Built by anglers, for anglers
A real bait shop, run by people who fish your water
We fish Simcoe, the Holland and the Humber and everything in between.
That's why the shelves look the way they do: we stock the shop the way we'd stock our own boats, because most of what's on them is what we're throwing that same week.

Wear the shop on the water
Heavyweight cotton, embroidered anchor logo, built for early mornings.
This isn't merch for the sake of merch. It's the stuff we actually wear on the water, so it had to hold up to cold hands, wet gear and a truck bed. Wear it on the boat, wear it to the shop, wear it because you fish here too.

★★★★★Best bait in the north end, hands down. The shiners are always lively and they actually tell you what's working on Cook's Bay.
★★★★★Stopped in early on the way to Simcoe, in and out in five minutes with worms and a new jig. Right off the 400, easy parking with the trailer.
★★★★★Took my son in for his first rod and they spent twenty minutes setting it up and showing him knots. That's why we keep coming back.
