Tackle shop tourist!

Post by EdNash »

Hello everyone, I am being treated to a few days in Cambridgeshire/ Huntingdon. Are there any "old" tackle shops I could visit. Regards Ed Nash.

Ed, google Peterborough tackle shops there are at least two, and if you’ve never looked at the river Nene and have time visit Wansford / Fotheringhay both pretty villages with pubs. B.B wrote a nice book ‘A summer on the Nene’ where he went along on a small boat.

Keep an eye out for any local collectors fairs/markets and antiquey shops as well, you never know what may turn up. :Hat:
