Mr. Barker,
I believe I actually was there the same day as this photoshoot (Either that or Steve and Ken need to broaden their wardrobe
) I assume you were there yesterday (Sat 20th)? I can never leave that place with just what I came for and I never leave feeling fulfilled with what I got! Too much good stuff

Too much good stuff"The real truth is, convincing a fish to strike is like playing string with a cat: the exact size and color of the string is probably less important than how you wiggle it. And little cats are easier to fool than big ones." - John Gierach

I agree, one of the best fly shops in the country. The inventory is awesome but it's the friendly courteous way they treat customers, and visitors, that I like most…

Holy crap! So my childhood memory is legit! I remember going into the Spot when it was a general tackle shop. I bought this little yellowtail lapel pin. I could never figure out where that place went...
Awesomness. Glad you guys are there. I don't know what I would do otherwise. You should open a second location on the south side of the hill
