The Gills:
- If you fish Kootenay Lake, you'll want to stop here first. We carry the widest selection of tackle and fishing equipment for absolutely miles around and if we don't have, you want it and it's possible we'll bring it in for you. We also have emergency items for boating. We pride ourselves on the competitive pricing and good service we offer. No fisherman (generic man) is unimportant to us. If you do well, so do we. We want to see you succeed at the wonderful sport so will try to be of as much help as we can. We learn from asking questions and would love to hear your fish story.

You can send or receive a fax through us and we're the local Purolator agent too (drop off & pick up). We try to stay up to date on tourist and charter information to make your stay in our area more enjoyable. Pick up a ferry schedule or a local to do brochure while you are in the store.
The Gas Station:
- The biggest change is the fact that we now have fuel and sell basic automotive products. Looking for a quick jug of chainsaw oil and a windshield wiper?... I think I saw it in the automotive section.
.....and yes we are still definitely the fun store at the Ferry Landing, carrying something in everyone's price range. (Even Fairy Princesses )
