BINGO!!!---We have a very nice shop about two miles from my house--they carry Orvis Winston Sage Scott T&T Tfo and Reddington---the one sakesman can cast 110 feet with no problem and is a steelhead guide another guy is a great flyter and rodbuilder and Pa trout fisherman and the 3rd guy has a lot of trout and bonefish under his belt---there is a casting platform outside and ppl try the rod out and then buy the same rod online because its a great rod and they got a such a great bargain!
They just dont get it!
All the things above has cost the owner money so you can try the stuff out and assist you in your purchase and then give the profit to somebody that has no overhead except a dsl connection but yet the same ones complain when they lose the store that that offered it all as a service in the first place.
