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.

Here at The Great Canadian Fishing Store, our mission is to give you better access to these outstanding and unique fishing products our neighbours are crafting. We're more than just another tackle store; we're here to connect you with the amazing people that are creating quality products driven by their passion for the sport and adventure of fishing.

How do we make this magic happen, you ask? Simple, we've created a place that supports local makers and manufacturers by shining a spotlight on their incredible creations. We're creating a space where Canadian anglers and outdoor enthusiasts come together to explore, appreciate, and purchase these fantastic products. When you choose to shop with us, you're not just getting gear – you're supporting Canadian talent and craftsmanship that's second to none.
