I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

Dear valued customers and business partners,

Sportsmen's Direct is pleased to announce that we will be opening a new location. Many of you are probably already familiar with the property, as it was the Boater's World building that has been vacant for many years. It is located just north of the Metro Parkway (16 Mile)/Jefferson intersection. This intersection also has a gas station with marine fuel(ethonal free), a party store, oil change and a car wash. It is also much less congested with traffic than our current location, which has always been a major concerned of ours regarding all of your safety.

The new property will provide us with much needed room to expand our product selection and plenty of parking space for BOATS AND TRAILERS! We will once again have room to conduct regular seminars inside and have plenty of room outside to also host special events. Most importantly, we hope it will provide long term job security for our employees and their families.

This is a big undertaking, with many things to get done and limited resources. So, we do not have a hard date set for the actual opening. We will likely operate both locations for an unspecified time. We are shooting for a "soft opening" with live bait and seasonal retail product sales in mid to late September. We will keep you posted as we go forward.

We greatly appreciate your continued support, patience and prayers during this process.

Tight Lines,

Sportsmen's Direct Inc

Stay Tune for updates on our progress

Here is a map to where the new location is compared to our current location.

Congratulations! I will be driving by even more times with that new location. I can stop in more often. Thanks!

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

Congratulations again on your new location.  As I said in the other post, I am looking forward to becoming a more regular customer now that you will have more room to accommodate trailers with the more expansive parking lot.
