Thats a bummer!
just not bringing in the revenue or is there another reason?
Good baitshops seem to be vanishing.

Sorry to hear this, I hate to see a local business close. Thoughts and prayers to the Walkers.

Never been there but hate to hear it's closing. Do you all sell anything online? I'm in Knoxville but would definitely buy some stuff if I could order through PayPal and have it shipped to me.

I stopped in there today. Talked with the owner she is definitely bummed out that she had to close, she really enjoyed having the business. Bought several things but still sad they have to close.

Walker's. Was like a family to me. Not Just a great place place to shop but also a great place to hang out with great friends. I'm really going to miss it.
