Reviewers describe a large selection of fishing gear, with one saying the shop has almost anything an angler could ask for.
The shop carries premium Japanese rods and a good collection of fishing gear.
Staff helped one customer choose a jigging setup, which is useful if you are unsure how to match your gear.
Reviews mention branded fishing equipment, including Shimano, Rapala, Nomad, Yazuri and Costa products.
Several customers describe the prices as reasonable, including on high-end equipment and branded tackle.
Customers repeatedly describe the staff as knowledgeable, supportive and willing to advise rather than simply push a sale.
A customer says the shop quickly and honestly delivered an order to a friend from abroad.
Use metro. Parking can be difficult, so consider the metro; one review says the shop is right in front of the RAS metro station.
Ask prices. Ask for the price of each item before deciding, because one customer reported that products had no price tags.
Request guidance. If you are setting up for jigging, ask the team for help matching the setup; a reviewer specifically found this guidance useful.
Check spooling. If you request line spooling, check the work and reel before leaving because one customer reported a broken line and damaged reel.
Check rods. If rods are your priority, ask what is currently available: a review praised the lures but found rod options limited.
Ask availability. For a particular brand or model, confirm availability before travelling; reviews praise variety but one customer said the shop lacked variety.

Finding a parking space near the shop is a recurring complaint.
One customer reported paying 15 AED for spooling, then having the line break and the reel become damaged.

The Bottom Line
Al Fajr Marine Trading is a fishing store in Deira aimed at anglers looking for tackle, marine supplies and branded equipment. Reviews mention premium Japanese rods, Rapala and Nomad lures, and Shimano products, while staff advice on a jigging setup can help if you are building or refining your kit. The range is repeatedly described as broad, with saltwater assortments and sports-fishing accessories available.
Pricing is a major attraction. Customers describe branded and high-end gear as reasonably priced, and one review says the shop supplied branded equipment at wholesale prices. A delivery request to a friend abroad was also handled honestly and quickly, according to one customer.
There are practical annoyances to plan around. Parking in front of the shop is repeatedly described as difficult; one reviewer suggests using the metro because the shop is right in front of the RAS metro station. Another complaint is the lack of price tags, so ask about costs as you browse.
If you request spooling, inspect the line and reel before leaving: one customer reported a 15 AED spooling charge followed by a broken line and damaged reel. Rod choice may also be narrower than the lure selection.
