THE ORIGIN STORY

How I Got Hooked

Need fishing advice? Robert is your guy. A dedicated fisherman through and through, his knowledge of tackle, gear, and technique didn't come from a store shelf, it came from actual time on the water. That real experience is exactly why he's responsible for stocking and curating the fishing section in the store, since he knows the difference between gear that looks good and gear that actually gets used. What started as a personal hobby turned into the section of the store he takes the most pride in.

ON THE FLOOR

What I Curate

You'll usually find Robert helping customers at the register on the weekends, often sporting a fishing-themed shirt that gives away exactly where his head's at. He's the one who makes sure the fishing section stays stocked with gear worth grabbing, from vintage tackle to rods and reels that still have plenty of life left in them. He's picky about it too; nothing makes the cut unless he'd actually use it himself. Whether you're hunting for something specific or just want to swap fishing stories, don't hesitate to ask Robert; he'll talk your ear off about it happily.

" Good gear doesn't need to be new. It just needs to still work when it matters. "

STILL Currently

Hunting For

Vintage tackle boxes, old reels with real character, anything fishing-related that's built to last rather than built to be replaced. If it's got some wear on it from actual use, that's a good sign in Robert's book.
