Great Floats

We had a great time fishing with Jim Bob and Wes. The Maddison was beautiful and these guys were great pointing out wildlife and landmarks. They worked extremely hard putting us on fish and put up with our banter. They changed up things several times and never complained about losing flies...even streamers. Riley at the shop was great and very professional. Would recommend The Tackle Shop to anyone.

How did I never go here before?

I’ll be honest, I’m not a fly shop guy. Most shops make me feel uncomfortable or pressured. Maybe it’s because before shop guys get to know me a bit they give advice that isn’t quite my fishing style. I’m sure it’s me, but there’s two shops that I’ve come to love going to and one is the tackle shop. I’ve been fishing the ennis area for about 10 years now and never really went into the tackle shop until recently. Before giving me advice, Riley took the time to understand how I like to fish to tailor advice for me that would be productive but also enjoyable for me. There’s no gate keeping, no secrets, no pretension or arrogance. I can’t express the relief to have a shop on both ends of the Madison now. 10/10 would recommend
