About PL Outdoorsman

PL Outdoorsman sits along US 79 in Buchanan, a few miles west of Paris Landing State Park and the Tennessee shoreline of Kentucky Lake. That location puts the shop directly in the path of anglers, campers, hunters, and other outdoor travelers heading toward the lake and surrounding public lands. Inside, the selection reflects the variety of ways people spend time outdoors in this part of Tennessee.

Fishing is a major part of the store. PL Outdoorsman carries rods and reels from brands such as Shimano, G-Loomis, Lew's, Abu Garcia, ACC Crappie Stix, and Todd Huckabee, along with hundreds of baits and lures for crappie, bass, catfish, bluegill, and other species. Local anglers will recognize names including Bobby Garland, Crappie Magnet, Mr. Crappie, Bonehead, and Crappie Monster among the tackle selection. Live bait and coolers round out the basics for a morning on Kentucky Lake.

Bowfishing has a particularly strong presence here. Equipment from AMS, Muzzy, MegaMouth, Cajun, Innerloc, and other bowfishing brands is stocked alongside arrows and accessories. PL Outdoorsman also serves as a gathering point for the Kentucky Lake bowfishing community, hosting a tournament series from its Buchanan location.

The store extends well beyond fishing. Archery supplies, deer blinds and feed, hunting clothing, calls, decoys, camping supplies, coolers, fish fryers, grills, fire pits, and other outdoor equipment fill out the selection. New and used golf carts are another notable part of the business, with minor repairs, service, and welding work available through the shop.

Paris Landing State Park is only about six miles away, while Kentucky Lake, rural Henry County, and the southern reaches of Land Between the Lakes provide plenty of reasons for outdoor gear to be part of everyday life here. PL Outdoorsman fits naturally into that setting: a locally rooted shop where someone heading toward the water, woods, campground, or hunting property can make one more stop before the day begins.
