Title: Hook bargain for 'salty' ties....
Post by: Hamish Young on 17/08/2019 at 16:39

So I found myself in 'The Range' in Inverness yesterday. After wandering round for a bit Rachel asked if I'd seen the fishing section.
In itself it's a bit of a laugh, but I did pick up what appears to be a bargain....
Fladen O'Shaughnessy hooks in packs of 20 for a quid. Yup, one pound only  :shock
Ideal for clousers (and many others) they're good hooks and at that price a bargain :z16
Presumably other 'Range' stores will hold similar stock.... :? :!
