Get into any Bass Pro store. They have a heap of cool stuff. The Las Vegas store is HUGE and is also connected to a casino and has a indoor 'stream' with Trout in it you can feed.

You will find once over there most the high end reels work out to being only slightly cheaper than buying in Oz. Though there are a fair few reel brands we dont get here in Oz, plus some reel models we dont get here in Oz of brands we do get here, Daiwa, Shimano etc. But terminal tackle, lures, SPs, are cheap as!!!!

Mate if you can get to a Cabelas store do it. Not sure if there is one in the city`s you are heading to but a quick internet search should give you a location. Might not be the cheapest around but for the sheer size and variety it just blows your mind. The one I went to had an indoor mountain with stacks of stuffed American animals and elephants and Rhino`s, Giraffes etc upstairs. I stocked up pretty big on braid and lures but as mentioned before the quality reels are only slightly cheaper.
