Best Bait Shop Lansing Near Me

Austin Karlzen: If you like deals on tackle(some new but most older) this place should NOT be overlooked. They have all types of fishing rods, tackle, baits, lures, soft plastics, weights, a wall of various hooks and fair sized area for fly tying enthusiasts. All of it priced fair and usually plenty of it.

Jeff Johnston: real good place to get your fishing supplies. iv caught many fish on the advice and minnows from the bait shop. big bonus is she can get your pole fixed and maintained. she replaced a tip on my favorite pole in under 5 minutes. I continue to recommend this place to anyone.

Elizabeth Gilroy: Great experience! Owner was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Price was more than fair. Can’t recommend this shop highly enough and won’t be shopping for fishing gear anywhere else from now on.

Matt Brodhead: Your grandfather’s bait shop is alive and well in Lansing. Looking for something? I’m sure they have it in some form. If not they sure as heck can tell ya where you can find it.

John Howell: Best place to go for ANYTHING you need. Anna is amazing and will help you out with anything from a total outfitting to just some worms or minnows.Looking to upgrade or clear out some fear? Take it in and see what you can do with it.

Edward Henley: The owner Ann is a great and wonderful person. Her shop was full with all kinds of odds and ends.Don't let the size of the place fool you. she utilizes every nook and cranny, Along with giving back to her community.

Travis Smith: Very helpful and friendly staff. Many options of lures to choose from.

Scott McMillan: I was like a kid in a candy store in there. Lots of new fishing stuff from lures, line, and terminal tackle. As well as a ton of reasonably priced used fishing stuff from poles, lures, tackle boxes and tackle. Will try to give the small business owner more of my business, now that I know how much fishing stuff is available.

David Kloeckner: Great service

Alek Roehl: Quality fly fishing gear, well-stocked fly selection for various fisheries in Michigan, plenty of fly tying materials, and pleasant conversations with great people behind the counter of the shop. Close proximity to Michigan State University's campus in East Lansing. Highly recommend stopping in.

Freedom Yard Drains: Stopped by on Saturday 12/17 at 1pm. The sign on the door said store hours 10-2. Store was closed. I drove a long way to spend money.

Dan Dombos: We went through a rough patch on a recent order that didn't go as planned. I may or may not get what I tried to order, but they reached out and made amends. I'm probably shopping in person from now on, but that's better for them anyway.Four stars for a well-stocked local fly shop in mid and west Michigan.

Austin Karlzen: Good selection for a smaller shop, okay prices, good shop to go to for information on local streams/rivers. I've been going here for about a year and half and even bought a fairly expensive (to me) 8 weight rod and reel last year for pike/larger flies. Until today I haven't had a reason to complain. I walked in later today(2/15/22) and the guy seemed very informed on early year tactics and I told him I'm in the market for an inexpensive 11/12 weight rod and reel. He pulls out a 7/8 orvis reel and tries to tell me it's basically an 11 weight reel and I realize the drag systems may not scale up based on weight for some brands/applications/etc but I knew what I was in the market for for a reel. It upset me a bit to think he could try and sell me on a new reel that may or may not be able to hold all the line and backing I will need for my setup AND the drag I may need when the fish tries running off(MUSKY). They had a decent offer on an Echo Husky 11 weight rod and I was glad that it was an option for me but a bit out of my price range for a little bit.

William Rundle: Small store. Rarely open reliably. Most of the time I show up they're closed. Hours contradict whatever is posted anywhere online. Decent selection of materials when they can keep stock. Service is outstanding, but again, it's difficult to know when the shop is open.Edit. Hours are updated and my review went from 3 to 5 since it is now easier to plan trips while the business is open.

Brian K: Hours are terrible!!!

Anthony Loiselle: Great place, Brian is the best! Very knowledgeable, great products, and he is willing to go out of his way for the customer, support your local fly guy!

Richard Narrington: Excellent fly shop!!

Patrick Perrin: Great customer service! I purchased a new fly rod, and when I went to use it for the first time one of the sections was cracked. I contacted Nomad and explained the situation. They were able to replace the rod that same day, no questions asked. I was literally in and out of the store in about 2 minutes. Love it when a business stands behind their products! Highly recommended!

Ryan del Gaudio: I’m a beginner fly fisherman, went to nomad anglers in Lansing, even with the preventions covid-19 has brought, Brian was able to set me up and give me advice to help me get out on the water. Highly recommend.

Jon Arend: Love going in here. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great selection to choose from.

jay everett belous: Best service and most knowledgeable crew

Rich Augsburger: One stop shopping. Great selections and average pricing.

Lance Beasley: I'm new to fly tying. The staff at Nomad Anglers is always happy to be there and have been very helpful in getting materials and giving advice on trying flys. Honestly, I don't think I've ever had as good an experience as a customer anywhere else - no matter what I was buying.

Tim Schofield: Great shop. Clean, organized and friendly staff 🙂

Paul Glass: Folks at Nomad run a great shop. They were out of stock on an item so I sent an email asking when they'd get more in. An hour later I had an email asking me what I wanted and a week later another email saying they had what I was looking for and were holding it for me. When my package arrived it had a handwritten note directly to me.Amazon is great for light bulbs and diapers, Nomad is better for fishing stuff.They're email newsletter doesn't even suck. What more could you even ask for.

battleship Strachan: Great knowledge

Kent Dow: Excellent!!

Game Of Inches TV: Went in for a pair of waders for a hunt and the guys were extremely helpful.

Douglas Edwards: Pure fishing

Jayson Chapman: Has become my go to place for all things outdoors ! The selection is good, and the prices pretty decent overall . Knowledgeable and friendly customer service

Evan Murphy: Creepy gun culture and still seems to be going out of business. Always have issues with computers at checkout but say it just happened. No fishing stock at all. Go elsewhere.

Jeremy B: Lots of selection on guns. One time I went in to get deer tags and machine was down after 30 minutes of trying had to go somewhere else.

Mitch Adam: A good sporting goods store. They have a good supply of gear for waterfowl hunting, wich is really nice for me. They have I nice size gun counter with a fairly large supply of hand guns and long guns. It's also convenient to have 5.11 tactical gear in the store as well. The camping and hiking gear section is well laid out and stocked as well. The pricing on apparel is pretty high though. Can't say much about the fishing or bow hunting departments as I've never been through them. They seem to be as well stocked and supplied as the rest of the store though.

Joe Ladd: Not bad product lines but the telephone automated service does not work at all. It breaks up, never forwards your call or simply hangs up. If I lived next store it wouldn't be a problem but i am a half hour away. I hope they fix this soon.

Thomas Goodson: Great place for all your outdoor needs and a good selection

Robert Clarke: Had what I needed at fair price

Juston Marshall: I got really great service.

Rafael Buckles: The staff was very kind and were able to fully refund my purchase. I actually ended up buying a better gun for a similar price.

Cody Darnell: Customer service is poor. had to call multipleTimes after being sat on hold for 13 mins both times and the gentleman that did answer was just rude! Will definitely take my business else where

Colton Schmaltz: Ordered a shotgun online for pickup and it turned out that the picture they had posted to the website was Incorrect. The staff was very kind and were able to fully refund my purchase. I actually ended up buying a better gun for a similar price. 10/10 staff 5/10 website

geemanjeff: Bought a Master built smoker. Great service and great price.

Clayton: Helpful staff

C T (MnkyDlffy): I enjoy as a regular customer browsing and shopping this sportsman warehouse but today changed that.I recently experience being followed by a employee pasting back and forth glaring his eyes my way pretending to look and touch stuff like he's working being a physiognomy maybe because of my skin color or ethinc treated as if i was a thief attempting to steal something.I was just checking out different products and reading descriptions to make sure I was going to buy the right thing. I don't mean to assume anything but I would prefer any employee to just come my way and ask if i needed any help.

Rjelmiles: Helpful and friendly staff. Large selection on a variety of outdoor sporting goods.

Brandon Elbers: Lots of variety, fair prices, helpful staff

Robert Augustyn: Very friendly and had exactly what I needed

Bill Bennett: The woman currently working now doesn't even know how to read the part manual to get the part you need... Go somewhere else if it requires any assistance to get the part you need.

Jon Kelly: Drove all the way from Grand Ledge to find the store locked at 1:30 on a Saturday. Website says open until 5. Thanks for the call letting me know my stuff was in, then deciding to close early

Scott Wild: Great place to find your boating needs. Kinda of a weird spot but it works

S Wild: Great place! 1st time there an was very impressed on the selection. The staff was a lot of help

G A: Very friendly, helpful and courteous

Rob. V: Jim, Manager of The West Marine location in Lansing,mi was Extremely Helpful. I was on the hunt for a railblaza star HD mount and Jim called Railblaza up and I Now have my Mounts Coming in The Mail. Employees where really nice and helpful as well. Thanks Everyone down at West Marine.

Emily Lilly-lacca: Nice service by the employees

Roy Osterhout: If you need boat stuff, it's the place to go

Jason Reader: Knowledgeable and really helpful !!

Colonial Tinker: Had what i needed

Cheryl Niznak: Not helpful. High prices. Purchased Mercury 3.5 outboard. Took it to the lake. Brand new motor wouldn't start. A new motor should start. West Marine was not taking responsibility for selling a bad motor . Now we have to take it in and deal with Mercury directly. Who knows how long that will take. Bad choice going there. Don't go there.

Laura W: We were planning on grabbing a bunch of stuff at West Marine. They're pretty well wiped out of stock. No tubes. No life jackets. No truck deliveries in 4 weeks. The shelves look like they're going out of business. No public restroom even for customers. Exact cash or card only. Masks mandatory for entry. Staff was friendly.

Chas Petersen: Associates were very friendly and helpful. Shelves were light but they offered to send me what I was looking for.

Katrina McGinnis: It was wonderful Aloha West Marina they always have what I want very friendly people you're in you're out not too expensive I wouldn't go nowhere else

Andrew Denler: Great place, great workers. Helped me make the better decision for supplies.

Dan Ohagan: No gripe about the location. The service is good and they have lots of the things you need. My issue is with West Marine. The price gouging they engage in is jaw dropping. I once paid 70 some odd dollars for a standard fuel hose because I needed it that day. Only ever go to West Marine in an emergency. The emergency being that you really want to be on the water 😉.
