Reel Life closure?

It's a shame but Bobby I have to disagree with baitshops charging 5% more than these online tackle shops.

I can go online and buy a package of Gulp for $5.00-$6.00 and sometimes less when they run deals, in most neighborhood tackle shops they hit you for $ 9.99...that's a huge hit when you're buying more than a few packs. Same goes for Spros, reels, rods...etc.

Honestly I will only shop in a tackleshop if I need something that day. I can say I've probably saved over a grand shopping online in the last 5-8 years.
Yeah it sucks and I feel bad for the shops but there is no reason they have to over charge like they do.
