wasnt it colne valley angling or something like that?

Yes, Colne Valley angling,
It was quite good in there at the start, but didn't last too long
Harefield tackle was just too strong for them, and much more variety, course fishing,match fishing, and carp and specimen fishing,
Plus a good range of baits and ingredients and such,

I met a chap on wicks mere a few years ago that had a set of 11 ½ ft 1¾ t.c or something like that, lovely smooth matt finish and full duplons with front flares, these were his only rods owned since new used on some pretty epic waters etc anyway he literally bent them pretty much tip to butt, i was gobsmacked!

I had a set of the 1.75lb rods, they were built by Graeme of Dymag fame.

the old penge angling shop at Rayleigh weir sold them,when dave potter run it..am I correct they had green whippings ?

They did Clicky, cor penge angling now that was a proper shop and Dave was a proper gent

yes was a great little shop, very knowledgeable guy dave was.helped me and my mates a lot..remember dave telling us about Kev Ellis's big casein fish..the building is still there..sadly not a tackle shop anymore..

I think this was the original Penge Angling shop run by a very tall ginge called Mike Davis.
