Dicks.

Galyans is a first-class sporting goods operation, with wide selections
of fishing, hunting, boating and outdoor gear of all kinds. The chain
sold out to Dicks, which is a couple of steps up from Wal-Mart.

And the devolution continues...

A passing thought:

"So community colleges are accessible, they're available, they're
affordable, and their curriculums don't get stuck. In other words, if
there's a need for a certain kind of worker, I presume your curriculums
evolved over time." —George W. Bush, Niceville, Fla., Aug. 10, 2004

Try Gander Mountain, if you have one nearby. If they continue growing,
they'll bury Dick's and everyone else. Great store.

As I grow older, it's sad to see some of the old stores gone after fifty years
of service. Wal*Mart just doesn't have some of the heavier fishing tackle I
usually want.

I have been shopping at West Marine for fishing equipment the last few years.
They have the bigger tackle I need, and are only two blocks from the marina.

Sometimes I guess it is just me. I still get angry when stores don't have all
the parts for my 1955 Chevrolet, or proper coot training equipment.
