The Acadamy in Joplin started out kinda lean on fishing stuff, but now is fully stocked. They are lacking on spoon selection and upper end tackle,( they do carry luck craft) but for the most part its thumbs up. When I asked about getting certain things in, they said that coperate office dictates what they get and dont get. When they clearance stuff they dont mess around bought some spooks in there last year for $2.99. $80. insulated coveralls for $18. Falkon and all star rods seem to be the top of the line for them , but the do carry the higher dollar Shimono reels. For a large dept store its pretty good. Walmart fishing dept has nothing since they have come to town . I still prefer Mom and Pops, but not that many anymore.
