    Between the local events they have ALL of the time, the store has every possible outdoor gear you could imagine. From kayaks to backpacks to camping equipment and clothing, I wanted everything in this store. The staff was SO knowledgeable and friendly. If I lived closer I am convinced I would a regular at all of their events.

    PROS: Great prices on boats. I've looked all over town, and you won't find better prices on boats anywhere in town. I won't name the other places, but many places list their kayak prices at several hundred dollars more than Pack and Paddle. In addition, Pack and Paddle comes with a promise that they will install any boat additions for free (labor) when you buy from them. Awesome selection of gear. P&P has pretty much all the gear an outdoorsman can possibly want. They have varieties of kayaks, canoes, paddles, Go Pro cameras, camping tents, camping hammocks, and any other outdoor gear you can think of, they have it. Ultra friendly and personable. They make you feel like you're part of the team. I recommended a few people to them, and in return thanked me and told me to pick any hat in the store! Lot's of great activities. P&P has tons of awesome events and activities going on each month. Everything from hikes (kisatchie, clark creek, etc.) to kayaking trips (lake martin, chicot, etc.) and even movies & outdoorsy tutorials. Some of the cool tutorials are camping tutorials that help with creating the lightest loads for hiking, or how to get back into your kayak from in the water. They also have regular sales of used gear and boats, where people from the community can sell their boats at a decent price. CONS: While they DO offer fair prices for all of their products, some of there stuff is a little pricey -- but that's only because they only offer high-end products in a given product line. For example: their life jackets are pretty usually no lower than about $60, but that's only because they don't offer the low-end life jackets. --------------------------- All in all, they're by far the best outdoorsman's shop in town. Without question. P&P has great service, awesome selection of gear, and is just a great community to join if you love the outdoors. If you know someone who loves the outdoors, buy them a gift card to P&P.

    We were at Lake Martin, and they pointed out wildlife as well as showed us the best routes to take along the way.

    I've gotta hand it to them: they create a unique shopping experience. Tell me about the last time…read moreyou were at a big box store with a quaint log cabin and pond (with real fish) scene. The ceiling has Spanish Moss hanging from it, making you feel like you're under the canopy of soaring trees in a swamp. At Christmastime, there's a huge tree and cheerful employees at the entrance welcoming you in. You really can't hate it here as much as you try. It's a one stop shop for those with masculine urges (killing things, being one with the elements, grilling dead things)--it's unapologetically so. And this vegan city slicker is definitely not their target audience but I like to have an open mind and I do appreciate the fact that you can find many many practical things here. I'm just not the most practical person. For example, I bought my boat here (2017 Tahoe 1950). Do I even know how to drive the thing? No. But my husband drives me around in it. I hate driving. I like boats. And I can handle nature in small doses (preferably not on triple digit high humidity days). And until you have floated or zipped around these glorious Louisiana waterways, you can't tell me that you are allergic to nature! I recognize a quality store when I see one, even if walking through 20 aisles of bait will never ever be my thing.

    Bass pro lost a good sale today because the men behind the gun and knife counter would rather sit…read morethere gossiping like little girls than make a sale. Bass pro lost probably about $300 in sales today. By the way we were the only customers at the counter and still got completely ignored.
