Good topic.

I don’t have any places to add but hunters should be looking to get what they need for the fall right now!

I ordered some broadheads last week. Most things seem to have about double the shipping time.

I was on vacation a couple of weeks ago in Maine. Went to Kittery Trading Post and Cabelas up there. Kittery Trading was pretty well stocked in the fishing department but Cabelas had a lot of empty spaces on their shelves. I was pretty disappointed there.  >:( >:(

Screwy Louie's was open a couple of weeks ago when I was in the area. Mostly salmon oriented though. Something I don't get is, I was the only person in the store wearing a mask.

TI Bait Store still has a good stock.  And Trapper I did get past the 2nd grade so I understood you.

I stopped by Cabelas in buffalo three weeks ago and they had almost no sinkers ,swivels, or hooks.  Last week, I stopped again and found a few swivels but very limited supply of terminal gear.  Runnings in Brockport is about the same. No terminal tackle.  So I ordered some drop shot tungsten from fish USA. Took over two weeks to get to me.  I am now waiting for my draw lock for my bow to arrive.  It’s been a week for that too and still not here.  I think I better order some arrows now so I get them by 2021.
Yea, Trap, I get the mask order. I called in my local Home Depot for the same thing.  Manager told me people got “ belligerent “ when asked to put on mask so they don’t really enforce it. Said they even called the cops but nothing really happens.  As I was talking to him three people walked by without masks.  That was three weeks ago. Maybe it’s changed but I don’t know.
I’m shopping at Lowe’s now.

Cookies in Bridgeport and Lakeside Outfitter had plenty of fishing stuff recently. Much geared to Oneida lake but still what you'd need for pans, eyes and streams.
sorry no guns or ammo
Buy local if possible

I've struggled with finding the good stuff locally as well.  So I was doing some damage to the wallet last night on amazon.  Problem is there is a ton of knock off junk on amazon, from China...

I don’t buy much other than terminal tackle. Ive been able to get whatever I need online. The stores around me are wiped out...not that it maters to me.

Most big box retailers set an order and inventory and that’s what they get. The extraordinary circumstances of the last year depleted their inventory in short order. They won’t reorder....they can’t.

Mac, Screwy Louie's is a B & T Shop by Fairhaven Beach State Park at Little Sodus Bay. Spanky's another one I believed closed down recently.

in my  searching i  found a  12  lifetime   fishing kayak at wal mart   i also discovered it  weights 78 pounds ..... i  thought about  it until i lifted it.... i  seen a  14 foot life time  at  dicks at 52 pounds  still a bit heavy but set up and  roomy  for  fishing  .....after talking to the  young man at dicks  he told me you can some how go on line  and see what is being delivered  to that store!  this can save you a trip ....i do not know how to do it but sure some of the people in here that are more  knowledgeable of the  computer  will......   i  did notice   some  bow hunting  stuff at  dicks

You could have called Jim.  I have a drop shot and other sinker molds in my garage.

I was using the non-lead ones in Maine due to it being law but they really suck for crimping on the split shot!
