Their knowledge of the local fisheries is amazing. Joe and Al guided me where, when and how to catch the local species. The store is stocked with a wide selection of gear that met my budget. They also stock live and frozen bait. I highly recommend Fish Tales.

I just love going into this tackle shop. Very helpful and right there if you need anything and in a very convenient location. It’s a real pleasure to stop in many mornings to buy my bait. If I am not sure on what I need specifically they go out of their way to help you and give very good advice. If you need to buy a gift for your friend or relative and undecided you will find it there for that Special someone. I look forward to stopping in like I need that first cup of coffee. Thank you for all you do for us fisherwoman and men!

Nice store, reasonable prices, knowledgeable and helpful. Good stock of fishing supplies. Always have live baits.

I go to Fish Tales for all of my fishing needs! As a local charter captain, it’s important for me to go somewhere I can rely on that they’ll have the bait, tackle, and fishing setups I need and they always do! They are super helpful, they will give you great info and the service is beyond great! Keep up the great work guys! You have my business and future recommendations for years to come!

The folks at Fish Tales and Tackle are friendly and share knowledge of where and when to fish from shore or small craft. They carry good bait at reasonable prices as well as lures, tackle and equipment. The store is located on Tamiami Trail convenient to Osprey, Nokomis, Venice and multiple public parks on the water.
