Headhunter Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Spotted a sign in a window on my way into work today! Wilson's Fly Shop will be opening on Queen Street, between Sherbourne and Jarvis (Moss Park). Don't know when, the sign doesn't say, but for all those who are Fly Fisherman, there will be a new alternative for you, if you live in downtown T.O.

MJL Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Wilsons will be moving shop from their current shop at Front and Church to the new location on Queen. I think Jim was planning to have it done by the end March. From a couple posts on other message boards, I think Wilsons may also carry items like float rods in the future. Even with the move, it's still about a 10min walk away from my school which is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFR Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Is that not the Pollock's shop? If you are a fly fisher, the staff are very knowledgeable and down to earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhunter Posted March 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Mr. JR, Pollocks has been closed for a coupla years! They were at the corner of Parialment and Queen. This shop is located about 4 blocks west of the old Pollocks shop. Terry, zippers... I thought of that, but .... HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyHerc Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Is this gonna be a larger store? The current location is nice and well stocked, but a little on the small side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Pollocks was a great store and it was too bad they left, but they sure had some excellent deals just before they closed the doors for the last time. I bought up a bunch of $25 musky baits for $5 each and all his remaining Stringeze leaders for $1 each. He was also clearing out the DownEast rod holders for $5 each but when I called to get him to hold a couple for me, he said it was 1st come-1st serve, and I missed out by an hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
