One of my local shops in north jersey after 100+ years is closing there doors soon as well.

Sucks but big box stores take over day after day.

100+ years? Newark Sinker/Fairfield Sporting Goods has been around for a long, long time. That was the only store I know that might have come close but not 100+ years. The guys who were there when it moved from Newark were incredible. Frank, Adrian, and Clarence really knew their stuff. That was another place that would do rod and reel repairs. I know they would take a damaged reel in from a customer and if it was an emergency, they would take a reel out of a box and replace the damaged part with a part from a new reel without having the customer go through the warranty hassle. They did the same with rods too.
