Default Hardy Greys Alnwick
Called in over the weekend and I've never found a tackle shop with such helpful staff. Bob Smith took me out for a casting lesson/rod trial, Scott then showed me how to do it properly, then Howard Croston was casting as I left and that was just superb. Enjoyed myself so much I forgot to buy my stuff so had to go back on Saturday too!!!

No Loopy, I bought a shirt and a flyline. Spoilt for choice on rods, tried a Hardy Angel but although it was very nice I thought it was a little heavy.
