What Angler’s Marketplace Is All About

What Angler’s Marketplace Is All About

At its core, Angler’s Marketplace was built to make it easier for anglers to find the kind of gear that’s made by people who actually fish – not in overseas factories.

Across the Northeast and beyond, there are builders, fly tiers, and craftspeople who put time and care into every lure, plug, and fly they make. Until now, it’s been hard for them to reach the people who value that work. We wanted to change that.

Our Purpose

Angler’s Marketplace connects independent makers with the anglers who appreciate their craft. Whether it’s a hand-turned metal lip, a custom bucktail, or a locally tied streamer, we believe the best fishing gear comes from people who know what it’s like to be out there — in the dark, in the wind, and in the surf.

We’re not here to compete with big-box stores. We’re here to give smaller makers a platform where quality and authenticity matter more than scale.

For Makers

If you make your own lures, flies, or tackle, Angler’s Marketplace is a way to reach serious anglers without building your own site or having to market your products from scratch. You focus on your craft — we handle the storefront, visibility, and community.

 

For Anglers

If you fish, you’ll find something here that feels personal. You can browse lures and flies built by real makers, learn about their process, and buy gear that’s actually designed for the waters you fish.

This isn’t about hype — it’s about connection. Every product tells a story, and every purchase supports the people who keep this craft alive.

Our Goal

We want to make sure American craftsmanship in our industry never fades. Angler’s Marketplace is here to help it grow — by making it easier to discover new makers, support their work, and fish with gear that means something.
