I explained that I was a complete newbie, that I had a 5w rod/reel combo and that I was fishing a small pond generally. I asked him to select some flies for me based on the information that I gave him since I didn't know the first thing about selecting flies. He gave me six flies, a box and recommend some extra line. I bought it all at a cost of well over $100. The next day I was told by an experienced fly fisherman that the flies I bought were much to big for my size line. I had no idea. So I wrote to Harry's and explained that I was given the wrong size flies. No one answered my email. Today I went back to Harry's to return the products that I had purchased a few days earlier. (I live over an hour from the store) I asked the same salesperson for a refund. He refused, stating that "It would be too hard to look up." Bottom line, even though I gave the salesperson exactly the information necessary, I was offered and bought over $100 in supplies that I can not possibly use. When I told this to the salesperson today, he just shrugged his shoulders. There is no doubt that I was taken advantage of because I am new to the sport of fly fishing. Vendors like these are predators and should be called out when they do things like this that hurt hard working people who don't have money to throw away. BTW: I am a veteran of the USAF.

Grab your hearing protection and stop. These fan boat's are so cool. They go fast! The guy even took us on a mud flat to show off a bird nest with eggs. Soon he will be showing everyone baby birds. We got to see all the alligators in their natural homes. Definitely worth doing once, in a lifetime. Food: I remember when there wasn't much for food options.

They were genuinely friendly, helpful, and made me feel like they actually cared about making sure I was taken care of. I had an issue with an item I purchased, and it did take them a couple of days to resolve (but they travel the gun show circuit year-round, so I did not hold that against them). It's getting harder to find businesses where people take the time to answer your questions and treat you like a person instead of just another customer, but that was definitely my experience here. Everyone I dealt with was courteous, patient, and easy to work with. I really appreciate the way they handled everything, and I wouldn't hesitate to do business with them again. If you're in the Palm Bay area or purchasing from them at a gun show, I highly recommend giving Beavers Dam Warehouse a try. Great people and excellent customer support!

The product I was sold was defective and david gave it to me with a torn box the day of the purchase at the show. During the day of the purchase, I returned to your stand four times, and each time I was given a different excuse rather than a working product. The rifle has never functioned properly. After returning the unit to you several weeks ago, I had difficulty reaching you, often being told you were traveling. Now that we have finally spoken, you are refusing to issue a refund. Because the product is faulty and the item was not in the condition promised, I no longer trust the equipment or your business services. Please process a refund for the full purchase amount immediately. I look forward to your prompt response and confirmation that this has been resolved.

I have been coming here since 1978 to get all my offshore and local river and beach tackle. The prices are among the best with great service and knowledgeable advice on what is biting around the area. They carry all your tackle and bait and if they do not have it they will get it for you. From shirts, rods, brand name lures, cast nets all the way down to split shot weights they have it all. I would recommend this Bait and tackle store to any fisherman that wants to know where and how its done to produce nice catches. TIGHT LINES!!! read more
