I really like the Scheels brand fishing rods. Plus if you break one it's a no questions asked return for a new one. At least it used to be. I thought I heard you might have to pay half now. Yep all their store brand gear is like that. Their rods really are good rods too.

Scheels is hands down the best sporting good retailer in the US.
Great inventory, great employees, and most of the Scheels branded fishing gear is top notch.

I work at Scheels here in Colorado in the gun department. I came down with covid and then found that my back had been broken when I was an officer, but my back muscles had taken over. After Covid those muscles attrified and I was a hurtin unit. I followed that up with Covid a 2nd time which had me on oxygen for 4 months, they supported me during the whole time. Going on a year and a half now of dealing with this crap. They let me work when I could and kept me employed. I did have to take a demotion as I couldn't keep up with my supervisor duties. They are unabashed conservative, faith based folks and if you work hard for them, they work hard for you. They give back 10% of their profits to the local community and help out youth groups in area such Colorado Youth Outdoors. Working for them has been the best move in years. I wish you the very best I am glad they are treating you well Hank

In todays age that is inspiring to hear. I may have to go buy some stuff from them today! Might even take the wife.

I’ve only dealt with them once and that was on-line….only freaking store in the nation that had 1/6oz frog (green) Rooster Tails. I bought the 4 they had in inventory. Still browse their emails here and there.

Nothing like trying to look at pistols through mesh, but there’s always the Ferris wheel for getting your mind off soccer balls.
I was thinking the other day how much I used to hate Bill Clinton. He was freaking George Washington compared to what they are now.

Last time I was in Scheels it was a pain in the ass. Every 2 minutes an employee was asking if they could help me find something.
Scheels actually reminds me of what Cabela's used to be years ago. Now I drive past Cabela's to get to Scheels.

That’s because Scheels didn’t rise above the rest, they were a boringly medium to good store and all the better ones disintegrated. Followers like you will continue to follow and miss what really happened.

Yep all their store brand gear is like that. Their rods really are good rods too. Have a couple of their walleye rods great rods for the money. Did not know about the lifetime warrantee They have outstanding customer service and good prices and selection. Blow away Cabela's as bass pro

I may be wrong and you have every right to your opinion but what you are describing in this post sounds more like Dick's, Sportsman's Warehouse or Cabela's than Scheels.

Scheels has a great selection unless your in one of there older stores in BFE. They also have the cheapest prices anywhere unless your too stupid to figure it out. Here's a pretty small sample from the last six weeks. The MEC press was marked down to $129.00 at the store in Lincoln. The 5,500 pack of Hornady's was marked down to $449.99 The brass was retail but not out of line and the shotgun shells were the cheapest I had seen in about eight states.
I'm here to increase my social credit score and rub elbows with some of the highest rollers on the internet.
