I see they got an open weekend next week (7th,8th,9th March).
I'm working in arbroath on Fri night so thought since i was bout 1/3 the way i would stay over and travel the rest on sat morn.

Has anyone been to it before is it worth going to?

Thing is Dave..most of the stuff you can get in local shops..but when you see it piled high on shelves in what looks like a supermarket, you just buy, buy, buy....lol

Its a nightmare for me with the Pike lures..lol

Dave,

It is an impressive store - one piece of advice - walk round the store twice before you start to to fill your 'net bag' or your money will have run out before you exit aisle 1.

I think they have guest tyers, casters, experts and the odd celeb' so you can glean a fair bit of knowledge as well as tackle.
