Generally good all round but I have 2 slightly negative comments. First, the rod advertised was not in stock and I was given the choice of waiting for a new delivery or taking a different rod. Great... See more

Great service, will buy again from AB Fishing Tackle

Ordered several items late afternoon and they were dispatched the next day. When the package arrived it contained a hand written note thanking me for the order and if I had any problems or questions about the items to give AB a call. Can not fault them on dispatch times or communication skills. I will buy from AB again.

First class service

Can't really fault this company. They kept me informed about my order, delivered on time and changed their delivery method to one that suited me at no extra cost. Very good range of tackle as well.

Fantastic company to buy from

Started out knowing absolutely nothing about fishing apart from the want to learn and buy some starter kit. They were really helpful and spent an immense amount of time helping me with lots of advice, not involving any sales pitch etc.

Bought my gear the following day and all turned up in great shape. Unfortunately due to a manufacturing error one of the rod sections didn't fit into the other section properly and ended up with me chasing after the thing and a full body immersion... You really had to be there to see the comedy factor!!

Telephoned them to let them know and they organsied a replacement rod for me sent out by courier 2 days later.

What more could one ask for??? I would definitely recommend them.

AB superfast service at your finger tips.

Brilliant, I was looking for a specific type of equipment, and after trawling the net, (not intended as a pun, but pretty good) anyway, at AB I found exactly what I was looking for.
Easy to order, with very good communications, certainly a company we'll be using again

Good products, cheap, fast and efficient

Good products, cheap, fast and efficient – what more can I say, except that as a returning fisherman after 30 years absence, my knowledge was more than a little rusty ... So the friendly detailed helpful descriptions of all the products, what they were for and how to use them was invaluable in helping me make rational choices. Thank you.

EXCELLENT DELIVERY!!!

Ordered my online rod at lunchtime after a very helpfull telephone conversation. Paid for the overnight delivery and received it before 9.30 am the following day.
Couldn't ask for more than that.

Good service, very customer friendly.

I ordered a Shakespeare SALT Extreme Surf Travel Beach Fishing Rod for my forthcoming holiday in Cornwall. There was a problem after I placed my order because the rod wasn't in stock. This would have been okay, except it had been mandatory to pay for Express - Next Working Day delivery. They recognised the problem within minutes of my email complaint and reduced the delivery cost straight away. The rod was delivered as soon as it was back in stock (5 days from my order). The price was also very competitive. I can certainly recommend AB Fishing Tackle.

Excellent Service and Advice Given

I needed some advice on buying a sea rod, they were very helpful and polite on the phone. Oredered straight away and delivery was superfast, also very good value for money. Item I bought was even cheaper than on ebay. I would most certainly buy from them again.
