Super helpful picking out a fly rod, reel, and line for salmon river. Steve was friendly, informative, and provided me what I needed without up selling.

Incredibly helpful group of fellow anglers and outdoorsmen here! These folks will explain the details of anything outdoors, and help you find the gear that fits you as an individual! I went in with a desire to upgrade my gear and walked out with a plan to show up each and every time I get paid! I will never go to dicks sporting goods or any other outdoors shop for anything I could buy here instead. If you're considering going into the outdoors, starting a new hobby, or already am a pro, consider stopping by for a chat. You will not find better quality anywhere else!

Walked in 5 minutes before closing time and they took the time to help me select the right reel for my rod. He thought me about differ weights and purpose of line and also showed me how to tie everything properly. I’ll be buying everything I need here.

I have a strong preference to support local. This place is everything you could ask for. It is well staffed with super friendly and knowledgeable people. I wanted to start new adventures with my twin daughters backwater canoing and black dog outdoors allowed that to happen. Thank you.

I put a post on Facebook asking for a good spot to fish in the Albany area. I was traveling and looked to take advantage of my time in town. Scott from Black Dog told me to stop by the shop and he would point in to some local spots. Let me tell ya, he wasn't lying. He took his time to show me some great spots, reviewed my gear and offered his suggestions on how to fish the area. Not only that but the store was nice and stocked with a mix of everything. I couldn't be more happy for the help. Next time I'm in the area I will be back!

I've passed this store a few times and recently decided to stop in. I'm happy that I did! Besides being pleasantly surprised by the outdoor gear selection (especially the fly-fishing), I felt very welcome by the friendly people working there ( I assume it's the owners?). I was greeted immediately and had a pleasant conversation about the store selection and fly fishing. The owner also told me that they offer occasional Fly-Fishing 101 classes for FREE and other events in and around the region.Fly-fishing can be intimidating at first, so if you're a person that is looking to get into it, or if you're just looking for a great, friendly, local outdoor business, I would highly recommend stopping by and having a conversation with the people here. I know I'll be back again for sure.

The shop had a specific Simms vest that I could not find anywhere. I emailed the store on a whim and received a response immediately that they would set the vest aside for me. My fiancé and I were amazed at the selection of gear for fly fishing, paddling, hiking, and shooting. The staff were extremely helpful and courteous. This area has needed a shop like this for a long time, highly recommended!
