I may of mentioned this before but I am really peeved off at the lack of pike tackle sold in tackle shops .
I have been to 3 local shops this week looking for some good basic semi barbless trebles and all 3 shops couldn`t help me ,in fact they all had very little stock in at all and only a choice of one maker , Fox , I`m not knocking Fox but i want more choice .
If I want carp gear there is a wide range to choose from and all 3 shops are the D.Bs .
I also understand that pike anglers are a bit thin on the ground compered with the carp angler but surely they can carry a bit better selection , I also understand that they don`t want money tied up in stock that they will get stuck with , but i`m not talking about thousands of pounds just a few hundred pounds for a good selection of end tackle , not rods or reels which they would carry already or could be ordered in .
It doesn`t help the youngster or the newcomer to pike fishing if all is on the shelves it a few bit s and bob`s and they end up with a mishmash of gear , not down to their own fault .
