No worries

I found this company a pleasure to buy from. They carry a good stock and found their website easy to use. I opted for a finance package which was straight forward to complete and took no time to get a decision. Good communication followed and I received my goods the next working day. I would have no hesitation using them again.

Hi, we are delighted you were happy with your goods, but its a shame you didn't receive your order as expected. UPS do normally attempt at least once to deliver our orders to the designated address, and if the receiver isn't in they will take it to a UPS Access Point so it can be picked up at their convenience. Thanks for dealing with Tackle Fanatics and for leaving us feedback. Good luck and tight lines, Duncan

Avid traction 10ft 3lb carp rods

Just like to say that these rods are a pukker bit of kit,had fish on up to 21lb, and these rods are just a joy to play fish on and there's plenty of back bone,they are built to a lovely minimal standard, but at the same time not cheaply,they look custom built,stealth and do the biz, and I would just like to add a big thanks to your great service, cheers Darren Scadden 👍
