Testimonials

On 11/15/2025 Philip Sales had this to say:
Always good talking with the guys in there and they always have what ya need!

On 10/19/2025 Summer had this to say:
I went in here with my 2 teenage boys. Jack was an amazing help. He took the time to go into great detail about best lures (both for Ridenger Lake and what they typically fish back in Ohio). He was so patient with their questions and was extremely knowledgeable. We were so glad we stopped in. It made our rainy day at the lake much better. He even encouraged them to bring in a picture for their picture wall when they catch the big ones! Testimonial written by Summer on this site.
