Once I picked it out I started to do a little window shopping, the woman at the counter saw me and apologized for not greeting me when I walked in.... In a world where give you vacant, here was a sincere apology for not welcoming me. I could have bought it online for $45 (plus shipping). I paid $50 and had it. In the last 10 years there are new owners, and definitely the same great service and possibly better prices. If you shop enough you could find things cheaper -- somewhere --- but you won't match the service. One of the things I like the best about Blue Line (no one says 'Sports Shop') is that for a small store, family owned, they usually give you a couple choice --- high end and cheaper May 2013: Have to revisit this, went in expecting to by a 2/3 wt fly reel. I had talked to (learned later) the owner on the phone and he implied there was a reel in the store. There wasn't. I asked the gentleman for a spool price, to order, and he said only the owner was allowed to give that out.... not the best way to do service

    Hidden gem in the heart of lake placid! We decided to take a break from hiking the high peaks with…read moreour 9 and 12yo kids and rented a boat. FYI, they only accept cash or checks. I was a bit apprehensive since we are boating novices, having only used a motorized boat once before. Turns out we had nothing to worry about. We were given a pristine, spacious pontoon (called the Bentley, if that tells you anything :), and the operator gave us crystal clear directions on how to use it. The person helping us also gave us a map of lake placid and pointed out good areas to stop for swimming and fishing. My kids had the time of their lives on the water. The operator was kind enough to suggest bringing one of their floating tubes and a fish net, all for no extra charge. I thought we would only be on the water for 2hrs at most, but we ended up being out for more than 3. The kids said they could have stayed out on the lake all day. We did not catch any fish but we all enjoyed the beautiful view in our clean, spacious pontoon. Given our inexperience, this excursion could have easily gone south, however Captain Marneys clearly cares about its patrons and goes the extra mile to make sure everything goes well. We will be back!
