I fish rivers.

Ted's in Lynnwood always had so much stuff. If he didn't have it, Mike would get it for you. Greg's in Lake Stevens is now closed. Now it's pretty much 3 Rivers, Triangle Beverage or the big stores.

Forks Outfitters always has the newest & best product at good prices. A walk through is a must just to see what is new in colors etc.

I used to go to Seattle for business once and a while and would stop by Outdoor Emporium. Sometimes during key Salmon months in the fall. It always amazed me as to how things they were out of. Bare Space!! It got to the point of me walking in and planning to spend $100+. I would walk out with nothing. I've worked in distribution-industrial retail for 30 years. You DON'T RUN OUT OF "A" ITEMS in season. Being out of the most popular #5 Vibrax and other product is idiotic. It wasn't just 1 time. When I complained to 1 of the workers, he pretty much said "we've told them". So I don't even bother anymore.
