I've used Barlow's several times over the years. I have always had fast personal service. I love doing business with them. Always been great folks.

I remember going to both Barlow's (when it looked like the above pic), TC Hall's and Smitty's way back in the day with my grandfather.
They were all awesome!

Hey Jon, are you Bill's son? I spent many an hour visiting with your Dad, Bob Wilson and others in your original store and the location you're in now. I met a couple of Bill's sons but it's been so many years, I can't recall names.

I work down the street and having been going for years. I found Barlow's and the worm bar when I was looking for someplace local that had Slug-O's back in the late 80's early 90's. once I saw the place and the went to my first Spring sales event I was hooked.

Super Nice folks there at Barlow's been going for years! They have just been keeping up with the evolution of the tackle industry. You better get online or become extinct. Barlow's is still by far the best shop we have in our area, you just have to evolve with the times as well. Place your order online and go pick it up. Support local business!
