History

Established in 1998.

Tackle are courteous, friendly and willing to help you get the best of your trip to Shabbona Lake. Since 1998, this has been a family operated business. On any given day you can find a Sands family member in the shop ready to assist you. Let’s start with Denny who as many of you know as the «expert» of Shabbona Lake. Denny has been highly involved in the Park and Lake since it’s beginning. You won’t find anyone who understands how to fish Shabbona Lake better than Denny. Denny’s son, Clint and daughter-​in-​law Heather, have taken over the day to day operations of the business. Clint literally grew up on Shabbona Lake and is a wealth of knowledge like his father.

Denny has passed on his love of fishing to his children (Becky, Aaron & Clint) and grandchildren. Clint both work in the bait shop along with Becky’s children (Christian and Anthony). This business is truly a family tradition that will carry on for generations. Stop in and let us help you make your trip to Shabbona Lake all you
