Helping Anglers of All Levels Catch More Fish

Our mission: To help everyone, from new anglers to the tournament pro, be more successful out on the water by providing the best tackle and up-to-date fishing reports from local fisherman.

About Us

We are a brick and mortar as well as online fishing tackle retailer based out of Gainesville, Texas, originating from our love of fishing, and the desire to help all anglers have more success on the water.

Fishing a large public lake can be challenging, and most times it would be great to have a little inside information on what to throw and where to throw it. This small insight could turn a good trip into a great one, keep a youngster excited for the next one, or be the difference of finishing in the money or not. We source these nuggets of gold from the guys and gals that love being on the water as much as possible.

Current Texas Bass Fishing Reports

Our team of anglers are passionate about sharing their knowledge to help others figure out the pattern and get on the fish quicker. We offer contributors great discounts on all their purchases! Sometimes anglers suggest lures or brands we don't have in stock, so we add them to the store ASAP. This sometimes includes lures from individuals making them in-house on a small scale. We love that, because it gives us a chance to work with some great, innovative people, making specific lures for a local lake. We get to bring that local finesse to all our customers.

Building a community of fisherman.

We are excited to provide this platform to build a community of fisherman helping each other catch more fish, especially those that are new to the sport. We also hope to save you money by providing targeted gear for the lake you fish at the best possible prices.

Join our team of fishing report contributors.

Whether you fish a couple times a week or only a few times a month, you can help your fellow anglers have a fun day on the water by submitting a current fishing report. In turn, we'll give you store credit to buy tackle. Learn more here.
