What visitors say
Grimsby Tackle is an independent fishing store with an old-school feel, and nearly 300 reviews put it among the better-rated tackle shops in the region. Reviewers describe shelves crammed with gear, and one called it an escape room for anglers.
Staff knowledge comes up again and again. Visitors say employees take time to help pick the right setup and suggest where to fish, and one group caught lake trout on the rig a staff member recommended. It also stocks boat equipment such as downrigger track systems, which suits the Lake Ontario salmon and trout crowd.
The online side gets praise too. Several customers mention fast delivery, with one order arriving within two days, and careful packaging, including for a one-piece rod. There's a free parking lot, which reviewers say is roomy.
Complaints are rare. The small number of lower ratings aren't explained in the recent reviews, and the main drawback people mention is simply wishing the store were closer.
