Tomo's Tackle — Local services in Salem

AWESOME is too small a word. This place is great. Amazing Art, Terrific Tackle and Tomo. I'm a kayak fisher but NOT a very good one. However, on several occassion's Tomo has guided me and his advice has put me on fish; big fish! With Tomo I have landed some awesome fish and he has helped make me a better kayak fisher. He has advised me on soft plastics, live eels, tube and worm as well as how to catch macks with a sabiki rig (which he sells) and use those Macks to land a monster. He helped me flounder fish near Deer island and he has helped me catch Macks near Manchester. In addition to his kayak fishing prowess, he also has experience Tuna fishing and (acording to my Tuna fishing friends) he often can help them get them the best gear and advice to help them hook up with those monsters too.

He always smiles, has fresh live bait, as well as the best tackle around. He special orders just about anything and he really wants to help his customers have fun on the water and get into the fish! Also, I can bring my wife (who loves art) and she looks at all the magnificient art, while I gain knowledge and tackle from Tomo. If you want to Tackle a Big Fish, you NEED to go see Tomo. In short: This place Rocks! I generally drive way out of my way to go here. Don't go anywhere else. Tomo is the MAN!

Absolutely STOKED with my experience at Tomo's Tackle! The customer service here is beyond compare, and their product selection is truly impressive. I recently purchased a couple of Zenaq rods, and I couldn't be happier with my choice.

The entire process was seamless from start to finish. Not only did I find exactly what I was looking for in terms of high-quality fishing gear, but the items were packed securely and shipped to Hawaii within just a few days. As someone who values promptness and care in shipping, I was thoroughly impressed by their efficiency.

Tomo's Tackle truly goes above and beyond to ensure their customers are satisfied. The attention to detail in their service and the way they handle their products is commendable. It's evident that they take pride in what they do, and it reflects in every aspect of their operation.

To the team at Tomo's Tackle, Mahalo for providing such an exceptional experience. Your dedication to delivering top-tier products with incredible service has earned my trust and loyalty. I'll undoubtedly be returning for more of my fishing needs in...

Helpful employees, the best selection of lures I've seen and the best prices I've seen in a local bait and tackle shop. They're cheaper than Amazon and on par with Walmart prices, amazing considering they're a specialty privately owned store where you would expect them to do the typical 20% markup on everything. Their online website is also surprisingly well developed, accurate and well priced as well. If only it wasn't so far away and parking wasn't tricky I'd be stopping by much more often. On top of it all, they are vigilant about protecting their customers and following safety protocols during covid-19 which makes the overall experience even more...
