Our eventual goal is to have a great website where we fishermen can share their fishing experiences, hints and tips on bait, where to fish, product reviews, holiday locations interesting and unexpected topics, people, and circumstances, and a gallery where you can show all your mates your finest catches!

So if you have any old fishing equipment or a holiday let, and you want to make a few extra quid send us your details and we will post them onto our Classifieds Page FREE OF CHARGE.

Can I contribute content to The Fishing Shop's Reviews?

Yes, you certainly can and we will greatly appreciate it!

You can submit stories, fishing logs, recipes, images, product reviews even links to news or websites that we may have missed or simply overlooked.

Check out our forum and chat to other fishermen around the world, ask questions, get help, one bloke even got some great ideas for a wedding anniversary gift for the missus.


Send us your stories, tips, info or photos for our gallery to email : info@the-fishing-shop.com

Go Chase The Pike With A Fly..
I moved slowly upstream peering intently into the gin clear water, the bright sunshine allowed me to see every pebble, stick and even the minnows in the bottom of the pool. No breeze ruffled the surface. A shoal of bait fish hung close to a weed bed. Nothing moved as I peered intently into the water. The combination of my long peaked cap, and polarised glasses helped me search deep into the flowing water. Read

Succesful Fishing With GPS
Being able to find fish on a lake before you even put your boat in the water is key to a successful day on the water. Looking at a map and being able to read the bottom of the lake and determine the migration route the fish will follow to and from the feeding grounds and where the feeding grounds are from a map is important. This way the time you spend fishing will be in the more productive areas of the lake instead of casting blindly and hoping for something to come along. Read
