The Fishing Warehouse Team
Pat Dass
Owner/Manager
FISHING WAREHOUSE owner/manager Pat Dass has been involved in the Townsville fishing tackle industry since the late 1980’s and during that time, he has gathered incredible product knowledge. Pat’s attention to detail and customer service is exemplary, so much so that customers will just continue browsing the extensive FISHING WAREHOUSE range of stock until they find he is free to help. And that queue can be a little longer than one might expect when Pat ensures each and every customer is treated to the best possible service and advice. It is fortunate then, that there are another half-dozen equally capable staff to help out!
Tedla Morgan
Rod Repair Technician
Tedla Morgan is an integral part of TEAM FISHING WAREHOUSE. Ted has been around a bit and gathered plenty of fishing experience along the way – right across the globe in fact – the Jamaican born angler only to happy to share his extensive knowledge with our equally valued customers. Ted’s fishing passion is split equally between fly-fishing pursuits and his love of ultra-light tackle. And when Ted is not waving fur & feather or listening to the sweet drag on a little spin reel, he’s most probably giving a little love to a customers rod, most repairs and modifications undertaken by the skillful rod builder.
Luke Neill
Young Gun Angler
Introducing Luke Neill, the latest addition to TEAM FISHING WAREHOUSE. A young man of already accomplished fishing skills, Luke is set for a long career in the fishing tackle industry and he gets the best possible start at Townsville’s FISHING WAREHOUSE. Luke says there’s not a species that swims that he doesn’t want to catch, and that’s already evident with his accomplishments with rod and reel. Luke is a quiet young man but yahoo’s the loudest when he’ just landed a thumping 20 kilogram mackerel or set the hooks into a meter-long barramundi. Welcome to the team Luke. We’re sure you’ll fit in just nicely.
Brittney Le Roy
Fledgling Gun Angler
Brittney, our most recent addition to TEAM FISHING WAREHOUSE, is well-known among social media circles and making a name for herself on her fishing journey. Brittney lives and breathes the outdoors and with Bowling Green Bay waters literally right on her doorstep, when she’s not setting a live bait for barra, salmon or jacks, Brittney and her partner or friends are looking to do battle with mackerel, fingermark and pretty much anything else that wants to eat their lures or baits. If it’s the friendliest of service and infectious enthusiasm that you’re looking for when walking into a tackle store, then you best seek out Brittney
Heath Kerr
Reel Repair Technician
The bloke in the FISHING WAREHOUSE reel service and repair engine room is Heath Kerr, a local man and avid angler who has spent considerable time in the fishing tackle industry. But Heath knows about plenty more than just the working bits of a fishing reel. Estuary and inshore options have been Heath’s fishing preference for as long as he can remember, but that’s all changed in recent years, Heath finding an undeniable attraction to light tackle game fishing for small to mid-size marlin and sailfish. Heath is just one of several smiling faces to greet customers when the FISHING WAREHOUSE doors swing open.
Hodgey
Expert Lure Angler
David ‘Hodgey’ Hodge, aka The Barefoot Fisherman, knows plenty about all things estuary and lure-casting. Hodgey is the bloke most suited to CELEBRITY ANGLER status among TEAM FISHING WAREHOUSE. This affable fella is well-known on the fishing and boating show circuit and especially for his freakish casting abilities – which leads to equally freakish catching abilities! Originally from Tamworth, NSW, Hodgey did time on all things freshwater including XOS Murray cod, but these days is happiest dragging any amount of mangrove jack and barramundi from North Queensland tropical creeks and rivers.
