Bass Pro or Cabelas?

Featured Replies

BPS and TW

The cranks I wanted were 50 cents cheaper @ BPS last week........Tungsten weights were 1$ to 1.50 cheaper @ at TW

Whichever has what I want at the price I want - which is rarely.  I did have a crappy CS experience with Cabela's the only time I used their CS, but it was for an online order.  I imagine in store would have been a better experience but there was no store near me at the time.

I will say Cabela's all the way, if I had to choose b/w the two.

1. Cabela's is much closer to me; 20 mins. vs. 1hr.50mins.

2. Cabela's prices seemed cheaper than BPS.

3. Cabela's great CS has won my vote.

:(

Bps for me there's not a cabelas here in Central Florida. I like Gander Mountain also they have a nice selection.

for sure bps for me, i live within walking distance of the headquarters in Springfield. (only for a few more months, then i am back in st louis to student teach :'()

Cabelas for me with both Cabelas(Hammond, IN) and BPS(Portage, IN) being within about 30 min. Cabelas customer service has won me over as well as the layaway program for Cabelas. Actually the only time I go to BPS is during the beginning of the season sale when they have the reel trade in and I'm purchasing a new reel.

I deal with Bass Pro (since ***), Cabelas, Gander Mountain, Tackle Warehouse and other unmentionables.

In an age of inflated shipping costs, "One-Stop" shopping has never been more important.

With respect to bass angling, the inventory at Bass Pro is far more comprehensive than the inventory at Cabelas.

Bass Pro gets the nod between those two, but my first tackle search is always Tackle Warehouse.

i have both within an hour of me but surprisingly i dont go to either. I go to the local guy that has built himself up. Rogers Sporting Goods. only got the one store now but still cheaper and better service than both BPS and Cabelas sombined.

I can't stand either, neither of them are close by, and ordering online takes FOREVER.

I order from Hooked Up Tackle, and if they don't have it, local shops.

Cabelas hands down.....we also dont have a BPS here  :-/

Cabelas. the shipping is faster and cheaper. Better pricing. Better discount options like the 5 dollar flat shipping or 20 dollars off 150 or more. Cabelas far surpasses Basspro
