If you are happen to be in kuantan to fish, you might want to buy some supplies for your tackle box. Below are the list of the tackle shops. Some of it, I forgot the name because I don’t really care about it.
1. Tmn Tas, batu 5 Jalan Gambang
behind Tunas Manja. It is a combo of petshop, aquarium and tackle shop. You can get hooks, sinkers, line as well as rods and reels (branded and unbranded). Live bait like worms, small prawns and keli are sold, but on weekend , the chances are slim. It is a very busy shop , sometimes you had to wait for assistance. You could ask for discount on selected rods and reels.
2. Tmn Guru, batu 6 Jalan Gambang
It is a combo shop too. To me, this is the last place I go to buy sinkers and hooks. It is a bit expensive. But open on Sunday. Limited live baits. Rarely this place have any stock of worms.
3. Medan Warisan, tanah putih feri (opposite giant hypermarket)
I go to this place to look only for live small prawn as they were cheap. No worms, and small size kelis are sold at rm0.60 per fish. Sinkers and hooks are sold at a cut throat price. For eg, size 6 sinker is sold at rm0.50 pc. Where in tmn guru for rm0.45 and in taman tas for rm0.40. No rods or reels on sale.
4. Kg Padang – jln sungai lembing
This shop is belong to disable. This is my favourite spot to shop for sinkers and hooks and baits. This place got plenty of baits to choose from. Worms, perumpun, keli etc. A packet of worms cost you rm2.50. Sinkers and hooks are cheap. Size 6 sinkers are sold at rm0.30pc. This is a combo shop as well. Rods and reels are sold at an average price. Mostly Lemax . If you are looking a combo set for udang, they sell it at less than rm20.
5. TCE tackles sdn bhd. Jalan beserah.
Totally tackle shop… everything an angler need is there. But don’t expect to get any Abu Garcia from this outlet. For further information log on to

6. Anglers World Jln telok sisek , (near BCB and Bank islam)
This is a heaven for anglers. I bought my Berkley and Abu here. So many branded items can be chose at a reasonable price. Please look out for Products on clearance to get a knock out price. A variety of artificial lures can be chose as well as sinkers and hooks.
Feel free to ask for help if u need any. Sometimes, if you are lucky, there will be some second hand item on sale, and most of them are in good condition as they also do rods and reels servicing/ repair. U can order a spare part for your damage reel. Lots of accessories are on sale such as rare angler’s shirt, wading boots, sunglasses etc.
7. ROCKSON- jln besar. Opposite of General post Office/ maybank/ Hongkong bank
Another heaven for anglers. You can shop for engines, Fish finder, satellite phone, branded rods and reels etc. I’m not sure about live baits, but artificial lures are plenty.
Well, Reviews above is just based on my experiences . if you ever planning to fish in kuantan, you might want to check the place out. There are few more tackle shop here. But I dare not to write any comment on it as I never go there

for all information, Angler World no longer located at Jalan Telok Sisek, but has moved to Putra Square, Block D Malay Town, opposite to Open University.
That's all.
TCE tackles has 2 girls working there that seem to have no interest in selling anything, when they are not sitting chhatting on their mobile phones, they are busy eating, when I asked for location of certain tackle within the shop I was told "dont know" with a shrug of the shoulders, I went froim there to the shop opposite HSBC and the difference was astounding, very friendly, knowlegable and willing to spend whatever time is required to satisfy the customer
