Anybody seen the new Gander Mountain opening off of I-84 and NY Route 17 on
Exit 121 in Middletown, New York?

It's on steriods.

120,000 square feet. Mammoth.

It should do wonders for all of the independent tackle shops in the Catskill
/ Mid-Hudson region.

It's so big they're having TWO days of grand openings.

Grand opening(s):
March 25/26 2004



If its anything like the Gander Mountains in Wisconsin the local fly
shops have nothing to worry about. Their selection of fly gear is
perfunctory to say the best. We just had a new one open up, quite
large by the way, but its fly fishing section is identical to the old
store and the prices are not any cheaper than you can get from most
fly shops.
