Great service, friendly and knowledgeable about all things fishing.
Billy has always been a gentleman to me and my kids.Very helpful and knowledgeable, with good prices and products.
Came in as a newbie, Bill set up my rod and talked me though a bunch of beginner knots/ tips & tricks, and really helped me feel confident when leaving the store. Will for sure come back and do all my future fishing shopping here.
Fantastic local bait and tackle shop.They put old world craftsmanship into their specialty rigs. After talking to them, they put pride into their work.Picked up a few fluke rigs that they make on site; they worked really well.Glad I went there, rather than a big box retailer.Friendly, knowledgeable advice goes a long way to a great fishing experience!
Great advice and very friendly.
Bill is amazing shop owner and a must visit in the area for anyone looking for fishing gear or bait.I walked in a random day with my rod and two jigs I had purchased. I let Bill know I was a total newbie and didnβt have a clue how to tie the rig. He taught me how to tie my own fluke rig and tied one for me. He charged me nothing!!! What a great guy!!!!Go to Combs. You wonβt regret it.
Bill is a man of his word. Told me he would get a reel in for me in 3 days. 3 days later my reel was ready to pick up! Talked for a little and was on my way. Stand up guy and a great shop. A+
Informative and honest... Billys been treating my salty little girl with the utmost respect for 10 years. β€
Iβm not into fishing but my brother in-laws are I buy all their birthday and holiday gifts their every year. I also buy my self a jacket every time I go in their. They have a huge selection on everything that you might need. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I also think their prices are very reasonable
Really friendly and informative man behind the counter. Prices are average but Ill definitely go back there because of the friendliness and customer service
Helpful staff, fairly priced and very knowledgeable and even know what was biting ... Told him were fishing the canal at my uncles house recommend the bait and hooks ... Low and behold had a great time reeling in a dozen or so snappers just like he said ... We threw them back to grow up, but had fun made memories thanks to Combs
Billy was very knowledgeable and kind. Doesnt hessatate to give you information. They pack there own bait and sell it at competitive prices. Go here!
The owner couldnt be more knowledgeable and nice. I was looking for a fillet knife and he recommended just what I needed to get the job done. Its rare that you get this level of service anymore...Highly recommended!
Billy & Denise makes it a very pleasurable experience every time we go to the store. Billy always gives great advise and supplies us with the best bait and tackle around! Love them!!
If you cant find what you need at this bait shop...you dont need it.This place has all the basics covered and the advice that Billy provides is gospel.I go out of my way to get my bait here. Always will.
Great place to obtain fishing gear and get knowledge about fishing.
Darn good bloodworms, check out this whopper. Get in there and talk turkey about how to land a something with gusto. Suns out, buns out, tails up, rail meat. Make it rain on them foes.
Great store offering decent deals.
If you fish for Fluke, this is the store for you.Youll never find a better selection of jigs, teasers and specialty rigs to try.A helpful store captain will be there to teach you the techniques to use them.
Billy and team are amazing. Lots of great fishing knowledge and quality equipment
I am a disabled senior citizen. Today I stopped by at Combs B&T for the first time where I met Bill the owner. I told him I was looking for a light/medium boat rod with a long butt handle. The old saying they dont make em like they used to comes to mind with these new fishing rods these days. For whatever reason most handles are shorter then rods made years ago?When I fish off a boat I like to keep the handle tucked way under my arm and my hand on the reel. Bill suggested that if I cant find a rod with the handle I like he could put on an extension for me. I have shopped B&T shops from Emmons Ave. in Brooklyn to Montauk Point and NEVER have I had such friendly service as I had today.Because I have trouble with my breathing, Bill brought out a chair from the back so I could sit. That makes me feel this man really cares about his customers, these days thats hard to find.We got to talking about fishing lines mono vs braided and Bill brought out a diagram showing me how lines differ using different weights with mono and braided line. I was talking with him for a good hour or so as his customers came and went. I bought a beautiful rod there today and Bill is going to add on about 3-4 inches to the handle, when I go back to pick up the rod I will bring my reel, so Bill can put fresh line on it.I look forward to Bills call to pick up the rod. I walked out of Combs B&T today feeling as if I ran into my long lost friend. Today I had a great day thanks to Bill at Combs B&T !!! Joe G.
Awesome guy super helpful great fishing stuff to buy
Great place for everything fishing
Great place to shop. Very helpful and friendly
Denise and Billy are the best.Very knowledgeable, friendly, and so accommodating.
Great tackle shop
Super friendly service and gave us great advice on where/when to go fishing !
An avid and longtime fisherman, Over the years, Ive been to all the shops on LI. They all have the same tackle, same prices, nice guys. But Combs is the only place I will ever go. Billy always shows me the spots to go to, pulls out his map and points me in the right direction. Hell recommend a different lure than the one I picked, even if its cheaper. He was a fishing captain back in the day and has been running this shop since the 80s- this guy knows his stuff. He knows the channels, the hot spots, what bait to use to reel them in, and always has on his scanner/radio checkingnin with all the guys out on the water and listening to where the fish are biting, what the hot spots are, and where theres no fish to be found- hes got the inside track and is literally knows in real-time where the action is. He helped my neice for forty five minutes, showing her how to use a pole for the first time, how to use bobbers, he was so great with her. All my buddies go there and refuse to go anywhere else, even if they have to drive a little bit of a distance. In my humble opinion, best tackle shop on Long Island- not because of what they sell, but the tips, tricks, info and time he gives to each and every customer that walks through that door. Lifetime customer for life, right here.
