Break into salmon fishing without breaking the bank!

Fishing tackle manufacturers Hardy and Greys are hoping to attract new blood
into the sport with the launch of an exciting new range of salmon rods.
The Northumberland company believes its diverse range of Swift double handed
rods are among the best they have ever produced - the 11'6" #7 being perfect for
sea-trout on smaller rivers and the 16' #11 as a big casting, big mending rod
– and anglers who have tested them are equally excited.
“We have had some great salmon rods in the past but these are definitely the
new generation,” said commercial director Ian McCormack. “They are very
light, well-balanced and powerful, making long casts surprisingly easy.
“Salmon fishing has become affordable and we are keen to promote this. We
have the Greys G-Series which enables newcomers to take up salmon fishing
without breaking the bank, sitting alongside the fantastic new Hardy Swift
salmon rods, meaning we have products to match everyone’s requirements and
pockets!”

Hardy and Greys experts, including Howard Croston, a member of the England
European Fly Fishing Squad, will be at Springwood Park on May 5th-6th to give
casting tuition and advice to novices and would-be improvers alike.
Said Howard: “Any competent fly fisher has a duty to pass on their skills to
others, especially children, and the Tweed Angling Fair, as Scotland’s premier
specialist Fly Fishing show, is an ideal opportunity for us to do that.”
