My Tackle shop and fishery maps


Darren T

Recommended Posts

you may have noticed in my sig two maps that i have started on Google Maps. I have been pinpointing some locations of tackle shops and fisheries in my area to make my life a little easier when planning my day out or when trying to suggest the location of a good shop or water.

 

If anyone would care to help me in my quest (how nice would it be to have a full map!) please feel free to hand over any good tackle shops, waters etc that you are aware of. If you can provide a link to a website or a phone number it'll be even better.

 

Naturally its a work in progress so any comments are welcome.

^best of the lot, biggest tackle shop in Surrey, best selection, prices and nicest people too :)

 

Davies Angling

^quite a nice shop, owners a bit of a patronising guy (well he was to me >>) but good stock and okish prices.

Nice idea, but you might want to check with fishery owners that they don't mind their waters being on your map - there could be potential issues with trespassing, poaching, etc.

And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music

ah yeah thanks for that Anderoo. Didn't cross my mind!

 

Dan thanks for that list, i have hopefully added them all in roughly the right places! i just hope i can find an excuse to head out to Apollo Angling as it looks like a good few hours dribbling at toys!

 

For the moment the angling map only contains commercial fisheries who have a map plastered all over the website anyway. Its a shame that we even need to be cautious in thins kind of thing because a good map of loads of waters would benefit everyone who fishes including the owners of the waters. With poaching and trespassing as bad as it is though i can completely understand.
