Was in twice this week visiting from out of state. Spent several hours talking to the owner about…read morefishing. He's very knowledgeable and an absolute gentleman. He advised me on the rod to purchase based on my fishing style and also advised me on different patterns of jigs he uses based on different conditions. This place is awesome for the crappie/panfish/catfish fisherman. Well stocked and quality gear which in this day and age is a tough find. It was awesome to hold the products in hand without the guess work that goes along with online shopping. Absolute great find for me as a fisherman!! This is not Cabelas! This is not Bass Pro! This is a fishing store owned by a man who loves to fish. What more could you want.

Tried to return a pair of sweatpants clearly listed on the receipt at $29.97. They offered me 8 dollars in store credit or the option to leave with the sweatpants. They said that the sweatpants were only ringing in as an $8.00 purchase when they scanned the barcode, even though clearly listed on the receipt at $29.97. Store manager treated me very poorly and wasn't trying to resolve the situation at all. i would not recommend shopping at this location.

This is where I come to get all my hunting apparel and equipment and it has never let me down. The staff always ask if you need help and it never seems to be busy so I am in and out in no time at all! Hope it stays there and wanted to let them know to keep up the good work. I'm impressed.

The staff was absolutely great and friendly, prices were absolutely a great deal and every part for pretty much everything you can imagine it in stock. Floor to ceiling selection of rifles and shotguns on three walls, a dealer for several high-end companies with actual inventory in stock, drive out absolutely worth the trip

They have ear and eye protection if you did not bring your own. You do not need to purchase ammo there but you can. The range is indoor. Several targets for sale. Auto target travelers in the range.

Do not use this store if you are buying your firearm from out of state. Let me tell you why…read more First they lied to me about the required 3 day waiting period. They claim that the period starts when they receive the firearm from the out of state seller. This is false. Per the law the waiting period begins from the date you purchased it. Second, they lied again when they told me that days that they aren't open don't count towards the 3 days the law doesn't state that in any way. Finally and worst of all, when I went to up my firearm they weren't even open when their website and their posted business hours said they were. I called them the next day and their excuse was they closed early for a banquet. I asked if they could stay open 15 minutes late so I could pick up my firearm since they closed early the day before without warning and they said no. That is terrible service on top of the lies. Save yourself time and money and go elsewhere there are other FFL's in the area that don't treat customers like this.

This bait and tackle shop is also a gas station, convenience store and has an attached restaurant…read more The good: bathroom was clean, bait and tackle selection was terrific- every supply you might need! Limited camping gear. Good selection of drinks and snacks. The not so great: the restaurant leaves some to be desired. My husband's meal was served refrigerator cold- a hamburger steak and fries. Both actually cold to the touch and the waitress copped an attitude because we sent it back- they recooked the burger and then brought it back to the table without the fries. Had to request those again. The other people in our party ordered the steak tips and they were very good. I ordered the rib eye steak medium rare- it came well done, and was so tough it wasn't chewable. I had a catfish filet that was fabulous, onion petals that were fabulous and the cheese ravioli were good. Service was great when we first ordered, but it was like our waitress went on break as soon as our food hit the table- we had to flag down someone else over the cold meal, and then no one came back. No drink refills, nothing until the check was dropped on the table. Price was good for the steak tips and catfish, other two items were overpriced for what we received. Would I go there to eat? I will not go out of my way again, but if I'd been on the lake all day and wanted a bite I would go back. Staff need to be trained in how to deal with a situation- no one got angry or snappy with them, but getting an attitude because there was a problem is not how to keep clientele.
