franklin- That's a start but if you are over 45 yrs old it will probably fail as you will be labeled as someone who is "trying too hard".
You must look young and you need to cultivate a casual, rumpled look....unshaven and possibly walk around the shop in weird slippers or bare feet...(You also need an appropriate soundtrack. this should be some generic space music or "bluegrassy" type thing or even the Grateful Dead will do). This signifies your authenticity...THEN you can schmooze your way to a multi thousand dollar sale of some fishing gear that is worth a tiny fraction of that.
