Lots of new gear to see but as for getting bargain you will be lucky. I spent a few quid but no difference than going to the tackle shop .

Thing is now the stands are so expensive it's probably more expensive for the companies to sell at these shows than it is through online, direct to customer.

I went gotta say its probably one of the worst shows I've been to. Yes it was rammed but most of the shows are, there were plenty of companies there maybe too many as each stand was pretty small with hardly anything on them, I was looking forward to visiting the catchit labs stand but was disappointed with the range they had available. The bigger stands belonged to the likes of ngt and were a bit like a jumble sale if you could get near them.

Agree totally. Very few bargains and walked out with a few odd bits that I could have picked up at any tackle shop without the £15 entry fee . Won't bother again .

I saw a few videos online of how busy it was, looked ridiculous. I had no idea you had to pay to get in. You genuinely have to pay to get inside, surely that's a joke?

People are nuts if they're paying to get in. I've never had it so I didn't know, but I just found out the other day that Sky TV has adverts on
I always thought the whole point was that you paid for it so there weren't any adverts.

Paid to get into a cattle pen. You were on top of everyone. It was awful, so close you could smell the plaque on their teeth. Never again will I go to one of these.

The Mainline stand had to be the most disappointing, literally a few pots of pop ups and a goo bar with 3 bowls of pop ups. All mainline guys wearing Korda, it seemed Korda told them they had to be there without anyone planning it.
