I'm always greeted when I walk in, and the clerks will come help you whenever you ask--seems like at some places you've got one chance to get there attention and then you're on you're own. And they are always willing to talk fishing, a privilege reserved for a few regulars and big spenders elsewhere. Merchandise selection is good for a shop of this size--and the place is expanding. I like all the fly shops in the area, but if I visit only one in the course of a trip to Grayling, usually this is it.
