I told them what I was there for, and they pointed the way to the second floor. All concerns were out the door at that point, except for my fear of heights, but I made it. Anyways, it took maybe all of 10 minutes, $60, and I was out the door with my goods. I'll likely go back there for all the other accessories, holsters, etc. They have an excellent selection for pretty much anything you're into, and the prices seemed to be on par with expectations. I would highly recommend.

High praise for the staff handling my recent FFL transfer. Zack and Tim in the firearms room were…read morefriendly, helpful and well informed.

The employees didn't seem to care we were there or offer to help as other stores did so while this may be local they don't provide that local friendly service.

If you find yourself in St. Bernard Parish and suddenly discover a need to enjoy the offerings of…read morethe sportsman's paradise of Louisiana then look no further than Hook & Line! So you might guess what sorts of things a place named Hook & Line offers but you would probably be underestimating this joint. Hook & Line is a VERY popular spot for folks around Chalmette, LA that need fishing and hunting gear along with offering some equipment repair services. This place actually still offers nice customer service and fair prices so you somehow actually still get good value for your hard earned money here unlike way too many other places that don't seem to want to be bothered by customers while they then proceed to charge an arm and a leg for the "experience." Overall this is a great spot to visit and leaves you in a far better mood than most of the competition. So like so many GREAT things this business Ain't Dere No More and sadly has closed...

Owned by the Macaluso's, a husband and wife who've served the Chalmette community for decades, the shop carries a full line of hunting and fishing equipment, clothing and supplies.

Hook & Line offers reasonable prices (check out the "bargain table" set up in the middle of the shop), and as a bonus, information and advice are provided to the respectful, unobtrusive sportsman, free of charge.

The Bait Shop and staff have earned a customer for life after the memories they helped cultivate that morning.
