[THE_ROE_SLINGER]

I know last year there there was that big cuffufle about fishing stores and people were saying babcocks is bad and everything but im not saying this to start something. Babcocks is a good store but i would have to say Jaymers is the best. They have the nicest staff and always the best prices. Last week i bought a bran new fly rod there and man did they ever have some nice reels and rods. The talked to me about every rod and reel and about what rod and reel is the best. THE BEST ONE IS NOT NECESSARY the most expensive one. He gave me close to 75 dollars off of it. My rod came with a life time warrenty which is normally 220$ but gAVE it o me for 190$ and my reel was normally 120$ but gave it too me for 100$ and i bought floating line that is normally 60$ but gave it too me for 40$ and i bought a rod and reel case that was normally 30$ and gave it too me for 10$. I was like wow thank you. Also he told me all about the pitt and how good it was for bow trout and when i go there to bring him back a pic so he could post it up on the wall. Also if you pay like 300$ for a sage rod u are basicly paying for the name and the rod i got for 100$ less is the same is it or even better.Because the guy that tests the sage rods after there finished making a new model tests the same rod that i bought and he gave the review better. If you buy something go TO JAYMERS.

Hi FISHER, thank's for the tip. I myself live in Langley and so I deal with the local shops here, some good, some not so. But Gill's Tackle is the store I do most of my shopping in. they have always been very polite and
super, super helpful. Yep, Gill's is the place, for me.

West Coast Fishing Tackle is a small tackle shop but good.  Also Anglers west is pretty good but expensive.

I don't have much to offer about which stores are the best, but I have to say that I don't particularly like stores where the posted price isn't the actual price.

I used to buy quite a lot of tackle in the early eighties from the A-N but have been dissapointed in the selection in the last 3-4 years ,used to be a bit of a sat. mor. outing look at tackle have one of those hot dogs and a malt with my nephew.
Re: Brian Babcock and the store those guys have always been informative and competivly priced.
Brian deserves a ton of credit he spends a huge amount of time helping out kids and is a stallwort when it comes to charitable donations.he's worked hard for what he got.
re; Jaymers good bunch of new blood honest, competative, energetic,good to see young people willing to have a go at buisness,  

[JigHead]

OOo another cheesy answer. the best store is where i shop

Highwater Tackle, North Vancouver

totally agree with you Doc!   happened to be on the north shore last year, and found Highwater tackle. left my girlfriend hopping mad in the truck as i went in and talked to the owner for an hour or so. i asked if he had any fishing creels, he said no but would order me one and go and pick it up!!! came back about 3 hours later and he handed it to me!! ended up buying a new baitcaster rod too (highwater classic - graphite) got a great price on both, and great service.............due to me owing taxes, i have'nt bought anything this year    , but will buy a new flyrod soon from highwater!!!!!!!

by the way Dr, nice to meet you finally today!!

Walmart...fairly cheap prices, no one bugs you, nice yellow rain jackets that I don't find at the other stores

Many moons ago I made the mistake of wearing a yellow rain coat.

Nick saw me fishing with it on and said every fish in the Fraser Valley could also see me.

Lesson learned.
