BPS is owned by Johnnie Morris. He is a local Springfield boy who I went to school with. He started with a bait station as a kid, added rods and reels the next year and now the Mother of all BPS's is here in Springfield. Johnnie is a true visionary and usually gets things spot on but not in a hurry. Of course there are some folks who don't necessarily like his visions and others who are very jealous of his sucesses. I think there's a very good chance that this will be good for Cabelas and that changes you see will be for the better. But the jury is still out.
