The goose use to be a good store. They do stock diversified equipment, but the sales people this year have a bad attitude and are very cocky. Look at the self proclaimed Oracle of Orleans! What an asshole... Also the gooses hours of operation suck. They don't open early and they don't stay open late - the most productive striper fishing times. If your going to use the goose you need to buy your bait the day before which means it will not be fresh when you go to use it. If your not hard core I guess their hours of operation are fine.
The hardcore people in the eastahm/orleans area are using blackbeards. The sales people are curtious, prices are low and they are open at 6 am during the summer.
