Be prepared to stand in line for a very long time.

Report just in via cell phone and passerby......"Damn, the line is 200 yards long.""I'll come back tomorrow." "That is nuts."

That's pretty much the conversation.

No, it's a liquidation sale......will take weeks to empty out what was the Farris Brother's Warehouse.....Picture a Hudson's Sale with NOTHING but outdoor equipment.

Anybody know what time it closes/Opens?

My Husband leaves next Friday for his yearly hunting trip to Illinois and I told him about this. He has everything he needs but could use some new binoculars. How was the stock of those...OH I am sure he could use some more stuff though.t

i'm not really sure but i did see a little room to the far far right near the front wall behind the registers that looked like they had stacks of scopes.

I don't know if there were binoculars or not..

I spent $120 Tuesday evening, and I did not even make it to the hunting stuff. Lots of saltwater supplies, and the prices were reasonable. I loaded up on basics like popping corks and DOA shrimp. I spent more than 2 hours in there, and didn't see it all! I am heading back Friday with some more money, and I'm looking to update some of my rods and reels. :clap:

Challenger Marshmasters are reasonably priced and just the right stick for your type of fishing!
