New Fishing Tackle Store in Lynnwood, WA
I am really excited to see a new fishing tackle and outdoor gear store in Lynnwood. I am tired of driving down to the Outdoor Emporium to find the Steelhead jigs and floats, and the Salmon hooks and flashers that actually work.
The place is called (if I got it right) Elliot’s Outdoor Store. In any case it is at 18825 33rd Ave West in Lynnood. The place is so new that they still have the signs up for the Office Supply store that was there, but they are all about the outdoor and fishing gear now!
From the looks of things they are still filling the place up, but they already have the basic gear for the Salmon and Steelhead that are around the area, and I was talking with Dave Elliot the owner and he says more is on the way. This is a guy that knows his stuff too, because he used to be part owner of the Outdoor Emporium in Seattle. If anyone around here knows what fishing gear we need in a store, it is Dave.
Go in, take a look and buy something. I always like to give my business to the local stores that employ people that know what they are talking about and are as passionate about fishing as I am. So if you are looking for fishing tackle and are in the Lynnwood, Washington area, stop in and say hi. Be sure to tell them that you heard about them on here too!
UPDATE Spring 2009 – Don’t get all excited looking for this place, these guys aren’t around anymore. Sad to see them go, but I had my concerns about their location. With the loss of Joe’s we are pretty well out of fishing shops up here on the North end.
