Lures? Found something interesting - Chesapeake Bay Lures with a red
head and holographic foil body - very intriguing. Bought some in the
blue back herring color scheme and read headed white translucent body.

They have a great selection of fly making materials too - very nicely
priced - extremely competitive with a lot of speciality shops and a
great selection. Also picked up a new vise - 360 degree rotation and
numerous head angles - very nice vise for traveling and as a spare for
my bench vise.

Frankly, I was impressed on this trip.

We've had a Bass Pro here for years. I always manage to spend more
than I thought.

One of the worst things to happen to my bank account was when they
opened the Bass Pro shop just 10 minutes from my house :-)
