#Cabelas / #bassproshops is a store I enjoy a lot and fills a retail niche for #outdoors people that is hard to find - boaters, #icefishing, #camping, #hunting, etc.

It is also, despite appearances, 100% an American company. You may need to split your shopping to multiple retailers to replace them, but I was able to do it. There are many, many Canadian outfitters, large and small, in every province. #buycanadian

Firearms and fishing lures and 1960's racism in lure naming.

Here are some pages from the 1966 Herter's catalog. Herter's was a mail order only equivalent of Bass Pro Shops. In fact in 1981 the remnants were bought by Cabela's and is in some small part in the Bass Pro Shops family. For people interested in converting, a 1966 dollar is $9.20 in current dollars.
