Local shops first. TW if I can’t find it locally (which is extremely rare).
Local first then LBF, Omnia, Discount tackle or direct from manufacture. There are a few other from time to time but this is my main route. If I added TW it would be secound behind local. We have very good local shops.

Two wrongs don't make a right , but three lefts do.
Local bass pro. It’s an “outpost” store so the whole store is smaller than a normal bass pro fishing department. Otherwise it’s Walmart

LBF, ebay, BBC boards
I am lucky I have a Huge Sponsorship with Bass Pro and Mastercard.. I have there credit card that I use for everything we buy. They give me reward points. I pay the bill off every month so I don't pay interest. Then I use the points to buy tackle. Just got an order for tackle I will use in Florida this winter with points. Plus got the free shipping since it was over 50.00. The life of a Pro is a good thing.
Now if I could only figure out a way for them to pay off the bill every month instead of me that would be great.
LBF, Midway, BassTeam Tackle and few others sometimes will go by BPS but usually don't have what I want when I go...lol local Walmart is a joke and Dick's also went downhill but mostly on line now....

Used to Academy, BPS, and locals in the area. Academy doesn't carry what it once did. Very low stock, they don't carry or are out most of the time. Have 2 Academy locally, same at both. Lot of people say the same thing. My brother in Beaumont says theirs is stock good as ever. Locally has been like this for 3 or 4 years. Area buyers for them I suppose. I still go there trying but end leaving for somewhere else.

Just about anywhere other than tackle warehouse.
I wish we had better local options around here. There is one decent shop in the area that I hit from time to time. I use Bass Pro and Tackle Warehouse a good deal, but I learned about Barlows, and LBF through this site. Both are also pretty good retailers.
I don’t buy a lot of tackle, so I tend to buy locally at Fisherman’s Central or Fin, Feather, and Fur. When I buy from others, it’s usually Barlow’s or Jann’s.

Drugco Roanoke Rapids NC better than BPS if you are in the area check them out. On line, Susquehanna Fishing Tackle or TW.

Everywhere, Who ever has the best price online or I do try to support the local guy when I can.
No good local shops here, and I'll walk out empty-handed from BPS more often than not. TW, Discount, American Legacy get a good share of my paychecks.
Local shop just closed, they were my go to place.
Tackle trap was another place I liked, but also closed.
Do have a tackle shop about 40 minutes away that will get some business this year.
