    Re: Gander Mtn. Evansville.... where??

    Didn't see one golf club, tennis racket, basketball, baseball or any other item related to any other sport other than hunting/fishing and camping.

    Good fishing selection with some good electronics. Much better than anything else in this area.

    Re: Gander Mtn. Evansville.... where??

    I have to agree with fishNnut and the other guys.

    This new Gander Mountain Store is fantastic and much better than any other sporting goods store in this area. The next best thing would be the new Buck & Jakes store in Boonville. I don't really like the way ****'s is setup. The workers at Dicks are always so busy trying to put stock on the shelfs while at the new Gander Mountain Store I had three people asking me if I needed any help or if so they would be glad to help me find something.

    This store is packed full of fishing gear and hunting gear. Guns and more guns. Bow and arrows and even an indoor bow and arrow shooting range.

    I found the gunsmith shop ready to serve me. I am going to be sending one of my rifles to them to get a new safer trigger installed. Remington has a recall on my old rifle and will pay for the repairs. So I'll be getting a new trigger for my rifle very soon. The guys at Gander Mountain have already order the trigger from Remington and it will be on it's way to the Evansville Store.

    They even have some nice Bass Tracker Boats on display at this store. A 175 Crappie Tracker and a 175 TX were on display.

    If you are into trapping they have lots of trapping supplies. And if you are a reloader you will love this store. They have all types of lead shot, rifle and pistol bullets, primers, gun powder and reloading equipment for rifles and shot guns.

    And they will carry live bait from the Evansville Worm Ranch in the coming days. So if you need minnows, worms, bee moths or crickets you can most likely find them at Gander Mountain's new store in the coming days. It's not ready now but it only takes a few hours for the Evansville Worm Ranch guys to ship the minnows to the new store.

    Need some Crappie nibbles? Gander Mountain new store has not only the regular crappie nibbles but they also have the larger jars of the Neon Glow type nibble and even the new sparkle type nibbles

    I picked up some of the new Yum Wooly Beavertail baits that Todd Huckabee is always talks about in the Crappie World magazine articles. BTW Todd is a very successful crappie guide and tournament fisherman from Oklahoma who finds slabs all year long.

    I have been looking for some of those Wooly Beavertail baits and could not find them anywhere in town.

    You need to buy some Sea Foam? Gander mountain has these in stock too.

    Need a kayak or a canoe? You have a good selection to choose from at GM's new store.

    I could go on and on about this store but you would be better served to go see it for yourselves.

    It's not as big as the Bass Pro Shop store near Louisville, KY but it's a nice store.

    I could not find my Drift Master Rod Holders that I was expecting to find nor could I find any Tite Loc rod holders either.

    But I did get to see and play with the new Humminbird 997 Side Scanning/sonar unit and they also had the 797 Side Scanning unit on the display. I was surprised that to see the size of the 997 was much smaller than I imagined it would be. I can see why Humminbird is coming out with a new unit like the 997 only with a much larger screen size. This new unit is coming out soon. It will cost a few more hundred dollars to get the larger screen model. But it will be worth if if you all like the bigger screens.
