[font "Courier New"][#000080][size 3]I've heard good things about Cabelas, but they're a bit out of my budget - both for merchandise and gas to get down there. Usually I go to Wal-Mart or Sportsman's Warehouse. Keep in mind, though, that I'm not serious into fishing. I do it for a side hobby for fun, and so I don't mind if I get cheap "junk" for equipment. I sometimes don't tie my knots right and lose lures anyway...might as well not pay too much for them! 
The only thing I've bought at Cabelas is wool "glomits" (gloves with fingers chopped off, but a mitten 'flap' to cover them). When I first got them, I only bought them because they were the cheapest ($15/pair) PURE wool gloves ANYWHERE on the internet. Of course, they only had man's size, so I just got "small" (which is still too big for me).
Of course, then they started mailing me their catalog, and while browsing it for no good reason, saw that they had WOMEN size gloves! So I bought 2 pair, just in case...figured if I wore out one pair, I'd have a back-up. Then my sister wanted some, since I keep saying how WONDERFUL they are (and they are!). Then I couldn't find women's size again... so I just gave her my small-man ones, and still have my 2 women sizes.
One pair I use for fishing in the cold (so they can get dirty and I won't care), and the other pair I use for "every day" type stuff.
