Rude and disrespectful. I was trying to buy one album before closing to, had it in hand with money, had checked in earlier about closing time, and the clerk was ringing someone up. The maybe owner came in from outside and told me to get out in the most condescending tone I've heard from someone trying to do business.
There are other shops with the same shit, check those out instead.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Connor S.Brooklyn, NY01Oct 13, 2022
Bought a record here that turned out to be a bootleg, that was overpriced as is, and the lady inexplicably surcharged me 20% on top of it all

If you're looking for fresh bait, don't go here!
They only had clams today and the clams were frozen.
Very disappointing especially since we drove about 30 mins out of the way to go there.
I should have called ahead.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Rafael N.Perth Amboy, NJ4262May 17, 2021
I was surprised to experience the total opposite of what I am reading on this platform. first when I got there I was like where the hell is the fish store...it was at the back of this vintage furniture store. Anyways the kind gentleman who attended me is extremely knowledgeable of the sport. I brought my own rod and reel in so he can set me up which he successfully did within minutes for pennys. This guy knows his stuff!

Awesome shop - amazing, unique vintage pieces from wall decor to seating to tables and lamps. The record selection is also outstanding and, from what we've purchased, all great quality. High price points but the pieces are all things I've never seen anywhere else (other than the odd rare Jonathan Adler piece, which I've seen but never been able to find!). I'll be back again and again.

Only reviewing this place for its records. I feel bad even spilling the secret in public, but I must: This has got to be one of, if not the best record stores I've ever visited. Truly a gem. Amazing balance between selection, price, and quantity. I went in looking for jazz and left with 5-6 rock records, all of which were priced extremely well and not the easiest to find.
I joke that you can judge a record store by how many Herb Alpert albums are in jazz, and how many Frampton records are in rock. This place had no more than one of each, but had loads of other classics, old folk and gospel records, organ jazz, rare/live bootlegs, thrash/metal, rap, reggae, and some quality cheapo records too. The owner, whose name I forget, knocked several bucks off the total bill and spent time on discogs proving the records were priced fairly (which was totally unnecessary but a really nice touch). Love this place.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Howard C.Seattle, WA232610Jul 6, 2010First to Review
This place has an excellent wealth of carp fishing tackle. From extend-able rods, to hooks, and yes, even imported carp bait.
The owner Robert, has extensive knowledge on carp fishing within the State of NY.
This is THE store I go to, when I'm looking to target carp. While it is considered a nuisance fish here in the US, it is a sport fish in all other countries.
Located on the border of Queens & Brooklyn, in the Williamsburg area. It is a bit out of the way for me to get there, either driving or public transportation from Queens. However, this place is worth a visit if your looking for any particular carp related equipment.
That's not to say that they don't carry anything else. Dream Fishing Tackle also has plenty of saltwater and various other freshwater fishing tackle available. But to my knowledge, this the only store in within the 5 boroughs that actually carries equip/tackle primarily for carp.
If the owner isn't busy, be sure to approach him regarding tips and techniques, on when, where and how to target carp.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Sam M.New York, NY119224Aug 19, 2018
It's an interesting concept, selling fishing supplies, vintage furniture and vinyl all under one roof but I'm very much for it. I don't fish so I can't say much on that end other than it looks like they have a large variety of product (and it gives the store a slight smell, nothing really bad though). Furniture wise they have some great stuff and the prices are better than average compared to other vintage furniture stores in the area. But to me where this place really hits a home run in the vinyl. They have good variety and a lot of popular stuff that anyone would like to add to their collection. If for nothing else, I'll be back for some more vinyl.
