You know, for all the advantages of huge selection and price that Sportco offers I have never been impressed with the day-to-day management of the place. I'm mostly just tired of fighting the trafifc to get there in the middle of winter steelhead season only to find out that they're out of 1/0 AND 2/0 hooks, 1/4 inch snubber AND the the floats I needed. Try finding #2 steel toward the end of duck season...out of stock again! Elk calls in mid-September because you lost yours...forget it! They always seem to have plenty of walleye lures and pink gore-tex jackets!

I'm sure I'll continue to stop in from time to time but I have never been able to depend on them to have what I need when I need it.

GB,
That was way raw! Comes down to some more wayward management. Perhaps their huge market share has them a little complacent?


I do miss the neighborhood small sporting goods shops!
