Poingdestres is in Southampton about 20 minutes away but worth the trip. They are very good - Google them.

The best one nearest you is Mannings on the A3 at Widley. Good choice and a great guy. I can't remember if Alan's Marine is still open in Twyford Avenue as he died a few years ago. Hansfords at Fareham has a greater choice of tackle on display. Rovers in Fareham has a reasonable choice and sells good maggots.
