Re: Service I have encountered at different tackle stores!
You guys are absolutely right. I generally head into Anaconda for just for terminal tackle when they have sales as they are the closest to me. But for reels i always head to CA Bentleigh or Dandenong.
Cobby, you're spot on for the Quickfire. I had my suspicion on the rebadged catana hence why i couldn't resist the $100 compared to the $179 catana whilst i was doing my X'mas shopping. Anyhow Lesson learnt.
Big Gav, yes you learn something new and my money will be going to local tackle stores from now on.

Re: Service I have encountered at different tackle stores!
Having just moved to the area I've found Armadale Angling was good service & advice. Trev is a good bloke who knows his stuff and helped me out - he actually sold me on a rod that was a fair bit cheaper than I was looking to spend (and so far it's proving to be a great stick). I've been back there a couple of times.

Best in the West is Hooked on bait and tackle in Hoppers Crossing.

You can see the difference between a proper tackle store and a BCF

Re: Service I have encountered at different tackle stores!
I have been in hooked on a few times lately had a few chats with big mick he knows his stuff and gives good advice, but he is a tad dear I wanted to buy a shimano sustain he was $75 more than I got it from motackle delivered. But on saying that if you know your prices do a bit of research I don't mind paying a bit extra.

Re: Service I have encountered at different tackle stores!
Here in traralgon customer loyalty is a big thing. I've always gone to get wet and in turn I feel like a very valued customer. I could cheap out every now and then and go up the road to BCF but any excess I pay in the local stores is always paid back in advice, or out of the blue discounts.

Re: Service I have encountered at different tackle stores!
To be honest I don't think your BCF store will be much cheaper...some prices I see at the local BCF are expensive. Usually I only purchase items there when they have a sale. Good to see you are happy with your local tackle store.scott__henning wrote:Here in traralgon customer loyalty is a big thing.
