Do y'all prefer to buy baits of like tackle warehouse or buy them in person at like cabelas or bass pro? Why?

If I can, I prefer to buy from the mom and pop type stores. If I can buy from apt and brannans bass shop I will. I've had great experiences with both. They will bend over backwards to make ya happy.

I like to put my hands on them first.
but that isn't always possible


Ill even go through a peg of plastics looking for one that has the better glitter or color

Like mentioned above, I like to support the tackle stores around the lake area. Very rarely do I buy from a large retail store, except Academy because of convenience. I'll buy online before I buy from the big box stores.

Local tackle shops, when I can. I don't buy very much on-line I perfer to support my local economy.

I like buying soft plastics in person because I can see the color better in person. I buy hard baits online a lot because I don't have a problem spending $10-$15 on a bait online for some reason. And who doesn't like coming home and seeing a tackle warehouse package at your front door?

if its repeated stuff i always get and are familiar with color I will order them. new stuff i like to see first but limited access out here in the wind and dust of west TX

Anglers Pro Tackle has a great on line selection.

Sometimes I'm glad its that way, I buy too much garbage now... I do wish the local.owned tackle shops were still here I prefer them..

I order 90% of the time on line TW or Land big fish. I also like APT a lot like looking at baits in person. I'll pretty much burn out on academy same old thing. Bass pro shop but to expenses.

For those of you who prefer to buy in person, I think you'll find that Oak Ridge has a terrific selection and, in most cases, at prices equal to or less than what you'd pay online or at Bass Pro. In addition, we're committed to growing our selection dramatically this year. You'll find a WIDE selection of rods, reels, tools and tackle. If we don't have it, let us know what you want and we'll look at adding it.

I like to buy in person if I can. I like Academy and Cabelas - both are about 15 minutes from me. I love to go to Bass Pro, but for the last couple of years I have mail-ordered instead of driving a half hour because the road construction has made the drive a lot longer and way more nerve wracking.

I prefer hands on but it seems nobody every has the bait or color I'm looking local and box store. I just gave up and do monthly orders from TW

I always support my local Mom and Pop first....It is nice to know the person when you walk in and more imporant if you have a problem they seem to care....At least give them the chance it is nice to walk in the place and trade with them plus the tax we pay supports are local schools...Totally agaist no tax on the internet save the Brick and Mortar business SHOP LOCAL !!!!

Dang right great place to have at lake fork Oak Ridge Rules.....
