Welcome Friend,

Canada is home to some of the most beautiful lakes and river systems, and with that to some of the best freshwater fishing in the world. It's also the home to some incredible and passionate makers and creators of quality fishing products and outdoor gear. And that's where our mission begins.

Our Beginnings

It all started with a simple observation: Canada is home to an incredible pool of talented makers and manufacturers crafting some seriously amazing fishing gear. From beautifully designed lures that are built for Canada's several native species, to meticulously handcrafted rods that stand up to the toughest challenges, these local creators are redefining what it means to be a Canadian angler. But, there was a catch (pun intended): these top-notch products were often hidden gems, overshadowed by big-name brands.

Our Misson

    Welcome to The Great Canadian Fishing Store! I am an avid outdoorsman and fishing enthusiast, and my passion for these activities is what led me to start this online store.

    Hi there! Some of my most cherished memories were those of being around water and nature. Whether it was running off to a creek or pond as a kid, or escaping the 9-5 to a river or lake, that’s where I had always found a place to centre myself and re-connect with nature. Those moments made me realize it’s something worth sharing, and I’d like for everyone to have the opportunity to connect with nature and experience the same joy and excitement that I do every time I cast a line.
