Great inventory for all fishing needs. However the rigs I was told to buy caught one fish, the rigs I tied myself caught over 30…. Same bait, same body of water. The shop workers weren’t the friendliest either.

I'm somewhat of a beginner fisherman, but wanted to spend time surf fishing on Holden Beach. I was readily welcomed at Rod & Reel, and was quickly outfitted with gear, rigs, bait, and great advice on how to get started. Was catching fish the next day. I'll definitely be back here on our next visit to HB!

Being more familiar with fresh water fishing than surf casting, my son and I wanted to surf cast so we went to Rod & Reel. Philip was a great help. Patiently educated us on options, recommended some gear, and gave great tips. Caught fish our first couple of casts, so it was great advice! I’ll be back whenever we are in Holden Beach.

Hear me out here, yes the older guy at the counter can come off as a little grumpy at times, but with the right polite, respectful attitude he can be a huge resource. My fishing vacation was all but over with only a few in 3 days fishing. I had a couple hours left to soak a bait before the trip home so I asked him of any good spots to try. Where he sent me we were getting hits as soon as the bait hit the water almost every time. Our bag of shrimp was empty in a few hours and we had gotten nearly 20 fish.Shop was extremely stocked on live bait and tackle.

Was there and the person at the bait counter very rude. Asked for bait and he says he's not on duty after watching him help a person in front of me. Waited 15 minutes to get bait as he is watching me wait.

Just had to write this up. Thanks, Philip for your knowledge and service. I was in town for only a few hours and wanted to surf fish. Your advice about what was in season, where to find them and what type and size hooks was spot on. I'd like to return again and spend an hour chatting. Thanks again!

Awesome place and the one guy working the counter said hello to everyone and multi-tasking helping several at once.

Guy at the counter seemed a bit disinterested in helping us. Didn't look up from his task to acknowledge our question and then was a bit sarcastic. The bait was nasty, most dead. I will give him at least 2 stars because his selection of other items and prices were pretty good although a bit disorganized. We won't be back there, there are others so much more helpful to a young beginner.

This is the best bait and tackle place around. Shopped them all in about 25 mile radius. These folks got the best variety, best prices, and best customer service.
