What kind of info you looking for?

I think they are supposed to open by the end of the month.

Its the 3 curse tackle store....LC has had a few open and close over last few years

Hard to compete with Academy prices and LCT loyalty of its customers

Wish them luck but history is not in there favor

Good luck to them. Never know might be a hit since LCT is under new management and owner. Not nearly the same atmosphere as the old store.

It's the lady that was running lake Charles tackle before the switch. I work with her husband. They are trying to open next thursday. They will also have hunting supplies.

I agree with hard to compete with academy and luck not being in favor (ive seen the two come and go on gulf hwy), but loyalty from LCT is unheard of on my part. I used to go there at least once a week and pick up tackle and each time it was the same ol lazy *** attitude (maybe its because I'm not a guide???). How in the hell does LCT run out of glow/chart tail sandeels in the middle of summer? I tried for a month to pick up some wedgetails and one week it was " we will have a new shipment next week" the next week it was "oh just a few more days", the week after its "not sure" and the next week its "well they are doing so well with the vudu shrimp maybe you should try those". I shop local when possible to support local but when I'm paying 20% more for a product I do expect to be treated with better service and also be spoken to straightforward. Tell me you didn't order any so I can go online and have them shipped to my house by the end of the week. I'll still go in to buy YMB jigheads and other tackle that I may not be able to pick up at the chain stores, but for the other stuff I have no problem stocking up elsewhere. You would think that a business that has been around with loyal customers would keep plenty of product in stock.

(been shopping at LCT for 10-15yrs, old location is 2 minute walk from my house)

Somehow I didn't know they switched up...this explains a lot.

Cajun tackle is in better location IMO

I go to LCT only "ONLY" when Academy does not have it!!

There prices are just way to high for me !


I would like to see a tackle shop compete with Academy on prices but I know its hard

And they will have parking!

Top Dawg 08-21-2013 08:25 PM

It's tough to compete with big business. But I will try to support local business even if its a bit higher.

I saw it today and was wondering! This answered my question

meaux fishing 08-21-2013 08:48 PM

They will get my business when I'm in LC. Academy never has what I want anyway

AubreyLaHaye458 08-21-2013 09:13 PM

Big Kahunaz 08-21-2013 09:19 PM
