About Us

Wuhah is Southern Indiana's tackle headquarters, locally-owned in Sellersburg since 2013.

 We're anglers first, retailers second. Every product on our shelves was selected by people who actually fish the Ohio River, the Falls of the Ohio, Patoka Lake, the Blue River, and the dozens of farm ponds and tributaries that make Southern Indiana fishing what it is.

We carry live bait year-round — minnows, crickets, wax worms, nightcrawlers, red worms — alongside the rods, reels, lures, and tackle that real fishermen actually use. We're not a tackle aisle in a department store. We're the place locals come when they need something now and need it to work.

Visit us at 222 Hunter Station Road in Sellersburg. Open 7 days a week.

ACCESS POINTS

Falls of the Ohio (Clarksville) — shore, small boats & a ramp. Duffy's Landing — Jeffersonville. Jaycees Ramp — Riverfront Park, Water St., New Albany.

LICENSE & RULES

One Indiana OR Kentucky license covers the whole river. Creeks/tributaries need that state's license. No bow fishing & release all paddlefish at the Falls.

BEFORE YOU GO

Watch for barges & big wakes — stay clear of the main channel. Check river levels; rising water turns on the bite. Cut bait & livers rule for cats.
