A small-town outdoor store in Rocky Mountain House, Alberta, with fishing tackle, bait, archery, firearms, trapping supplies and now farm and feed goods. Staff knowledge and fair prices stand out.
Tackle and Trails is a locally run outdoor shop on the main street in Rocky Mountain House. Reviewers describe a store that covers fishing, hunting, archery, trapping, camping and hiking in a small space, and it has recently added animal feed and farm supplies.
Staff are the reason people keep coming back. The owner and his team get steady praise for knowing their gear and the local area, for archery advice and bow tuning, and for special-ordering what isn't in stock. Several anglers compare prices favourably with the big chains, citing lures and bear spray in particular.
Anglers mention a strong selection of flies and jigs, many locally tied, and fresh and frozen bait. Hunters point to new and consignment rifles, ammunition, firearms and archery servicing, and trapping and tanning supplies that are hard to find elsewhere. You can also pick up a fishing licence and, according to one reviewer, a range membership.
A few shoppers found the shelves a bit thin at times, and one older review called the shop dirty. One customer had a dispute over adding a family member to a rod and gun club membership sold through the store.
