Sad. They're prices recently always seemed to be higher than the other two.

 

As a kid Dad would let us three boys pick out a certain amount of fishing gear from the catalog for spring each year.

 

Recently only bought stuff when nearby a store.

It is sad, but not shocking.   Gander Mountain used to be great, but I feel over the last decade the quality decreased a bit and the place started taking on an almost late-days KMART feel. 

 

I used to LOVE going in there and handling the used guns like you can at Cabela's, but they they changed their policy to all guns (even used) being behind the counter, and that cut my trips to Gander Mountain down immensely, as it was the #1 thing that got me in the door.

Them and Netcraft were my tackle stores  back when. My last visit to a Gander Mountain (Cicero, NY) had me asking why I stopped in.  Not that it was not well stocked, but it was all pretty much the same as anyone else with the junk being the "bargains".

bummer, when I was a young feller I used to order stuff from their mail order catalog, I never heard of Cabelas until years later

 

Cabelas bought their catalog division years ago. That's when they stopped selling by catalog
