Oh yeah, I understand that. You have your opinion and I respect that. Maybe it is a little buddy buddy in there but that's just how some things go. Eelboy, I forget his name, I know who you mean though. About 6' tall, young guy, looks like he just got out of highschool, smokes, his hair tips may be bleached. I'm not crazy about him. He's pretty new there. I really wish I could remember his name. He's a nice guy though and I don't think they intended on ripping you on the eels. I've gotten decent eels from him before.
One day, we will have a fishing outing down at Penfield and maybe I can introduce you to Kevin at a time that isn't so crazy.
I consider that my home shop. I only visit three or four other shops in the area but not at the same frequency that I go to Teds. The other shops you should check out is John Posh's shop at Stratford B&T, Ricky Mola's Fisherman's World (East Norwalk). The other shop I visit is the concession stand in the marina. It's not a REAL shop but it's good to drop by, shoot the bull with the guys and pick up little things I need.
I'm really sorry you've had such an awful experience at Teds. He really is a good guy and he tries hard. It's just like paddling upstream. There are a lot of shops around, plus Sports Authority and now there is a hardware store selling fishing stuff. It's a huge mess. This area is only big enough for a few shops and they are trying to jam a lot in.
Someday it'll get better.
