Compared to Amazon the warmies here were $6 cheaper per Warmie. Happy and surprised, we saved almost $50 from buying them from here. Of all places. Then there's the upstairs apparel section of the store. I found nice hats, gloves, home / boat decor, and a beautiful heavy duty thermal my man loved. It's not pictured due to him wearing it immediately upon seeing it. Now it's in the laundry. This place has excellent gift items, necessities, and prices that are super reasonable. I was surprised they had things on sale also. Great place. Great gifts. I'm sure a gift card could benefit the whole family.

I thought kindness in this world was gone but I was wrong they took me there and brought me back and assisted me in finding the clamps I needed . These are a great bunch of guys that work here. Thankyou all for the kindness and friendship you showed us . Anyone visiting please go by and check them out. We made it home on the repairs.

I stopped by for an inexpensive cooler to carry some seafood home. They had the perfect cooler for only $5. The clerk was helpful and friendly.

The inventory is pretty good but the friendly and helpful service put them in the 5 star tier in my book, definitely swing by if you are shopping for fishing tackle and gear. The Deets: My friends I vacation with had forgotten to bring their fishing rods/tackle on the trip to Holden Beach this year, and even though it's not the optimal time of year to go fishing they wanted to do so during the stay. In looking around for places that might have a good supply of fishing needs, we found The Rod & Reel Shop along the main causeway strip before the bridge going over the bridge to the beach (that big street sign helped). Inside, they have just about every piece of fishing equipment, rods/reels, tackle, and accessories one may need, definitely a good selection. We found all the necessities needed for fishing that would do the trick without breaking the bank. Above all, the staff there were delightfully pleasant, helpful, and wanted to make sure we found what we needed...they were so friendly! On this point alone I'd say they get a great review. Only ding I can find that would be a 4.5 stars technically is that the bloodworms for bait were pretty expensive here but they had some shrimp that was just what was needed bait wise. If you want to look around for fishing gear needs, I'd say put The Rod & Reel Shop in your places to check out as we are happy we did!

I went here in hopes of grabbing a rod and reel and some basics to enjoy the afternoon/evening.

Went back later for bait and another guy there met me at the door with the same great service. Stellar place and affordable!
