tackle shops

Treated myself to a very sweet pair of waders from the swords angling center in applewood in swords. It’s a small ship with a big selection of very well priced stuff for sea, coarse and fly fishing. The guys know their fishing and seem to sell everything. Their selection of flies is excellent. They also sell plenty of bait. I’m going back tomorrow to pick up a few cheap things I should’ve bought, hope they are not gone, like Mustad knives for a fiver. Tomorrow evenings weather is going to be gorgeous.

It's not apparent from the outside, but McCarthy's in Prosperous have a brilliant tackle shop hidden in the depths of a builders providers. a huge amount of coarse gear but also pretty much everything you need for game fishing and some sea fishing equipment. They also have shooting stuff and clothing and footware.
James, the manager is a serious coarse fishing addict who usually get a few specimens every year. They have a website www.huntingandfishing.ie

Came across this chap in Carrickmacross recently, bought some small stuff from him, very genuine nice fella, Ordered a few packets of hooks I couldn't get anywhere else and they were delivered in a day or 2, good service, bait prices very reasonable too, handy if you're fishing up that way and need a few bit
