Ive noticed mine restocking the shelves lately.  One thing that kills me with the local DSG is they only seem to carry Zoom soft plastics with salt.  No unsalted Zooms .

You can ask the fishing department to order in unsalted for you. I'm sure they'd be more than willing to do it.

I went today and they had clearance bins, got power pro for $10, shadraps for $4, they had some good deals...

Wish I had the same luck as you guys with DSG. I guess I have Obama to thank for fishing not being ethical or politically correct anymore. They just put in a new DSG by me and they don't even have a fishing section. The other one by me has about 2 aisles SMH. I took about a 45 min drive to the DSG with the biggest fishing section around me and was disappointed they had everything I wanted except none in the right color

I never thought of that.  But then again I'd probably just order it online instead of asking them to do it. 

My DSG told me they cant order anything special,everything they get in is ordered by some guy sitting in an ivory tower. Dude probably has never held a rod in his hand. Sad sad sad. Heck,when I got my st croix's, the morning I went in there they didnt even know they were on sale. I asked the manager if they were on sale for 39 bucks because they were on the east coast. He about laughed his ass off,so I ask him to scan one....presto 39 bucks. He about fell down. LOL

I bet they'll be out of business in the next 10 years anyways. Maybe sooner.

All these Croix deals are making me quite envious. Ill have to stop by mine more often i guess.

I didn't think other people noticed that either. the ratio of salted to unsalted zoom products is like 9:1 and we have about 3/4 of an aisle dedicated to zoom..

The Croix deal was last year about this time.

Exactly!  I love that they carry Zoom, and otherwise it seems like they have a good variety.

The Dicks Spoting Goods around me changed the sale idea. They sent a flyer with a coupon that said take an extra 50% off storewide clearance ending in .93 and .97, but on back said shimano, St. Croix, G. Loomis and some other brands excluded.

I went to my DSG. Man have they reduced their selection. Didnt find any good rod deals. Ended up using a gift card for some Rage Tail and Missle baits for super cheap.

JMO-i doubt that they will be out of business but they will not be selling fishing and hunting equipment--my store is heading there real fast--smaller and smaller hunting and fishing sections--bigger golf and clothing sections--JMO
