Regs hurt. But the single biggest problem is the internet and how cheap these websites are able to sell tackle and gear. Regardless of what companies say they don't give a s#$t about tackle shops they claim price protection but just go online and find most tackle Selling for much less then tackle shops are "allowed to sell it for" or capable of selling it for with the overhead of a store and all that goes along with it. It's a damn shame that so many shops are closing.

If you guys don't want to see this happen anymore stop buying shit from online because it's cheaper. Pony up and support all your local shops! Stop buying from charkbait, eBay and all those other bulls@#t sites
