Interest Free Fishing Tackle on Finance

With the new season fast approaching it comes as no surprise that we’re seeing a growing trend of anglers looking for ‘fishing tackle finance’ in our search logs for the site. Credit fills me with dread – I’d have trouble recommending finance to anyone – but if it gets you fishing and you don’t overspend and keep within your reasonable limits then I guess I can see it as a means to an end. I thought I’d have a look around the web to see what the options were like.

It appears that there are Interest Free Credit options available, even in today’s financial climate. One of Fishing-Tackle.co.uk’s partners – Fishtec – offer no deposit, interest free payments over 6 months. The trade off is that this is only available if you spend over.

Tackle Fanatics – New Site for Used Fishing Tackle

“Tackle Fanatics is an exciting new website launching in April 2010 which will offer the UK’s biggest range of quality used tackle!”

That’s a bold statement when you consider the success of eBay but it’s exactly what the company behind TackleFanactics.co.uk have set their sights on. We came across Tackle Fanatics at The Big One tackle show in Farnborough and I must say, from a presentation perspective, Craig and Matthew (the gentlemen behind the new venture) they have it spot on, with a fresh and vibrant looking brand.

The Prestige Carp Porter Mk5 Barrow

At the recent Big One tackle show, one item that caught my attention was Prestige Engineering’s new Carp Porter barrow – the Mk5. Wow! What a piece of kit. And British too. I have absolutely no requirement for a carp barrow but now I want one!

Prestige have been making tackle transportation devices for 20 years and they say the Mk-5 Carp Porter is the best fishing barrow they’ve ever made. Each features a lightweight, hi-tensile steel frame made here in the UK by hand and such is the amount of love that goes into making them, each one is individually numbered. All Carp Porter Mk5 barrows come with a lifetime guarantee for the frames – impressive. Continue reading “The Prestige Carp Porter Mk5 Barrow”
