Do you offer free shipping?

Yes! We offer free shipping and handling on orders over $100.00 with a valid coupon code (that we give you inside the cart!). Your free shipping includes economy shipping and must be within the 48 contiguous United States. Certain rods, gaffs, antennas, coolers, and other oversized, bulky, or multiple package shipments may require additional charges. If you qualify for free shipping, and don’t see a coupon code in your cart, contact us by email (sales@tackledirect.com) or by phone (toll-free 1-888-354-7335).

Do you offer a military discount?

Yes, we do! We're really proud to be a family-run business in the United States of America and recognize that our very existence wouldn’t be possible without the daily sacrifices of our men and women in uniform. If you’re a military veteran, please contact us by email (sales@tackledirect.com) or by phone (toll-free 1-888-354-7335) to secure your discount.

How do I use a promotion / coupon code?

Promo code – lucky you! There are two opportunities to enter your promotional code.

• CART: If you are on the cart page, click on “Enter Promotional Code” inside the right-hand “Order Summary” box. Enter your code, and hit “Apply”.

Do you have a price match guarantee?

At TackleDirect, we make every effort to provide you with the lowest prices, while adhering to the manufacturers' minimum retail pricing. We will match any price offered by any retailer with a brick and mortar physical address. We do not match eBay or eCommerce stores who do not maintain a physical address. If you find an identical product at a lower advertised price and in stock on another site that matches the criteria above, we'll match the price, as long as the item does not have a set minimum retail price by the manufacturer. Simply contact us via telephone 888.354.7335, or email: (sales@tackledirect.com) for pre-authorization.

How will you ship my fishing rods and poles?

At TackleDirect, we're anglers just like you. That's why we treat your rod like we treat ours -- with the utmost attention to package strength and security when shipping it.

We specifically pack the tip of the rod in multiple layers of bubblewrap so that it doesn't roll inside the rod tube. We also wrap the base of the rod to further limit movement in transit. Then, we load the rod into a custom-designed, sturdy, paperboard tube. Watch to see exactly what we mean.

Backordered items will be marked by a red “BACKORDER” inventory status on the website. Occasionally, discrepancies occur. If the item you ordered is backordered, we will notify you via e-mail or phone right away.

We do not have backordered items in stock. Backordered items must be ordered by a vendor or supplier and then shipped to TackleDirect for processing. The item may be backordered for a number of reasons, including high product demand, seasonality, or general lack of stock. While we will provide you with an estimated ship date via email, these estimates are subject to change. We promise to process and ship your order the same day it is delivered to TackleDirect.

Please note:

• For most backordered items, you will not be charged in the original purchase for any additional shipping charges that may result.
• TackleDirect reserves the right to cancel any order for a backordered item under $25.00.
• If your purchase is being shipped domestically, we will ship your in-stock items first and your backordered items when they come in. You will be charged for shipping only once.

All credit card payments require the cardholder’s billing address (where the credit card statement is mailed), shipping address, phone number, card number, expiration date, credit card issuing bank name, and bank phone number for authorization purposes. Complete address verification is necessary before order shipment.

Do I have to pay international taxes and duties?
