Angler’s International Resource is the only shop for serious anglers in the western suburbs. Casey T. is a stand up guy and his passion for fishing is evident, as he helps everyone that comes in the shop with friendly and professional knowledge for novice and experts alike. He carries all the standard gear for all species pursued in the Midwest, even an excellent carp line up of bait and gear(not for me, but to each his own). What really separates this shop besides friendly and knowledge is Casey makes a real effort to get to many of the outdoor shows including the Superbowl of fishing which is the ICAST show. This keeps him informed about the innovations happening in the industry and you will find many things at this shop that are not carried anywhere else. AIR does a nice job with promoting the business with Free bait Fridays and Mono Mondays, which why on any given day you go by, Casey is always there(think he takes 1 day off a week to fish). I use to be a big Bass Pro and Cabelas guy until I found this shop a few years ago. You might pay a little more for small items as he is a small business, but buy a rod and reel or spend a little money and he is competitive and always takes good care of me. Also, he outsources reel repair, and has all the current reports on local and many WI waters. Give it a try you will be glad you did. James Risner Glen Ellyn
