Default Big 5 on Mill Plain

I'm not a huge Big 5 fan, but a new one is going in on Mill Plain just West of Target and 164th. I'm definetely a Joes or Fishermen's guy as Big 5 usually carries a relatively small amount of fishing and hunting gear. But, they do carry some tackle, so in the event that Joes is out of something, it'll be nice to have a backup so near.

I saw that too, so I went to the big 5 in the mall to see what they had. I wasn't very impressed, but they did have a few things. Maybe they will expand the fishing section??

The only thing this store offers is shoes for cheap. The tackle selection is poor and it's way over priced. Bi-Mart is much better if you need to go to an alternate store.

Shoug - yup! I've found that Hi-School Pharmacy has better gear than Big 5.

The Big 5 in Bend attempted the old "bait and switch" with me; I haven't back.
