Hi guys,
As above. I've been out of the lead game for a while because I used to buy in bulk. The last outfit I used was Liverpool Leads and I think that was before Lockdown 1.0 They've gone now, unfortunately; excellent leads, service etc. mind.
So who's good now? I'm sure someone must have picked up their slack 😀
I wasn't happy spending £2.80 per (Korda) lead in my local tackle shop recently, hence the post.
I'm happy for Facebook/Insta recommendations.
Thanks.

I use mp lead shed normally. But got my last lot from omc. They had an offer on with free postage so didnt cost me anymore than getting them from mp leadshed, and i didn't have to pick them up. Im not an omc or ali hamidi fan fyi, far from it, was purely a price and convenience thing, but they seem pretty decent so far. Not sure if the offers are regular but worth keeping an eye on. Otherwise, MP Leadshed is my go to. Never had any issues with them.

I've been using Johnson Ross' own brand leads. £7.50 for 5. Not the cheapest, but much cheaper than the major brands. Only been using them for a few months so can't comment long term but so far so good.

I had the same issue with my last 2 orders. He offered to recoat for me if I took them back, 4 hours each way or a hefty postage cost so I never did. I still havent fished this year so got plenty but when I start back and need a top up I will be looking st some of the options mentioned here. Shame as before that they were great

Sorry to hear that Bradders I have never had any issues with leads from him after using for many years of using them having said that not bought from him for a few years as always bought in bulk .
Still this is what forums are all about .

I get my leads from Franks leads, always have been spot on, and reasonable priced.

Xclusive Tackle are pretty good and reasonably quick. I’ve used them loads the last couple of years.
Used WestCountry leads once a few months ago and although the leads were very cheap at only 60p each, quality seemed as good as Xclusive’s. However, delivery time was pretty slow at 3+ weeks and communication wasn’t the best.

Just bought some from West Country Leads, but not loads (thank god!!). Before that I used to get them from Carter's Lead on Facebook. He's pretty good and reasonable. I'd try and get someone local if you can so you can collect to avoid postage costs.
