Let customers speak for us
Realized they were too small for Salmon fishing
Realized they were too small for Salmon fishing so we cut the hooks off & made them into nice earrings for my daughters - would sell like hotcakes @ Christmas

very solid reel
solid reel . more “beef” than a similar sized Hardy click and pawl reel. Balances well with modern fiberglass and bamboo two hand rods
Scotty Tablet Mount
Good price at Harbour Chandler and unit sees perfect for the job and well built (as most Scotty things are).

Harbour Chandler Nanaimo online and retail fishing and marins upplies
I first found this place in person when boating and at dock in Nanaimo. Great prices and staff then. I just placed 2 orders online. Very good prices compared to what I get here at retail stores in the lower mainland. Knowledgeable staff and placing my online orders. I’ll likely buy much of my gear in the future from them.

Crab Trap
Awesome.
Well built trap.

Highly recommend.
Scotty products are the best
Scotty products are the best, I like that they continue to innovate. Love Harbour Chandler. The folks there remember who you are, cashier called me by name.
Amazing rod at this price, handles more on the medium side of medium heavy, love the colour too, so easy to see contrasted to the world around you. Boated some pretty mid August springs with it
Replacing my 3G radar
In replacing my 3G radar, the entire process was easy- HC staff were extremely helpful throughout the process. From testing the old unit to identifying a 'plug and play replacement and required adapter, everyone was available and informative. I'm almost looking forward to the next foggy day.
