Now that spring has officially arrived, amateur and professional fishermen alike are gearing up for the spring and summer angling seasons. Tackle boxes are being filled, lures are getting rigged, spinning reels are being spooled and folks are gassing up their boats in anticipation. However, with gradual wear and tear over time, fishing equipment and accessories does need to be replaced. If you’re in the San Pedro area and are in need of rods, bait or tackle, consider checking out The Rusty Hook, the premier tackle shop for all your fishing needs.
The shop, located on North Gaffey Street, prides itself on having a large variety of rods, reels, line, lures, tackle and accessories. The Rusty Hook’s line of rods include manufacturers such as Calstar, Daiwa, Peen, Seeker and more. Complementing their featured stock of premium inventory, the shop also offers custom-built rods and modification of reels to fit the customer’s requirements. Perhaps you don’t need a brand new rod: The Rusty Hook offers rod and reel repair service to get you back to the water.
As most experienced anglers will tell you, having a quality rod and reel is important but if the lure isn’t right, the fish won’t bite. Luckily, the shop boasts a wide collection of lures and bait for all kinds of environments and fish. Owner Alex Masumoto is an experienced long-range fisherman and can help you choose the best tackle to supplement your current personal inventory.
If you ever find something in the shop that you know an out-of-town friend or family member would love, you can bring it to the PostalAnnex location on South Western Avenue in San Pedro to have it packed and shipped to its destination. The shipping experts at PostalAnnex will be able to expertly pack and ship your rods, reels and accessories to wherever the fisherman in your life docks their boat.
