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.

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 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. 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
