Betts Fishing Center has MOVED! - Update 3/25/08

We have moved to a new location,  but don't panic, it's only about 100 yards away, right at the Southwest Corner of Starkey Rd and 126th Avenue. 

Now you can visit us in a brand new, 6000 SF building, with a service bay for Minn Kota Trolling Motor service and installation,  more efficient rod and reel repair, and expanded inventory, including Malibu Kayaks and Accessories. 

We expect we will have some "growing pains" the first few weeks in the new store, as we find homes for all our merchandise and get new stock in, and we ask for your patience as we get things rolling.

So, please pardon our dust as we undergo construction.  We hope to provide you with a knowledgeable source for your rod building and tackle needs.
