This is a shop that has old, recent, and brand new gear! The aisles are all completely full from the top to the floor! Clothing to fishing rod repairs! They have all the saltwater tackle and freshwater lures to have you on your favorite spot properly equipped to handle a day of fishing. The store is expansive, so it will require an hour or so to peruse the merch. There are plenty of rod and reel combos all in one store to ensure you find something you like! 4/5 stars.(Please repair the flooring to ensure the safety of your customers as that will be far costlier in case of accident.-1 star)
First time visiting this lil diamond of a fishing world store,they repair rods and reels and have a huge stock of just about all the tackle you will need for fishing. If your looking for a rod,a reel,a rod an reel combo,cast net,frozen baits,shirts for fishing,glasses for fishing,etc.etc. then this is a must stop shop.better prices than bass pro and alot of other tackle supply chain stores. I highly recommend this place,great customer service and very knowledgeable to help set you up with the right gear. Will definitely be back time an time again!
This is one of my tackle joints. They gave an awesome selection. The guys are very helpful as well. I recommend whole heartedly.
If you havent been to this place your missing out. Mike and staff are awesome. Great selection and prices. Highly recommended.
Great selection of products. Whatever youre fishing for, theyve got the gear for it. Great repair shop for rods and reels too. Had 2 rods repaired and a reel cleaned up and put back into service after years of neglect. Sometimes they have closeout/clearance items that are flat out great deals.
This place is amazing. Customer service is top notch. The best place to buy, learn about fishing and tackle. I am a beginner about to buy my second rod and reel. Thank for all the advice. This is a must go and visit kind a shop.
Awesome Tackle Store. Was able to purchase a combo rod and reel with tackle box with lures every thing my boy needs to go fishing Wow factor they shipped it to Maryland for his birthday. Very Thankful for all there help
I took my 6 year old to SE Liquidators today for the first time as hes expressed an interest in fishing lately. A gentleman who presumably was the owner assisted us in finding the right tackle. As we were leaving he picked a shirt off a rack and gave it to my son and told him to wear it when we go fishing! My son was on Cloud 9! It was great to support a local business who clearly cares about providing a great experience for their customers! Well definitely be back and will be sending our friends their way too! Thank you!!
Great store. These guys should look into selling castnets from wholesale castnets too! One of the only products I have used that they arent having in stock.
Could not get nobody to wait on me, once they found out how much I was looking to spend. The good. They have everything in that store except the fish themselves. I have never seen such an inventory. If they dont have it, it hasnt been invented yet. Yes I recommend the store and yes I will go there again.
Honestly if I lived in Tampa Id go there a lot more. They have a good selection of everything. Friendly staff and great service.
Definately one of the best spots to hit up for your fishing gear
Best place to get fish and tackle supplies. They have a very friendly staff that will help you with whatever you need. They do great work on rods. Fair prices.
They best place to buy all your title things from broad reels repair fix reticle rescreened I always go there
Love this place. Always have everything I need for the right price.
Excellent service, especially in the repair department. Need a reel serviced or rod repaired this is the place.
The young people staffing this shop show great real respect for customers and the environment, And they seem to know where every little thing is -- and the show pride in how much they know about each little thing. Theyre honesty in talking about how the bytes not on right now, instead of trying to push something that just wont-work was refreshing. I had an islet replaced on my fishing rod, and I was able to pick up a used rod and a good price. From a respectable array of build your own supplies, and brand names, to customized rods, this place has the equipment to get you on the water. As I was looking through the isles, while a bit higher than my yard sale prices, they have in stock every lure Ive ever seen catch a fish. While parkings a challenge, and the storefront is not waterfront, this is a respectable this shop, staffed with people who are knowledgeable and respectable. Its the place for guides and working fishermen, as well as the more dedicated sportsman. I think they should have their own YouTube channel, or ticktock, or something. If youre serious about fishing, its worth the trip across the bridge. What I didnt mention was the display cases full of used reels at reasonable prices, and they also have racks and racks of ready to go fishing rods, and rod reel combos. Buy something new, and pick up the thread or let them fill the spool.
Super helpful staff. Huge selection...new and used gear available. Recommend stopping by.
Havent owned tackle in years Scanio and family all treated me very good.
Sold me a $40.00 fishing rod it broke in monthWent back up and had a man with a old ......I mean old never seen before.....it broke....went back to talk to manager wouldnt replace said its made of plastic told him bought it a couple months ago....he said he would sell me another piece that broke....had to pay $10.00Im disable have a rod in my leg ......please dont shop at the store in tampa...Mean manager
Great place to get all types of fishing gear. Prices are good and even better when there is a sale happening. They have an award point program on all purchases if youre a member. Also they support the active and retired military with a discount. I always support small businesses that support our troops!
Cant say enough about this fabulous spot. You have to come and check it out. Its AMAZING
I was with my son Daddys D .everyone was so nice and have super prices..God bless the store.
Best place for information! Will continue shopping here
They have everything your looking for nice staff friendly
Best place to have rods and reels repaired thanks Gary
Amazing selection for the amount of space they have! Good stuff too, no junk really. Lots of good deals marked down 40% when I walked in. Very helpful but nobody bugging you making you feel like its not ok to just look around either. Its a long drive for me but Ill still go back from time to time just because I like it better than any other shop Ive been to in all of the St Pete area.
I dropped my fishing rod off to get some of the guides replaced the gentleman that did the repair took extra time in matching the guides and also the string. I really appreciate how fast the turnaround was so I could take my son fishing I will be bringing in all of my rods and reels from now on to get serviced or repaired thank you so much
Amazing! Recommended! We have an obligation to honor small businesses!
Awesome person who helped me with information on shark fishingSincerelyKevin Wall
First time visiting store. They have everything you could want. Cool store, cool people. Will definitely be back soon.
This is a good place to go ahead and work with the fishing lies
Bought my Stellar Lite rod here a while back and brought it in for repair as the top 2 eyelet needed replacing, got it back and the drunk that fixes the rods messed up the epoxy mixture around the guide (its still sticky 2 weeks later) and the top guide was off center. Before we could even go fishing, while trying to put on a new hook, the the rod snapped just above one of the guides that was improperly fixed-- there was no heavy tension on the rod that would have made that happen. So, I brought my rod back in in an attempt to have it replaced as Star Rods has a lifetime warranty. I spoke with two of the younger employees, they confirmed that the epoxy was mixed incorrectly and laughed about the poor job that was done by Gary. They called the owner to the front as they were not allowed to do the return, I waited for over 15 minutes and then the owner, Mike, was unhelpful and tried to place the blame on me & my husband for the rod snapping. He questioned how the line was fed through and then proceeded to teach me something on how to put the line through to put on a new hook. I am not an idiot, but that is how I was treated. The warranty that Star Rods offers is the reason I bought this rod. Ive seen these rods replaced with no hassle numerous times at other stores for reasons like breaking because theve been closed in car doors.... BUT that is not what happened with my rod. Instead of Mike providing good customer service and just replacing it under the warranty, he placed the blame on me and wouldnt replace the rod. Seems to me he just didnt want to take a chance on whether or not Star Rods would cover it under warranty. My husband and I have shopped here for years and years and have spent thousands of dollars here, we love to be able to shop local, but this is unacceptable repair service and absolutely unacceptable customer service. Whatever happened to the nice lady that worked the front? We will not be back, you have lost our business and we will spread the word regarding the shoddy work being done by the alcoholic in the repair shop as well as the terrible customer service being provided by the owner. Thankfully, we have Bass Pro!
Best tackle in the state hands down!!!
Great, was there yesterday & the gentleman in the back that fixes the fishing rods was very helpful to my friend...I went back today just to see him & he fixed my rods & was honest about the rest of them....This place really have everything you need to reel in any type of fish new or used rods/reels....wish I knew about this place earlier
Best tackle store in the Tampa Bay AREA
Well stocked store for your fishing needs!
I went to have a rod repaired, VINCE AND THE STAFF ARE VERY EXPERIENCED IN ALL PHASES OF FISHING, BOATING, THE LIKES, NOT DISAPPOINTED AT ALL, AS A MATTER OF FACT, I WAS AMAZED. ANSTILLAMTTODAYTHIS DAY AMTOTHUS DAY
Great customer service, nice selections from beginners to pros, and decent prices!!!
Great selection of all types of fishing tackle at reasonable prices and knowledgeable staff.
Came to return a defective tackle bag my girlfriend purchased for me as a Valentines day gift, I was greeted immediately by the gentleman with glasses who asked what brought me in today.. I let him know that the plastic strap was missing. He proceeded to check out the bag and said lets get you a new one! We went over to the selection of bags and he pulled out a new one completely intact. I shook his hand and he let me know how much he appreciated my business and I went on my way!! Fantastic customer service by this gentleman.
Great selection, excellent customer service and hubby loves the reel he purchase.
Solid tackle store with a good selection including used and vintage rods and reels. Rod building materials, full reel servicing and rod repair. Friendly staff.
“So many tackle so little time”. . Prices are reasonable. Got a great deal tuf boat boots. Just spent time there drooling at all the goodies. Felt like a candy store but all fishing candies. Good luck and don’t tell your partner you spent $$$$ money. It’s for her! Yeah.
Discounted fishing gear fresh and saltwater. Reel and rod repairs available.
All your fishings needs both salt and fresh at a good price.
Great inventory, knowledgeable staff, fair prices.
Awesome tackle store, great service dept., plenty of frozen bait
Everything u need to get that fish u want lol very helpful clean area good deals
A while back I had an issue with this store and felt slighted. I’d like to take the chance and let people now that this place is a good place to go to for fishing supplies and repairs. The staff are knowledgeable and ready to help. I recommend southeastern fishing to people on a daily basis. Not only are they a great company to make purchases from they give back to the community in several ways. Through drives and through a program they have for children. I really like this company.
Great selection!
Kool place
Very helpful staff. I enjoyed my visit. The prices were good store was well managed. I would recommend going there to buy fishing gear. Staff knows fishing not clerks.
A nice place to visit and get what you need, may it be a rods and reels or tackle at a fair price with a person thatknow what you need know. Thank You.
Much to do about nothingPrices are retail
Great prices, selection, and service! Rod and reel repairs as well as a selection of used rods and reels as well. I wish they were closer, Id be there all the time lol.
Shouldnt 20 to 40 percent off aparrel include foot aperral?
They really were helpful and informative to talk to.
Amazing selection and staff. Will definitely be back!!
Not the friendliest people to deal with.
They are a little bit more disorganized than your big chain store, but dont let that fool you. These guys have what you need at the right price and as a bonus they actually know what they are talking about. I will be back.
Man the pack place is packed with inventory. Always great prices. Vincent and George to a great job ...
Customer satisfaction and attention
Great place for all sorts of fishing tackle, from salt water to fresh water. Rods and reels, gear and clothing. Staff is very helpful and very friendly.
Very helpful!
Very goodUsed and new stuff
Top. Notch.
Great local tackle that is family owned. Also best prices around.
Large variety of equipment and very helpful associates. They helped me price out some new eyes for a rod Im trying to fix up and even helped me find a few other things I was looking for too. Theyre also very reasonable when selling different fishing gear.
Love the service there just like family
Best mom and pop in Florida and I have been around to many shops. I have been going here for littarly years. if they dont have it you honestly dont need it. Dont rate based on prices because your either going to over pay or get a deal anywhere you go. Just help support them and know when you spend your money it actually matters not like name brand stores where the money you spend is a drop in the pot.
Great selection some good prices some not so great but its got a to z
Best place to have your stuff repaired. Gary is an old salt who is no nonsense and knows his stuff. Their pricing is excellent and their turn around is pretty quick. I have had several reels and rods repaired by them and its always been a great experience.
Great little place, almost around the corner from my house. Prices are comparable to any other fishing joint to include Walmart which is usually my go to place. I recommend this place highly as Ill be shopping there a lot!
Great selection ! Great price ! However, dont buy rods from George on the side, there fake G Loomis !
Tampa tackle kings
Went here today to get started saltwater fishing with little knowledge since I only have been freshwater fishing and they took the time to recommend a saltwater rod and reel setup, line hooks and bait. Great customer service and I would recommend to anyone out there!
This is the best tackle store in Tampa, great prices, huge variety, nice helpful employees. They have both new and used equipment, rod and reel repairs, equipment for both freshwater and salt water, frozen bait, clothing, shoes hats, sunglasses. Everything you could need to have a successful outing.
Huge selection with great prices. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Definitely recommend and will return.
Excellent customer service fair prices
Great service and Best Selection
They have all the good stuff if your a fisherman. The personnel are very knowledgeable, they repair reels, the place is just awesome.
Best prices anywhere. They give a military discount. Staff is friendly and have a lot of fishing knowledge.
Best fishing tackle store
Best fishing supply store. Skip Bass Pro and come here.
Went here and purchased two combos. On my way back to purchase a third combo and a castnet right now. I drive all the way there from Largo and will continue to do so every time that Ive got a few dollars in my pocket and rent isnt do. The people are great. The place is great. The prices are great. This is the only place to go. Period
Good selection along with decent prices
Have shopped here for years and have found the store to have a great selection and variety of fishing items at competitive prices. Personal interest in rod / reel repairs and have received excellent assistance in both technical advice and product availability.Only downside I can speak to is the parking situation is sometimes challenging.
I found the company while doing a google search for a fishing reel that I wanted to purchase. The price was decent and they had the specific model that I wanted. Unfortunately when I went to purchase the item with their online checkout I noticed that they do not have a secure server. That includes for credit card transactions and to create an account.At best this is unprofessional and gross ignorance on their part. At worst it is negligent disregard for the security of their customers. I called and informed them of this significant security issue and the person I spoke with seemed to think it was okay. If they do not correct the problem it is safe to say they do not care as they have been informed.Hopefully they will do the right thing and protect their customers even though it does involve a minimal increase in overhead cost to their business. Luckily I noticed the problem before I submitted the transaction.
From Jacksonville, so I was kind of new to fishing the Bay Area. Been in here less than 10 times and already got 2 outfits to hit the water. Mike and the guys have all the knowledge to get you on the water and catch fish. Thanks will be in here soon.
I dont know to much about this place but I did find out that they dont sell live crickets.
They were very helpful and have some good bargains. They have a great selection of fishing gear.
Friendly staff, good prices, wide range of tackle. They carry pretty much any outfit youll need for fishing from bass to bull sharks.
Very professional
Awesome place with friendly and helpful staff. My top spot for tackle and gear. They have just about everything.
Awesome shop! Guys here are very helpful and friendly!
Mis leading bunch of ppl here dont think they no much about actually fishing over loaded my real didnt put on backing on the real charge me double what it usually cost I dont need to say no more.
Always a pleasure. Best prices, best service
Dear Henry,I read your post about the recent experience in my store. After speaking with the individual you worked with, Im a little confused about your response. The information given to you regarding the braid is accurate. The reason braid breaks on a cast is due to three things: defective product, guides that are damaged, and line wrap. We told you we would gladly research the issue if you brought in your product. We stand behind the products we sell, thats your warranty. My relationship with all the braided line manufacturers will help in diagnosing the problems.Secondly, our pricing: We as a business try to adhere to the pricing that our manufactures recommend. I can promise we offer the lowest prices on all your tackle needs. Based on our business model, we buy in quantities that afford us to pass on the savings to our customers. If a company sells a product for a better price point, Ill be glad to match. What we have found in 47 years of business.... we are ultra competitive with our industry and find few willing to compete with us.In-stock/Inventory: We offer every full line manufacturer in our industry. Your comments about the selection of product seem to be off slightly. We have every major brand rod and reel for your disposal. If you request a rare item, my sources to special order you a product are second to none. Most special order products will be delivered in a short fulfillment time frame.Customer Service / Loyalty: We provide the best customer service experience in our industry. Im confident that our customer base appreciates the effort that we put into our brand. Some, as in your case, seem to prefer other options. If promoting another store is important to you, then I understand this review. If you want resolution to this issue, I will make it right.This negative review is not a reflection of my company, but another opportunity to please. Looking forward to the dialog.
