About Tackle Village
Hey, my name is Rick Wallace. I have fished for a range of species across the world and written for a number of fishing magazines and appeared in fishing films.
I founded Tackle Village in 2020 to share my knowledge and love of fishing and I am proud to say we’ve been featured in a range of media outlets including Yahoo, Men’s Health, Popular Mechanics and BoatUS.
