I try to buy locally whenever I can. I have two $25.00 gift cards for Bass Pro Shops from Christmas that I still have not used. But I am going to do an inventory tomorrow and get my terminal tackle in shape for the Potholes Open. So I am sure Auburn Sports will see some dollars from my wallet real soon. I just wish we had a one stop place that had everything we Bass guys use. If you have ever been to some of the places down south you would drool. Nothing like them here.

OE and Sportco are doing alright, but it really does show that the economy is really impacting the fishing industry.

Yeah, I been hearing a little buzz about this and that GI Joes is in chapt 11 bankruptcy. Things are tough all over and getting tougher in the recreational / sports industry. Just a reminder to all of us, that we have a great resource in Auburn Sports and Marine and that supporting our local tackle store now more than every is important.
