Well it's all news to me.
I had never even heard of 'Mills Fleet Farm' before until they started getting these exclusives...I guess they're pretty huge out in the Heartland?

yeah, there pretty big, think of a sam club size of place thats just all outdoors, farm supplies, auto, and home repair. they (most of them) have an isle 20-25 ft long thats all rapalas, not all raps, but damn close. they advertise themselves as "The Mans Mall" its my favorite place.

Jeez Jeff, check your image size next time before you use it as an avatar...   I resized this one to 200 x 150...I also changed the avatar URL for you as well. That is awesome Rapala though... |

hey, once i got it up, i set it to 100 by 80, and it was huge, so i made it smaller, and it looked good on my screen, maybe it was you who fixed it. glad you like it, that the welcome sign i made to hang over my front door. but i should have put the hangers further apart, it would just about hang dead even on the front one alone, the back one is just there for show really.

I go to all of them, at least any of them that i see, its a manditory stop. mostly, however, i visit Stevens Point the most, point is the closest anything to us, only about 30 miles. Waupaca is small and doesnt have nearly as much as most of the other fleet farms. the new one in appleton is HUGE! dont know about the others but the one in Point still has SR 5 and 7 in SB, CLN, Chrome purple tiger, chrome red tiger and tennessee shad, and SR-7's in red tiger(MANNI)(thats for Mills fleet farm Annivsary), and lambeau field, thats on top of the MR's in CLN, TSD, also have seen them in Chart shinner and Blue shinner, not sure if those are everywere also or not.

They have almost all of them online, thankfully, minus the TSD ones. Hadn't seen the Chart Shiner or Blue Shiner yet - anyone have those or pics of them? |

hey, the one in point is good, but about like the other as far as rapala's go, but they do have a couple of the collecters filet knives knocked down from $100 to $60. trying to think, but its kinda slow for good picking anywere else around there, however the last time i was in iola the bait shop had some ristos still on the shelf, and 1st run taildancers. other then that, everything from there south and west ive pretty well covered. i know its sad, but im sure im not the only one here that can tell you what every bait shop in 50 miles has on its shelves.
