Was just searching up cheapest place online to but some stuff and came across this website. They are based in Northern Ireland (Ballymena) and just wondering if anyone has used them before. Prices look very reasonable on what I'm after but never heard of them before.
Can anyone vouch that they are legit?

I would tend to treat with caution. Perhaps a small order to start to check first?
The website stats look impressive, but checking the company shows they have only been around since last year, with recorded assets of one pound!

I'm thinking of calling up Angling Direct and seeing if they will price match as they claim that they will do so on any uk online company other than ebay, amazon etc.

Yeah sorry. For some reason predictive text changed it and dumbass me didn't check before pressing enter.
I phoned angling direct and asked them to price match, so got myself a trakker levelite transformer chair for £104.99 and my son the prologic inspire large unhooking mat for £41.99 so having a great day so far.👍

I've dealt with quite a few companies to north.
Not heard anything about these.
Checking their street view on Google maps turns up a house in an estate
Not saying they're not Legit but like the other poster says maybe buy something small and use PayPal

Some of the product images actually have Fishing Republic on them. Not sure if they are part of the same group or if it's a scam. However, I bought a few more things today from Go Outdoors and asked them to price match against Fishingmore.co.uk and they did without any questions so actually got them all 10% cheaper. Stroke of luck.

You don't half buy some gear, are you using any of it yet?

My rods aren't ready yet. Should be around March time I've been told. I'm in the process of replacing everything that was stolen but this time round I'm having to get for me and my 16 year old so I'm having to really shop around for deals. I've not done too badly considering. Managed to use Go Outdoors quite a bit using their price match plus 10%. Also made the most of the deals over Xmas. Just got to look at bait now.

Fair play, that's some outlay. Let's hope you both still enjoy it!

I know I'll still enjoy it. It never really left me, just the kids were too young and both the wife and I working full time with no family nearby to help with childcare. All three kids have surprised me with how much they love the fishing and both the 16 year old boy and 14 year old daughter have had carp to just into double figures float fishing. Even the 8 year old has had them to almost 5lb.
The main thing is we get to do something we all enjoy and it's together. Such a buzz watching your kids fishing and taking it all in.
