The service is pretty dang good and is something anyone in this area should try. They have a good to mid range selection of tackle with a lot of the baits being made across the street. I think I have been here close to a hundred times and just can't stop going. Id give this place 10 stars if I could it's just amazing. All of the reviews Im seeing are unreasonably ranked one person is complaining about a shipping charge and everyone else seems to like it but rate it 3 or 4 stars.

I was in just last week, and the place was fairly busy with lots of fisher persons admiring the latest rod and reel and talking shop. There is lots of stuff to choose from if you're in the business. Even though I don't fish, I enjoy looking around anyway. I did find a cool Berkley Mask and otherwise passed on their still impressive clothing line.

If you're looking to pawn of some crap for quick cash, The Pawn Shop in Spencer Iowa is not the…read moreright place for you. However, if you're looking for a place in Northwest Iowa to buy games, or hang out and play some games, then it's definitely the right place for you! With a name that is perhaps a "tad" too clever for it's own good, The Pawn Shop is the kind of gaming store that you wouldn't expect to find in rural areas. Yeah, you might be able to find them in places like Sioux City, Sioux Falls, Ames, Des Moines, Omaha, or Minneapolis... but what is the gamer to do when you live 2 hours away from any of those places? The Pawn Shop is the answer to this dilemma for gamers in Northwest Iowa and surrounding territories. It's run by two gentleman by the name of Kevin and Grant who, without a doubt, have a passion for games of all kinds and who want to provide a place for others to gather and play games. Their fees are more than fair for the services they provide, and are willing to go out of their way to find a game item you might be looking for - if they don't have it on hand. I had them order me a colossal Golem Arcana figurine awhile back, and unfortunately it arrived to them damaged. It took a bit of time, but they got it straightened out and replaced through their distributors. So if you're interested in picking up some new games, or perhaps find others to play some games with, I suggest you check out The Pawn Shop.

The space used to be occupied by a Curve's gym that Gayle used once during one of our Summer trips. The owner is Kathyrn Buckley, who used to run a similar enterprise in Kansas City.

I've visited twice this summer and came away the last time with a nice wood desk/clock piece from Tim Anderson of Twilight Zone Designs. Of course, I was tempted by other items, that there's always next time.

Let me preface this review with... I do not fish…read more That being said. We were in town on vacation and my kiddos wanted to take a stab at fishing. We have two rods and a basic tackle box but needed some bait and new bobbers. Yelp told me we needed to go to Stan's Bait Shop, so we did! We popped into this 50+ year Milford mainstay and were not disappointed. While I have no idea what fish we were aiming to catch, or what bait/tackle would be ideal-- there was great selection for those who are more fisher-savvy than I. Pricing seemed reasonable. The staff was helpful. Open daily-- pop in to Stan's Bait Shop for your fishing needs.

What really makes the place stand out though is the service. Mason is always on point--super easy to talk to, knows exactly what's been working on the water, and actually helps you dial things in instead of just ringing you up and sending you out the door. It's the kind of place where you feel like a regular even if it's your first time in. Good people, good advice, and everything you need to have a successful day fishing. Definitely worth stopping in before you head out.
