  Ken, one of your associates, helped my son choose his fishing rod, and the experience was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely helpful. He took the time to understand our needs, listened carefully, and shared his expertise in such a warm and approachable way. He truly made us feel welcomed and went above and beyond to help my son pick out a birthday gift he had been hoping for—something that will be a special keepsake for years to come. He is the one who helped us.

  I had a great experience in the Nanaimo store with Madalen. She is very knowledgeable. I bought a Dogtra dog collar and appreciate her explaining the features to me. 😀
