In reply to Post #56 They went to the same supplier Taska were using

In reply to Post #54 They might of brought out some of the same stuff, but they didn't buy taska out. A company called "letsgetfishing" did

In reply to Post #52 Yup but not Nash tackle
Also a director of ispot

In reply to Post #53 They definitely took on the taska tungsten range

In reply to Post #51 Don't think it was them that bought taska ?

In reply to Post #42 I said that in a previous thread a while back.
Hooligun, Peg One, the awful BP range of reels, Dwarf, 25th Anni, Nevilles, The Stainless hardware that fell apart, the acquisition of Taska, the bait range which had 176389281672 different variations of pop ups and pellet....
They must have sunk a hell of a lot of money into those over the last 15 years.
Is it any wonder they cannot pay people a 25k a year wage when 50 quid rods snap in a gust of wind..

One things for sure, the 'all over' for Nash bit won't happen, too big a brand to just disappear while there's worth in the name.
I can see the groups and investment vultures circling, probably already been in touch, would be a shame but just another company to get swallowed up leaving less choice.
One thing about Nash, they've done it their way, quite a lot of their stuff is 'a different take' to the 'norm' and personally though not a customer, it'd be a shame to see them go that way.

In reply to Post #47 I think he bowed out of day to day running when he ran out of people to argue with.

In reply to Post #40 I was under the impression that he has not been involved for a good few years in day to day running of it. I think he literally just takes a royalty or dividend payment now a days.
I'm sure it was around the time that they split the bait and the tackle side into two businesses.

In reply to Post #45 Some say ...it was apotheosis in either aerograde alloy poles or fibre glass, the original five rib easy dome with HD built in bathtub ,groundsheet ,then mk1 straight bar titan in slippery eel ,with the shrinking bar tabs ,which made it impossible to set up ..( built to front mother nature and win)....,and as mentioned the union jack armos made by Julie I believe ..
That's the evolution of how I remember it going ,..

In reply to Post #33 If my memory ain’t failing me
Titan was king until the Armadillo arrived

Think the biggest release would be the bushwhacker in the last 5 years for Nash
Surely everything else is just a shiny rehash.
Probably no different to any other brand there though …..
Definitely don’t think Nash is aimed at the “older “ carp angler anymore.

In reply to Post #41 Based on a few hints that have been dropped, you're spot on. Apparently the Scope range has been a big revenue generator.
