Stocked with All the latest gear, ranging from, Greys, Veniards, Flash Attack Flies and lots more. The shop is located at Unit 7 Windmill Site Brigsley Road, Waltham in Grimsby.
Andrew told UK Flyfisher " Im excited about the opening. There isn't many places nearby to buy flyfishing tackle, so It seemed a good thing to do. What more could I ask for, to own a shop based around my hobby". Andrew already has orders for tackle before his shop even opens! "We have some good fisheries nearby, for instance Toft Newton, Thorpevale and Otby Lakes, to name but a few." Anglers will now have somewhere local to buy all there needed tackle and flytying equipment."
The shop will be opened by Stuart Cross, who himself has fished at International and World Level for England on the river scene. Stuart will be on hand demonstrating his fly tying techniques and answering any questions.
Why not pop down and see your new local tackle shop. You are bound to see something you want!

Everyone at UKFF wishes Andrew all the best of luck with his new venture.
