Default Yorkshire Tackle Shops around Keighley

Are there fishing tackle shop around Keighley where I can buy pike flies?

Does anyone know if the shop in Otley has any? I think its called along the lines of "Country & Angling". It is near the car showroom(s).


I am interested in Ballydoolagh Bomber's

and

Synthetic flies.


I will be fishing rivers and stillwater

You'll be hard pushed around here. In all my amateurishness I have tried the local tackle shops including the one up Guisely and found them to be stocked to the roof with boilies and groundbait but only had a few flies.

I promise I tried my best to support my local tackle shop but I had to turn shamefully to the web. However, if anyone knows of a local flytier to our area I could swing my cash their way.

Pop over to Otley and speak to Steve Bielby of Wharfedale Angling Classics. If he can't help he will probably know a man who can.

Any reasons for not shopping on line? Apart from a liking of fresh air.

Just interested.

Loopy

I went on saturday, and he had some stuff I wanted which he said he would order for me, he did ask me if I wanted him to post them, or for me to come and collect them. I choose the first option. I will probably, hopefully be going fishing on that day, so I will pick them up on the way back from teh Harrogate area.
