Angling Intelligence were a fantastic company. I can't remember a single product of theirs which didn't have an improvement on an existing design. The 60" brolly with the extended front spokes (which is common practice now) was superb. One of the few companies which didn't just sell rebranded stuff which was already available.

Agreed that brolly was superb design and quality and I would have one now if it was still on the market.

Tins of "Long Life" beer

"Orchard" brand apple pies and blackcurrant pies.

In the 60's that would be all I took with me for a weeks fishing to live on. Apple or blackcurrant pie for breakfast, dinner and tea and swilled down with a tin of "long Life" laid on my Woolworths sun lounger under a 45" umbrella. I never even took water with me, and looking back now, how the hell did I survive on that diet because I could not do it now.

And just realized, I would only have been about 13+. It must have been easier to have been able to buy beer in them days underage. And I still even have my "Inde Coope Long Life" can opener ("Can Spanner" as they was known by for the younger generation) on my keyring still to punch two holes in the cans to drink from, long before the days of ring pulls.

Weren't they also the first company to bring out purpose built castable weed rakes and rigid arm weigh slings, as well as the first company to commercially market baiting poles to the carp market?
