Bought 99% of my gear through Anthony at JR and not once had a problem. Custom built rods through Vic are arguably the best built in the country.
After having all my gear nicked about 10 years ago (about £11000 worth), I went back in there a few weeks ago and was pleased to see that the shop is still going strong. I will definitely be going back in to order all my stuff from Johnson Ross now that my 16 year old has caught the fishing bug.
Prices are competitive so I don't quite understand a previous comment about deals. Professional advice goes a long way in my opinion, especially when buying expensive rods, reels, bivvies etc. Would rather pay a premium and get the rods and reels I need 1st time than buy something that doesn't quite fit the bill and have to go through the process again later down the line.
As you can guess, I'm a huge Johnson Ross Tackle shop fan.

excellent shop - stock levels have been a problem with some things but that's not their fault given the global pandemic.. i'd rather you could search on the website without having to filter by brand every time though

Just to balance things up, this is not a complaint or a moan but I'm pointing out everyone makes mistakes.
2 of my last 3 orders I've had to call JR, both after a couple of days had not been dispatched (very unlike them)
The first they could not explain but apologised and sent next day. The second one item was not in stock, someone was supposed to call and ask if I'd accept an alternative. Sadly that someone forgott.

I used them 1st time a few weeks ago ... goods arrived within 2 days all packed great and everything there ... what more could I ask for. Then again I have used a few online companies over the years and I can't think of one that has messed up an order. If you want the business in such a competitive market you have to get it right. Few will post comments when a service is good but mess up and the power of the internet can ruin you so they have to be bang on with price and service.

Have been using them for a good while now, always in stock and the postage costs are reasonable.
The actual store isn't too far away from me, ended up over that way this week. For some reason I thought there were in Sheffield!
Popped in to swap over some line I bought online (ordered the wrong BS). No hassles.
Had a look around, it's like Aladdin's carp cave. Helped myself to another 50 quids worth of bits Obviously didn't really need half of it, but you know what it's like.
Staff seem knowledgeable, welcoming as soon as I walked in.

Been using them for years for all major purchases, currently waiting on a new set of rods from them, fantastic service 10/10.
