Just read the above thread.
Little bit disappointed reading this thread. I have been getting bait off this supplier years and years and
I have never been let down by him and always points me in the right direction when it comes to the fishing side of
things. Just for the record we all get let down by a bait supplier every so often. Itš a difficult job so lets just get on with it
and stop trying to ruin the lads business.

Got bait on Friday and it was perfect. The crab were about to explode with juices and the bass went mad for them. :)
Was left waiting around once or twice but no big deal.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

So if you give something a bad review you're automatically trying to ruin their business?

Tell me this. If you ordered a rod off an online dealer and it didn't arrive would you:

A) Tell people about your experience to save them from disappointment and dont go back to that dealer

or

B) Try and ruin the dealers business

I think its clear what option I took. I swear I'm not in my underground lair drafting up an evil scheme to bring this chap down. Its my right as a consumer to review a service on a public forum and I've well gotten on with it. After many months of anger management :lol:

Always got top class bait off this supplier and usually throws in a few extra crabs/ worms. Can be tricky to get a hold off alright so I normally order ahead. Has given me plenty of information on marks to try as well.
It ain't easy but it sure is simple!

Been getting bait off Dave for over 20 years - never once let down.

It's not a traditional tackle/bait shop, order in advance and you'll be well looked after :wink:
