Just sitting here wondering. I just got some Jigs from TFF'er that I bought. A little on the pricey side. but have no problem with giving them the business. So i was wondering if there are others that think like me. Of course i will go to the big Box store to get some things. but I prefer to support smaller businesses.

I like smaller business on things like that for sure. I don't want to buy my next truck from a guy down the street that just started assembling them, but for fishing stuff I like supporting local

i have realized that there is some talented people doing product better that the big companies.

I find myself buying more and more from the smaller companies. I just prefer to use things that aren't on the shelves at Academy or Bass Pro. I can usually find things cheaper and with better quality at small businesses.

we have many great tackle manufacturers right here in TX. Let's support them. Stay local.

I always go to barlows....small box store, but carry all the name brands, and cheaper than most of the big box companies.

I thought Barlow off of 75 closed? Has it relocated?

Small shops all the time

I much prefer smaller shops!

i want to give a shout out to Stump Thumper Jigs. very good Quality. Can't wait to rip some lips with this next set I just got in.

Im a big proponent of small shops and individual bait makers...I love to meet new people and like to see them succeed...with that said 75% of my soft plastics come from Thermocline lures.

I'm a instinct buyer, if I see something I want,I buy it...

I was in there a few months ago and it was open, I hadn't heard of it closing...... it's not open on weekends, but You can always order online from the catalog.

small always better on baits try to custom order from a big chain.

I've got some great friends that make plastics and hand ties as well!! Happy to give them my $$$. Some of em even get their insurance from me so it's a win for both of us!!!w
