I think Katy is in a very different situation, the Katy area is much larger than Lake Charles (within 8-10 miles of the beltway and energy corridor) and the per household income is much higher plus it is/was pulling from a much larger city. Katy was a no brainer for Bass Pro as it got them in the Houston market. I would love for you guys to be right, hopefully you are.
It would be a stretch but its also 2 1/2hrs in any direction to a BPS so it would draw from a decent area although I still think Gander Mountain would stand a better chance. I don't know about anyone else in the Lake area but if the Iowa Mall can stay open anything can survive this area.
