Default My new place to buy tackle

Ive been out of saltwater fishing for a while and needed to update my arsenal. Back in the day I use to go to Lake Charles and buy my baits and what not. I checked out a tackle shop in Sulphur about a year ago and really liked it. Its not huge by far but it has something I havent seen at a tackle shop in a long time. That thing is SERVICE. Something you dont see much anymore.
I went in this shop with all 3 of my plano boxes. ha. One guy looked at what I had and brought me to the isle where they keep the items I needed. I told the guy load me up and to my surprise he grabbed about 8 packs of baits. Out of the vast amount of plastics he had in this store, this is all I needed? He assured me that was it to get me going. I walked out of the store for about $25.00 and kinda confused. If I would have went to the other side of the river it probaly would have been a lot more.
Do yourself a favor and go to The Tackle Box. Many Thanks

They are good people over there. And yes, the customer service is excellent. I always recommend them.

Glad to have them as a sponsor of the site.

I find them to be more knowledgeable and willing to point you in the right direction.

I'm not much of a bass fisherman and I have all the saltwater tackle in the frikin world....so my buddies wanted to go after dem green trout. I know the TB has a great selection of freshwater tackle. I walked in and saw OB...straight up told'em hey I have an idea of what what i need and explained where i was fishing. Got me hooked up with the baits and everything without BS. Heck I'll just go there and BS with the folks and look around...okay well yes I end up buying something. Like a women in a shoe/purse store Its nice to have a place that stocks quality tackle and gear so close!

I have been wanting to stop in as I have heard a lot about the Tackle Box on this forum. I usually go to the country station in Broussard but I will be going to Houston sometime this week for work and plan to stop at the Tackle Box on the way there or back. I am in the process of buying a new reel and am leaning towards a Lew's. Does the tackel box sell reels and more specifically Lew's?

Also, what are the hours of operation for the Tackle box? Thanks!

They close at 6 mon-fri. Not sure when they open. Ob can help you find anything you need for fishing. Ob is a stand up guy and one of my best friends. Geaux see him. It's worth your time.

Sounds like a topic for the tackle forum. Look forward to hearing your input on the pros and cons of your shimano Chronarch compared to lew's or other reels.
