Hook Line and Sinker Fishing Tackle, Home of the First Cast Fly Shop, was established in April of 1995. After over TWENTY FIVE YEARS in business, we have evolved on the premise that quality customer service and a non-intimidating atmosphere is as important as having a large selection of retail items.

We have the LARGEST and BEST local selection of fishing related equipment for all target fish species when it comes to BOTH Fly Fishing and Traditional Gear.

We are the leader in Fly Fishing instruction / lessons and guiding in the immediate and surrounding area.

Our Guiding Service targets Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout, Brook Trout, Musky and Smallmouth Bass and we concentrate our Fly Fishing Education on the Grand River, the Credit River, and the Conestogo River.
