ATTN NEW FISHERPEOPLE, PLEASE READ: I'm one of those…read morefishermen that's been fishing for a couple years but still know 10% of what I need to know. It seems every year and season, the bait/lures etc change since fish learn what to avoid. I am the type of person that needs to ask someone knowledgeable (Jordan) before every fishing trip on what equipment I need. I phone Jordan and tell him where I'm going to fish or I ask him where I should go fishing that day. He then provides his knowledge on how/where and gathers the items I need (specific lures/lines/weight). I then drive over/pay/pickup my order This has made every fishing trip the best. I've recently been to Como and Lafarge lake. Jordan provided the correct spoons/hooks and power bait for different applications I actually went to Larfarge lake a second time approx week later. I didn't think I would need to phone him, but I aired on the side of caution and I did. It was good I called, he said my spoons from last week won't work since the fishes diet has changed due to the insects in the lake changing. He suggested to use salmon eggs or pink spoon which I did. I caught plenty of fish and did noticed the other fisherpeople catching expect for ones using the previous weeks spoons. My next spot will be coal harbour, he recommended steel leader line since I am aiming for catching dogfish. Jordan providing some techniques on catch/release If anyone is interested in learning to fish, it's a great activity solo or with family/friends. I won't rely on YouTube or Mr.Google. The large hardware stores are zero help and asking random didn't help me. Just phone Jordan, ask where the fishing is (presently it's at the lakes and yes there are lakes in Vancouver) most fishing rods that are beginner perfect sell for $40-$90 and the bait/lures per location are approx $5-$20. Their prices are cheaper than crappy tire I think with an initial investment you will be all set for fishing and as you build your equipment and knowledge, it will be a great sport to learn I would like to thank the Pacific Angler team, though I have only been dealing with Jordan myself.

When I first walked in, I was greeted with a smile by a girl working at a welcoming station at the front. I asked where men's shoes were, and she showed me, but also informed me that a sales associate that was in our vicinity could help me. Perfect ! I knew exactly what I needed. I showed him the item on my phone, he looked up the product # on his handheld and off he went to get it for me. He quickly reappeared with box in hand! The shoes were exactly what I wanted and they were on sale for a really great price. I went to the cash area, where there were a few people in front of me. I didn't have to wait for more than a minute or two before it was my turn. The cashier was also smiling and friendly. She showed me how to maximize my points on the Triangle App, then I paid and was on my way. This was a really great shopping experience with customer service that goes above and beyond.
