We are an authorized Orvis dealer and carry a full line of Orvis tackle and accessories.  We also stock other top quality tackle brands such as Winston, Simms, Ross, Abel, Cortland and Scientific Anglers.   We are proud that our shop is one of the most completely stocked in the Midwest.  It's often been said, "If we don't have it, you don't need it!"

Our fly selection is perhaps the most extensive in the Midwest with hundreds of patterns, many of them custom and specific to our Au Sable system and the region.  The emphasis in the Pro Shop is on personal service and knowledge of the river.  The shop is open daily during the season from 8:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. Many of our customers call during the off season for those special tackle needs, and we ship via UPS daily.
