1) Brown, Steelhead, Sauger, Walleye
2) Smallmouth, Brookie, Tiger, Northern Pike
3) Coho, Redhorse, Creek Chub, Mooneye

I’m sure I got some wrong, so I’ll have to do my homework now.

Small shops can make, they just have to adjust to what the customer is looking for. Pricing, selection, and customer service are important to the customers of these small shops. Offer something unique and customers will have a reason to keep coming back. Shops like Thorne Bros.,Capras, Reeds were all small at one point as well and they figured out the things that were important to customers and they are doing well today.
Amazon is great to buy on because of the mixture of price and selection, but I’ll take places like Scheels and Thorne Bros. any day because of the service they provide and their prices and selection are great as well!
