Out of nothing more than pure nosyness, why has Martin Lock started a new tackle company called Lucky Locky Tackle ?
Is he no longer associated with Solar Tackle ?

I didn't know , I've just ordered some matrix dinky hotheads, sorry lockey you missed that sale
I subsequently ordered some stainless line clips,which arrived today. I think they are better than the solar p1 version. Came with an instruction diagram, and a signed slip from lockey,which I thought was a nice touch.

Not often I think there's something to look forward to in tackle nowadays, but the idea of this genuinely has me interested

Off for a nosey

Edit, not a lot to see there yet!

Munch baits, I checked their website but there is not yet any mention of any bait designed by lockey. Their website seems lacking in information on the ingredients in their baits. So it's a no from me . I'll be sticking with Geoff Bowers for the time being If Lockey brings out a superior version of Club Mix to the original I'll have some
Are you sure?
