New Grizzly Hackle owner Brendan Bannigan always dreamed of running his own fly shop

Brendan Bannigan admits it was a nerve-wracking life decision when he began considering buying a business in downtown Missoula last year at the age of 29.

He had worked at Grizzly Hackle Fly Shop https://grizzlyhackle.com/ on West Front Street as the retail manager for about seven years, and owner Dan Shepherd pulled him aside one day and said he was looking to retire.

"He was wondering what my interest level would be in purchasing the shop," Bannigan said. "I said, ‘Well, it’s a no-brainer. Let’s sit down and we’ll bat around some numbers and see what we can come up with.’ It took a couple months but we came to an agreement."
