BPS?

i heard tale that a bass pro shops was going to open in washington soon, but the supposed location is only five minutes away from my house and i see no work being done on it, i thought it was supposed to be up and running in the summer?

I heard they were taking bids on the electrical, the opening is supposedly on track.

i cant wait!! hope it doesnt hurt the other fishing stores too much though, but ive always wanted to try some BPS products and see what theyre all about, plus since theyre coming to the northwest, i wonder if theyll release thier own brand of salmon gear, since its the predominant sportfish here,

Seems to be a few stories out there, hard to know what's fact or fiction. One story was the setup was being delayed up to 3 years but again, this has not been confirmed. I was out there about a week ago and only saw a vacant building, if they plan on opening this summer, they'll need to get moving ASAP. If your looking for bass gear be sure to checkout Limit Out Marine.

BPS web site in September said they are planning a Fall 2014 opening:

Soon we pay sales tax on them, too? I was ambivalent about Cabela's coming here. Oh well,, maybe no shipping.

If the company has a base here they will HAVE to charge tax.

yup, sales tax on internet purchases is coming for more and more things.

BPS have great stores. I've been to at least a half dozen in our vacation travels. It's a vacation ritual that my wife is very tolerant of.
