    A simple question ...or so i thought!

    Forgive me if this topic has been raised in the past but perhaps you could settle a debate that arose the other night whilst in conversation with some angling friends. Whilst in the pub a conversation began regarding a recent fishing trip and the phrase ' upper Severn' was used. This seemed...

    Back in the 80s...

    Back in the 80s... Every few months in the Angling Times there would be a tackle company that would produce a similar 'tabloid paper' that would be, I'm guessing, one of the first angling mail order brochures.

    Reel service centres

    Does anyone know of a reasonable reel service centre? In the past I've sent reels down to the tackle box in Kent but to be honest I've never had one back repaired.

    Fox international...selling direct?

    I've just been on the fox website and was somewhat surprised to see that their items now have 'but it now' prices. I only had a quick brouse and selected a item to purchase and by all accounts it went into my basket then to checkout like any other online retailer. I didn't however complete a...

    Eric's angling

    So... Eric's has gone the same way as fosters... Climax... And so many others. I don't have anything against Angling Direct. Though I'm not exactly comfortable with all the independents joining these ranks. I suppose I should be happy that the business is still going as a viable concern...
