Wow! This seems to be a bad disease that is coming to a theater near you soon! Outdoor Pro Shop looks like the same! Sad! :roll:

No Jeff hasn't work there in over 10 years now or maybe longer. Merritt Gilbert retired about 4 or 5 years ago. And Karen from the original group is still there she did all the ordering and shipping on line products. They've got discounts going on till it all gone.

I called today Saturday I was told when everything is sold. And all fish mounts are pick up that are on the walls. Most likely by the end of the month. Give them a call.

I went by there a few weeks ago before the announcement. Sad, been going there at least 30 years from Visalia. Would go by and chat with Merritt and get some worms. They were the first to have a 6 inch robo worm in hologram shad. Had to buy like 1000 bags Merrit said for special run. Jeff was cool to talk too as well. Thanks. BC
