The guys in the store really went above and beyond.bought a pair of Korkers and the rubber soles in the box were mismatched in size. They were the last in that size. They pulled a pair of the vibram soles off the rack to go with them to make sure they had a happy customer. That's a real upgrade! Great stuff!

Gig Harbor Fly Shop is my go-to for fly fishing gear and fly fishing guided trips. Blake and his guides strive to make their trips educational and enjoyable. Doug and Jack are great fly tying teachers. If you want a shop that makes sure you buy the right gear in your budget, come to the Gig Harbor Fly shop. Learning what flies to use when & where, is helpful for those of us learning the tricks of ocean, river & lake fishing. Catching a sea-run cutthroat on a fly you made in class is a big confidence builder. Thank you Gig Harbor Fly Shop.

I have taken many fly tying classes at the shop. The vibe of the shop is very good. Doug is a great instructor. He is patient and clear, which is very helpful if you are new to tying. They are also well stocked on good quality tying materials and tools.

I just completed the two day Spey immersion class in Forks. Having never casted a Spey rod I did not know what to expect. After two days of expert instruction from Blake, Aaron and Jeff, I am well on my way.The trip was well planned with a small group and personal instruction on the Hoh River.I enjoyed sitting around the campfire eating amazing dinners prepared by “expert chef” Blake and sharing stories with a group of fellow anglers who I had never met as much as the instruction/fishing.You absolutely cannot go wrong with Gig Harbor Fly Shop.

Service, selection, and value were all amazing when searching specifically for inflatable Bote kayaks and the 10x10 dock. We were walking around Gig Harbor on a "staycation" and I saw the the 10' kayak from Bote outside. I'd been considering this specific brand for a year or so but never pulled the trigger because they are so expensive. I walked inside to ask about the price. For the unit I saw it was on sale for $599. The dock was $1189 and they had both in stock. Still pricey, but on the Bote website the 10' Zeppelin is normally $1149 and was on a Labor Day sale for $689, but was sold out. I returned an hour later and purchased the kayak. Super happy with the savings and that they had it in stock! I couldn't buy the 10x10' dock this trip because I didn't have the space, but it was still cheaper than I could buy elsewhere. If I had to nitpick, when I bought the kayak they didn't mention and I didn't realize the kayak didn't include a paddle (despite one being on display with the kayak I saw outside the store). No big deal since the price I would have paid online even full price for 2x the cost also didn't include the paddle, but I had to come back later to buy one for another $150. But they had it in stock! I would definitely return. This place was awesome and had stuff in stock I rarely see at a small shop.

I was able to go on two trips with Gig Harbor. A kayak trip chasing searun cutthroat trout and a exploratory group trip fishing for musky. Aaron was my guide for the cutthroat and was absolutely fantastic helping me hone my cast and making some amazing burgers. Blake, Jack, and Aaron were leading the musky trip and made it amazing day with many large musky spotted, my personal best smallmouth, and Blake as our grill master for some lunch. Everyone at the shop is super helpful and amazing to fish with. I'm definitely coming back!

Here's a little update for this shop since the reviews are outdated. I just picked up the shittiest line on earth from here. The minute I began setting my pole up, the wire knotted up. Seems like some very cheap s**** Staff are decent, they serve the white people first then everybody else, such as myself, next. Was also very surprised they didn't have bait for one of the most popular fish in the area.
