Valley Rod & Gun

This is the only place in the area that I’ll go for my fishing needs. The guys are always quick to help with and questions, and will share their wealth of knowledge. They want you to have fun on the water and catch fish. When shopping for a rod and reel, they always listen to me about my wants and needs, and find a setup within my price range and don’t try to sell me something I don’t need.

Im a new hunter and had a million questions about everything. They staff was patient and wanted me to find the best fit for me. Kudos to Krystal for being patient, and ultimately getting me everything i wanted/​needed!

Took my my Remington 700 to have my scope base and rings mounted along with my Nikon scope. Merritt that works in the gun section put my parts on for no fee. He did a great job while I watched him put it together. A big extra was that the rifle was bore sighted on the spot all for no charge. Now that is great customer service. Krystal, the cashier was also helpful choosing a case for it. All in all, great customer service experience and best value in town for all your shooting needs from advice, reloading equipment, ammo, supplies and accessories. «The one stop shop» for everything.

This is the première tackle shop in the Fresno area. They carry a wide range of gear that’ll meet the needs of novices to pros. The staff are friendly, professional, and they KNOW how to fish. I would say their main attribute is their willingness to help if there were any issues. Speaking from experience, not all tackle shops are as courteous and pleasant as VR&G. This shop deserves the Valley’s full support.

This is our go to store for hunting and fishing supplies. The people greet you as you walk in. Sales people are knowledgable and know their stuff whether it be for fishing or hunting.
Every time I need something for birthdays or Christmas’ I stop by here. My husband loves anything I buy for him here. They have great prices and lots of sale items. We love to support the local economy so we will definitely be coming back.

Hands down the best place to go if you need bass fishing gear. They have the best selection of reels and they are the only place in town to carry Dobyns Rods. If you want good service and fair prices this is the place to go. Merritt or Adam can really help you with gearing up for your next fishing trip. They helped me a lot and the information they gave me actually worked. In addition they have a great selection of Gun Powder which is hard to find these days. I plan to shop there as long as they continue to be the best in the area. Thanks Guys

Not exactly sure about the «selection» issues with the other reviewers but the part of the store that I needed — the gun section, was very well stocked with high quality lines like Hornady and RCBS and at more than reasonable prices. Also, there’s an entire wall length of the store devoted to reloading components that are sold dirt cheap and the things that aren’t dirt cheap are still being sold at fair prices. They had powder too although not the most common stuff like CFE and Tightgroup but that’s because NO ONE has it. lol but they did have Accurate and some others that are workable. If you are into reloading check it out because they have everything from press kits to bullet pullers, brass tumblers and die sets. And they won’t gouge you or be rude to you like the men in green at certain big sporting good stores around town. These guys are super friendly and are even training a female worker there in the ways of gun knowledge which I think is great! I couldn’t care less about the fishing side lol but the gun side makes the 20 minute drive through traffic worth it. I have been there several times making ti a point to ask questions to see responses and they know their stuff or will get someone for you who does. Much better than being fed a line of BS from someone who just can’t admit they don’t know. I’ve done one return of an item I purchased that was incorrect. The exchange went smoothly and there were no issues. It’s just a really great place to get your supplies!

Very helpful staff, little selection.

I was referred here by two other large sporting goods stores. They have everything a fisherman could ask for and more! Merritt helped me chose a casting reel. Very friendly, helpful & knowledgable staff. Will definitely go back and refer friends & family.

This is a great example of a local business that deserves our patronage. I have gone there over the years just a couple of times a year. I’m always impressed with their ammo and reloading components, they must have the best stock of anybody around. Most importantly every time I go in there they are friendly and helpful, it’s a very mellow atmosphere.
Fall of 2011 I was scheduled to go to Utah to hunt, I could not find ammo for my uncommon rifle ANYWHERE, not a single online dealer had it, and in town only Rod and Gun came through, they had one box. When i went to pick it up they even gave me a price break on it.
Years back I even had them handle a couple of gun purchases for me, they never gouged me even though I bought them from guys online and just had them process them for me.
I’ll be going there Friday or Saturday to pickup some reloading stuff that I could get a little cheaper online, but wouldn’t get the enjoyment of visiting a great local shop.
