how many lads are sick of walking into a shop only to see the same old crap thats been there for years ,
the tackle shops deffinatley need a new lease of life ,
out with the old and in with the new , there is the money still about to buy good tackle , just look at a sci meet

personaly speaking i worked in dunlaoghaire angling a for the last 2 summers , and i often asked my boss why he didnt sell the higher end gear? simply speaking it was too expensive to sell, we were able to buy it off our wholesalers for only a fraction more than i could get it from the likes of veals. the cheaper stuff is where the money is, its got a higher turn over rate than the higher stuff, cheaper to buy in and is therefore more appealing, theres more average joe bloggses out there than there is top anglers and casters. holiday and summer fishing is where the profits are had, cant expect tackle shops to more effort inwheeling and dealing higher end gear when they can sell pack of feathers and contenders all year long hassle free.

they still complain about lads not buying gear from them , its not all about high end rods and reels the simple things like line seem to be the bigger issue
