Looks like gander is closing. Things are looking good for bass Pro shops

Triton 19 XS Elite, 225 Mercury Pro XS, Minn Kota Ultrex 112, Hydrowave H2, Twin 8' Power Pole Blades, Power Pole CHARGE, Lowrance HDS 12 and 16 at console, Lowrance HDS 9, Garmin LiveScope at bow, Mercmonitor, Rigid Industries Deck lights and other stuff to come that will make me go more broke
Not a gander fan, sooner they die off the better......
Never enjoyed going to Gander. Seems like they always sold the fishing department short, had alot more hunting and camping items.
Not the first time they have declared bankruptcy...

I helped open the one in Evansville, the fishing department was pretty good when it first opened. Definitely not that way anymore.Originally Posted by Champ891
I've bought a ton from the two stores near me closing. One of them closed to move to a brand new building. We will see if it's a "reorganizing" bankruptcy or if they are just going to close completely. IMHO, they had a better selection of bass gear than Bass Pro in CO.

Hope they have a liquidation sale in the fishing department
Not really. BPS purchase of Cabela's on the ropes big time.
I got a 20% off regular priced items GM coupon in the mail. I bought a bunch of stuff today with that discount. They had their fishing racks all stocked up and ready to go for spring.
GM always had a decent selection of stuff I use. They did offer sales occasionally. But I usually bought things that I needed a pack or two at a time. Everytime I put a Tackle Warehouse order in I would buy way too much stuff. So Gander filled that niche when I needed just Yum Dingers, Sunkist, Flukes, hooks, etc.
They are an American company employing Americans. Don't know why all the negative comments on them.

I like going to their store, granted I don't buy much there; but they do carry some stuff that Bass Pro and academy don't carry.
yup, the market isn't a fan of this M&A and Cabela's stock is taking a dump

The one near me leaves a lot to be desired. Won't miss it.
LET'S GO BLUES!!! WILL WE MAKE THE PLAYOFFS IN 2024?
Gander Mountain is the only decent all around sporting goods store within an hour of me, that I am aware of. I hate to see them close!!
To report any post you disagree with press Alt + F4.
Competition is good, Not a fan, there prices are higher on guns. They will match others prices though!!
I thought gander filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy which means they aren't closing and gives them more time to pay debt off and figure out a financial plan?
So when's the sales start?
If you go to their website it says they are reorganizing. Gander has hired a firm to help with this,doesn't say anything about closing stores
They tried reorganizing with the gun shop change a couple years ago.
I don't know if they're closing stores or not but less competition is never good for the consumer..If it gets down to just a couple of big box stores be ready for higher prices and lower quality..
Yep just like WM.
