I normally go to another shop when I come into town but I called here before I flew down from Minnesota and they were so helpful that I chose their shop to be my new fishing base. They were so kind and helped me with everything that I needed. So much so, that I came back for the next 8 days and bought live bait, fishing equipment, had them spool line on 4 fishing poles, rig all of those poles with leads, weights, hooks, etc. and map out great spots to fish. I can't say enough great things about this place. Thanks again!

A week after ordering I call to see if the item shipped, "it's back ordered" "sitting in my office" "I'll ship it right away". It's going to cost double the amount to ship than u paid already. I believe every last bad review after hearing how this person handles herself on the phone. Need to work on their professionalism. Maybe a staff training would help. My advice- Order elsewhere.

I needed my product for an upcoming trip. I placed my order on 6/17/2026 and received an email…read moreconfirmation for the order #ORD01178 and a separate payment conformation minutes later (Charges processed at my bank the next day). I received a call today 6/19/2026 from a ERO representative who advised that the shipping was higher than what was calculated at check-out (it more than doubled) and they couldn't ship my order unless I wanted to pay the additional shipping charges. I declined and she then tried to switch me to another product. I assume they are not aware that Under Florida law, once your payment is processed and an order confirmation is sent, a legally binding contract is formed. The company cannot unilaterally change the price of the shipping or hold my order hostage. If they fail to honor the original agreed-upon price, they are in breach of contract. This is exactly what they did here. My next step is reporting them to Florida regulators for their poor business practices. This mistake was not my doing! ERO should have done the right thing here.

Captain Jim even took our fish home, cleaned and vacuum packed them, so we could bring them back up north.

We checked in at the Ding Darling visitor center. The friendly attendant at the counter informed us the guide/driver is ready for us and to meet her at the tram. We were also given binoculars that were free to borrow with a credit card on hold (we would get charged if we lose them). We boarded the tram about 15 minutes before the tour. The whole tram was full, and every seat was taken, including the front seat in the truck pulling the tram. Kathy, our guide/driver introduced us to the tour and informed potential animals we would see. We were all informed to let her know if we see any potential animals so she can slow down the tram when needed. When we went to the park, we saw various animals including many types of birds, fishes, manatees, and even iguanas. The whole tour lasted about 90 minutes, with a small 10 break to walk and view the observation tower. Kathy did an excellent job explaining about the park, the types of plants and animals, and how the park was affected by the hurricane and other things. She also answered any questions that the guests had. She drove very safely, being cautious of the other vehicles and pedestrians at the park. We were also informed that we could walk around the park after the tour. However, we decided it was too hot to walk a couple miles and left after the tour. The visitor center looked to be undergoing renovations, but the gift shop was open. We bought a shirt that was on sale. The bathrooms were clean and even had information about the various animals we could see. We were also given a brochure as well before the tour. For the price paid, this was a great value. We did get to see various types of animals, plants, and birds. Our guide/driver was friendly, informative, and cautious. Even though the hurricane did some damage to the park, the repairs looked nice and great to see the various wildlife coming back to the park. This was a wonderful tour and a must do when visiting Sanibel Island.

We picked up some bait, a bucket, and a few other essentials, and everything worked perfectly. The bait was incredible--we ended up catching some absolute monsters! The quality of their gear is top-notch, even something as simple as their buckets is durable and reliable. What really stood out, though, was the staff. Everyone was super kind, welcoming, and genuinely happy to help. They took the time to answer our questions and made sure we had everything we needed. Great people, great service, and a great store. We'll definitely be coming back before every fishing trip! Highly recommend!
