CJ's gonna spank me for the props but when I shop for bass gear it's at Bass World West. Why, because they treat you with respect. I always get great service and they have most, if not all, I need. I was just there the other day and Chris spent time sharing some tips on modifying spinnerbaits with me. That was invaluable. Unlike another shop that sells bass tackle and boats locally. There, I always get sized up as I come through the door as if I am cool enough to warrant even getting a "hello" or not. I have never measured up I guess. Other places I dig are The Longfin in Orange (my stop for saltwater stuff as well as some freshwater items)--I'm always greeted there if not ribbed a little and get good advice and the stuff I need. Tackle Warehouse has always filled my online orders accurately and timely when I've used them. You might check out these stores if you haven't already.
