    I live 4miles from Sloan’s. They also have a great hardware section and a deli that serves exceptional lunch and breakfasts. I’m spoiled, but I drive by Sloans everyday and my car tries to pull into their parking lot without me having anything to do with it.

    Dude, while everybody is thinking how cool this is - take a minute to think about your local mom and pop bait and tackle stores. As the owner of one I can tell you we are a dying breed and need all of yall's support! Your business will be much more appreciated and your cust serv experience much better the vast majority of the time. Thanks, Brad @ Flint River Outdoors.

      Id support a local shop every time over a big name brand store, But don't have anything within miles of my home in south east MO. I get it that we dont have a ton of lakes here to fish but lots of us go to the ozarks and fish tournaments in boats and kayaks. I have wanted to open a shop but have no clue how or if it would even survive.

    Awesome video, Larry! That's an awesome little shop 🎣 Hotter take than I thought, but if your (whoever is reading this) state has problems with invasive Asian carp, I 1000% recommend you go snagging for some! One hell of a fight, and they gotta go if we want to protect our local ecosystems 🤌🎣 (for rigging, I had luck with searching for spoonbill snagging rigs 🤙)
