I have to also agree with Sundancerfisher and Mikediz. I have bought a few things over the years there. But they always seemed standoffish and unwelcoming.
I took a friend there last year that was from out of town. He and I have each fly fished for decades. We even fly fished together competitively on a team. When my friend asked a simple question about a product, the guy looked at him and said maybe you need to come take one of our beginner courses. We both looked at each other and laughed. I left the $100+ of stuff I was going to buy on their counter and we both walked out.
I will continue to shop at Fish Tales and Iron Bow. Two great shops in our city.
