Carp Angler - So what is a fair profit & what is a 'rip off'?. Surely things are only worth what someone is willing to pay. I know it's an odd idea but fishing tackle is a 'luxury' item and not an essential to the preservation of life.
Perhaps the true 'rip-off' is us greedy devils wanting our fishing tackle 'cheap' i.e. relative to what ever the far east or sub continent worker gets for turning out that fishing kit against the profits made by the others in the chain.
As I’ve written before; vote with your wallet if you're able to however don't be surprised if your local resource disappears to the detriment of those less fortunate on both sides of the world.
I do agree with your basic thrust mate, I just approach it differently - hence off to chuck some fluff for some trout, but I’m goner have a go for some local carp with the fly before it gets too cold to see their reactions to the fly!
Regards
