Yes, been there a couple times You are right, talk about a candy store. I could easily spend a couple hundred without blinking. I miss when he would have demos during the winter. It was also a time to see friends. I've known Garcia for a long time. He is what I call a "gentleman's, gentleman". Fortunately, I still communicate with him.

I have and he has. Both shops are great places to see friends. I'm sure Greg doesn't know me or I'd ask you to give him my regards. How's he doing BTW?

He is taking care of his parents that are both over a hundred. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DrLogik 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2021 I'm lucky where I live in this regard. There are three local shops (one is an Orvis store and two independents), plus a Cabelas AND and Bass Pro. I've been a customer of the independents for decades and only go to Cabelas for bass fishing gear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
