    Ordered some stuff for my other half from www.fishingtackle2u.co.uk who are based in Belfast (as McKees Fishing tackle) Ordered Savage gear bushwhacker rod (XLNT 20-60g) and some savage gear sandeel lures which came to £60 for the lot (think the rod alone was about €90 in any shops he looked in here) He was like a child at Christmas when they arrived yesterday:rolleyes: Arrived in less than 48 hours to Cork. Was a bit dubious about ordering as I always am with sites I haven't ordered from before but it worked out well this time!! Thought they deserved a mention here!

    Just another mention for woodies (in cork on the tramore road anyway and possibly others). Was there awhile ago and they have a selection of reels reduced. Got myself a Vigor carp baitrunner reel for €9.99. Couldn't leave it behind for that and quality seems reasonable for the price even if i got a season out of it.

    They had sea fishing pier type reels and a boat multiplier too for 7.99 and 17.49 respectively.

    Might suit as stocking fillers for anyone starting out.

    Used to live around this area, just remember the big guy who owned Castlecoote Stores standing crossed armed outside his shop any time their were strangers in the area(well that was my thinking) looking like a man you would not cross. I never entered the shop as i didn't do fishing at the time but 2 friends of mine did enter and said there was a lot of fishing and shooting gear in there.

    Beautiful and very picturesque village. A very old Telecom Eireann phone box, flowers everywhere, picnic benches. It has the river Suck running through it. Absolutely beautiful looking and meticulously maintained. The river is split in two with an island and there were boulders laid in perfect position on the island and to either side of it. There was always fly fishers wading in the water. If your in the area check it out. I used to stop there some days with my daughter on our way to Roscommon, to take a few minutes by the river. In fairness to the big looking guy who looked like he would bite the head off ya, he was accommodating with the use of a public toilet(v.clean) for my daughter he has beside his store.

    Read this thread last night as i am thinking of taking up some sea/rock fishing this weekend. Need a hobby. Any how! didn't see him mentioned on the thread and for looks alone of the place and I would say it is him and his family who maintain the river, he deservedly deserves a mention. Its on the R366 road to Roscommon.

    Got his details from a google search.

EMM.. I'M IN A TACKLE SHOP,where ya headin boy? LIKE I'M GONNA TELL YA! Anyway, 3 - Murrays,a good selection,good prices and a good lookin' brunette that works there now and again could sell me rainwater.4 - Bait All Tackle, in Fermoy,i've only found this little gem in the last year but it's right up there.The lady that owns it is very helpful and knows her stuff not the cheapest but worth a trip.All the rest i only visit if i'm caught out.If you want to just buy flys the the selection at Ballyhass Lakes Shop is huge and so are the prices of course.By the way Sharkys is closed,shut,gone, ball scratchers n all

    Was looking for a certain lure recently and found it on http://www.spinnersofkilleshandra.com/shop/. It's the online store of Spinners tackle shop in Killeshandra. Had a good look around and picked up plenty of bits and pieces I needed/wanted, including a few bits I had looked for elsewhere in the past and couldn't find.

    The site won't win any awards but they have a great selection of gear, especially for piking. Everything I needed and more.
    Shipping was fast.

    Not Irish and not for your high end gear but sportsdirect.com have a large range of mostly affordable fishing bits and pieces.

    Would be a good site to go to if someone was starting out or wanting to test the waters a bit without too much of an outlay (and knew exactly what they were looking for). Although I think everyone, beginner or not, would see something that they'd like there.

    Yeah, i mentioned it earlier in the thread. based on the woodies in Cork Picked up a cheap reel there last year and used it a few times. Not too bad. Their terminal tackle is horrendously overpriced tho.

    Do they sell bait in there? There used to be a bait shop just down the road, towards the town centre, in Lucan but the shutters have been down the last few times I passed by. Can't remember the shop name but I suspect it is closed down. It used to be good if you needed some bait in a rush.

    I doubt it tbh. The ones in cork have lots of bits and pieces but in the form of terminal tackle and budget rods and reels. No bait unfortunately

    Have been pondering the same, even with shipping etc their soft plastic lures will still be worth it.

    Also looking at the Daiwa Spinmatic pack rods for a 4 piece ultralight spinning rod, want something for LRF that I can take on holiday.

    I reckon AGM Fishing in the UK look good value for soft plastics.
    You'll probably have to factor in customs charges too if ordering from Cabelas
