Taylor and Johnson were a General Wholesale Tackle Company that were swallowed up by I think Leeda abround 12 to 15 years ago.

Hi
Many Thanks as I have one of their 10ft split cane su carp rods.

Hi
Robbie is right,Taylor and Johnson were indeed a large wholesaler of fishing equipment who also rebranded tackle under there own name,they competed at the time against another company called east anglian rod co(i think and i might stand corrected but they were both owned by a company called IJ W Young,later to be called Youngs holdings,),the reps for these companies were Roger Percy ans David Nielson but i cannot remember who went where,niether company manufactured themselves they just wholesaled branded goods.Both companies were bought out/amalgamated into one large firm called Leeda,again owned by Youngs,later to sell on to Madison (shimano)

hope this helps,and i am showing my age as we ordered from both T&J and EARC and now Madison.

Bry

Many Thanks for taking the time that most useful

Regards
