Bristol Commercial Valuers and Auctioneers have valued the entire stock of defunct tackle manufacturer DAM at £ 160,000.

Viewing of the stock by the angling trade and some members of the public took place last week and was subject to tender.

Auctioneer Paul Nation said, “The response has been very good, and now it’s just a case of sorting through the bids.

“Predominantly, interest has come from the angling trade, although some members of the public did attend the viewing.

“We don’t envisage any problems selling the entire catalogue for our client.” He added.
