Prepare for Outdoor Adventure
Great adventures begin with the right gear & local knowledge Ron Adams | Pro Staff Verle’s llc Wow, what a wet winter. We here in Western Washington are accustom to rain but, man, did it rain! I am glad to see the days lengthen and catch a glimpse of that bright disc in the sky. Trees are budding, early spring flowers are blooming and the call of the wild is starting to surge in our hearts and with this, the anticipation of getting outdoors has now become a reality. Boating, fishing, clamming, and hiking await for us to participate and enjoy the freedom from the wet and dark Northwest winter. Where does one start? Everything in the outdoors requires preparation to make the most out of your experience and the better prepared the better your memories will be. Whether boating, hiking or harvesting – you will be better off talking to knowledgeable people who love to share and get you on your way to an epic spring and summer. Verle’s Sporting Goods in Shelton is a great place to find friendly and knowledgeable locals. The store has all the goods to prepare you and your family for a lifetime of fun and cherished memories. Verle’s has been in business for 72 wonderful years and has honed its knowledge and inventory to serve the needs of the Pacific Northwest outdoor adventurer. The sporting goods store carries everything you need for boating, fishing, shooting sports,
clamming, hiking and more. The boat selection is custom fit for the area and carries a complete line of boater safety gear such as life vests for infants up to the largest adults, flares, horns, fish-finders, GPS and VHF radios to name a few. Need repairs? They also have a full service and parts department servicing Yamaha, Suzuki, Mercury and more to keep your boat in tip top working order so you can get the most out of your spring and summer fun. They also carry a plethora of fishing gear that works very well in our local waters. We boast such brands as Okuma, Shimano, Lamiglas, Tica, Yakima Bait, Blue fox and the list goes on and on. Clammers will find rakes, shovels, clam bags and razor clam guns from Willapa Marine and the coveted Murffs Claminator clam guns that make clamming so much easier. Local crabbing is up in the air right now but Verle’s is fully prepared with a full line of crabbing gear as well.
Hikers can find wonderful Maps of the Olympics and surrounding area from Greentrail Maps to help them reach their destination safely and get additional ideas for trails suitable for multi-day backcountry adventures or a fun day exploring our amazing trail system.
Be sure to stop into Verle’s and let them help you with your preparation of what could be your best spring and summer outdoor adventure.
Shooters will find ammo, targets (both traditional and recreational), holsters and more. We have everything from rimfire, centerfire and muzzleloader to make your shooting sport the best and safest it can be.
