Help needed...

I'm stuck.

I have an assignment from a trade magazine to write an article which features conventional tackle shops that also have fly gear as part of its mix. Ideally, what I'd like is a store or two or three that have added the flyfishing section within the past few years.

The shops must be independent retailers, no big boxes or large chain stores, please. I need the shop name and phone number.

I wouldn't ask you folks, but this time my usual sources are drawing a blank.

Thanks,

Keith

Sports and More - Sedro Woolley, WA. (360) 855-0648

Both of these stores have extensive tackle shops with the minimum fly gear. Holiday Market has more fly then Sports & More. Both have been in business for a number of years now so I am not sure they meet your criteria.

Hurry up with that article. Less than 10 years ago, I could have given you a list of 4 locally owned shops. Three of the four have closed. Here's the one left. GAT (Guns, Archery, Tackle), 847 428-4867, ask for Ken D.. http://www.gatguns.com/
