Bass Pro Shops Toronto
A few weeks ago, I was on yet another business trip to the big boring city when I forced my friend Chris Vickerson, his wife Betty and his 2 kids to drive me to Vaughan (just on the outskirts of town) for my initiation to the Bass Pro Shops experience.
My first impression was that it reminded me a lot of another huge outdoors theme store called Gander Mountain. I visited Gander Mountain in Plattsburgh NY last year, spent at least 4 hours in there with my buddy Terry Phillips. It was a great experience.
In any case, I spent approximately 3 hours in Bass Pro Shops. I bought about 10 Rapala Shad Raps on special (I think they were $3.29 each!), a ton of crawler harnesses (they were almost giving them away) a pile of clear plastic tackle organizers, and a big boat bag to store my tackle.
Of course, 3 hours were not nearly enough to go through everything, but it was closing time and my friends looked a little bored (!), so we made our way out of the store.
I'll be back.

Hey Marc!
You must be getting pretty anxious about now. I can't wait to go troll some shallow diving raps around. It's the easiest time of the year to catch walleye on St-Francis.
By the way, other than Le Baron and Baron sports, which both kind of suck in my opinion, do you know of any other good fishing stores around here? I'd love to check out that place in TO but it's a little far.
Good luck and tight lines,
Jigger
Hey Andre
Baron Sports on Taschereau has some good staff and decent selection - there are rumors of a cabelas opening up near St Jerome like next spring.
