Default Quick stop at the Top.....

The new Green Top store. They were closing so I wasn't able to spend that long looking. Took a couple pics of the new store.

Here's the crankbait isle......


Guns....you don't see all of them. Plenty in between on the left. And the fact that guns are selling faster than they can keep up with.


Didn't get a good pic of the 5 rows of Crossbows and Bows. Sorry

Wish our tackle shops were like that over here........

by which i mean row of rows of nothing but lures and lure rods, with glass cupboards of fancy spinning reels and baitcasters.


not to fussed about gun on the racks though (plenty of numptys over here that will be silly with 'em)

The GM in Hattiesburg has really trimmed back their fishing stock in the past year, but they do have decent sales on what they do have from time to time. As for the gun dept, you got better chance of scoring AJ McCarron's girlfriend than getting quick service.

I was there at closing time and they had a line of people filling out paper work to purchase guns. As you can see the gun racks were a little sparse........bad news for burglars and such!!!

Yep. The old phone is no longer working so I'm upgrading. Maybe I'll get a phone with a camera that takes a decent photo.

Your first pic has MORE lures than the Gander where I live has in THEIR whole store.
4 aisles of shoes and 1/4 of the store with womens clothing but heck, at least they had TWO packs of EWG 3/0 Gammies?

Yeah, ours isn't very big either.
Thank God they're here tho, or I'd be shopping at MC Sports and Wally World!

I actually have been to the new store. Although huge with a great selection of rods, it lacks the "feel" of the old store.

Yes I agree. I think the new location will take a couple visits to get used to the new location and how to get there. I ended up on the old road/exit to get into the store. Plus they don't have Phat Boyz BBQ right next door
