What better way to enjoy the summer than to spend a relaxing day fishing on the lake. Well, the residents of Graystone Hills are in luck because a new retailer has just opened its doors to offer family-fun recreational activities that are not to be ignored.

Basson Specialty Tackle is not your ordinary, everyday bait shop. Not only do they offer professional fishing equipment and services, but customers also have the opportunity to rent a fishing boat or kayak, lounge in the neighboring gazebo and picnic areas, even pitch an overnight tent within the camping facilities. Professional guides and a public boat launch are also available.

“There aren’t many places to do shore fishing unless you own property,” said store owner Gary New. “It’s a nice alternative for those who want a different fishing experience.”

The Lewis Creek Cove area where Basson Specialty Tackle is located is a prime place for catfish and bass fishing, according to New, and is a good spawning area that attracts fish throughout the year. Basson Specialty Tackle is located at 13260 FM 1097, west of I-45 past Cude Cemetary Road.

In conjunction with the Independence Day festivities on Lake Conroe, Basson Specialty Tackle will host its grand opening this Saturday. Stop by anytime from 8am to7pm Monday through Thursday, 6am to 9pm on Saturdays, and 6am to 7pm on Sundays. You can also visit www.bassontackle.com or call 281-732-1571 for more information.

Whether you are a pro, amateur or casual fisher looking for some summer fun, check out Basson Specialty Tackle for all your fishing needs.
