? ..I have to say Bass Pro Shop in Grapevine. I get a 10% discount, plus points,...I can shop on line, and be in and out at lunch, and not have to LOOK for what I need,...mostly short checkout lines. I use Oak Ridge at Fork, usually have what I need,..I'm about done with Academy, stocking is too hit and miss.. their rod section by my house is terrible..

US Sports Sales was by far the biggest tackle shop in north Texas before they sold out to Fun and Sun.
Their soft plastics wall was 60 foot long itself.
Retirement best job ever.

Down South it would be FALCON LAKE TACKLE. Every year the owners have to take time to type out and issue hundreds of Licenses for both Texas and Mexico and never once have I seen or heard them treat a customer as if it was a hassle. If they didn't have or were out of something I asked for their reply has always been "we can have that for you in a couple of days". Always positive and willing to hunt down the lure or items I was looking for. Anyone that fishes Falcon Lake knows that place can eat up gear. If the Bass are all over a certain bait or color FLT will usually have a stockpile. A must stop when you are in Zapata.

Deep S. Texas- FLT. Falcon Lake and Tackle are run and owned by some good folk. I always try and stop by even though my tackle storage is full. When I open the hatch I sling out hard baits lol
