Wexford town tackle shop

#1 Post by Bigboned »

Sorry if this has been asked lads but I'm visiting Wexford town next weekend and looking to pick up some bits, who can you recommend? It's a reel and new seat box I'm after?
I'll have the mrs with me so needs to be near the quay where we are staying if poss.
Cheers

There are two tackle shops in Wexford town. Both on the main street at different ends. Murphy's is at the North end opposite Whites hotel, and Hayes Bike shop also sell tackle at the South end. To be honest neither is the cheapest shop in the country and bargains are hard to come by. Murphy's would be the cheaper of the two, but not by much. Agree Courtown angling centre would be better but 30 mins is a little bit of an exaggeration, I would say nearer 45mins unless you don't care about penalty points L.O.L.
I don't fish to catch fish. I just like using the gear.
If you think I am narky now, you should hear me when I'm in bad humour.

Hi, I you're looking for bait pop across the bridge and drive for a mile, you'll then see a turn for the the wildfowl reserve, you'll see a sign for daves bait, it's the second house on the left, again signposted. Cheaper than the other 2 shops and only 5 mins away!

I have to say I've got very good service for bait from South East Bait Supplies in Whiterock, Wexford Town.
