News
Otherwise I expect rods to become available later this winter.
I have now taken delivery of my first Eden Cane rod. It is ultimately destined to be donated to the WTT for their ebay annual auction in 2011. I'll be handing this rod over to the WTT at the CLA Game Fair, so why not visit their stall and ask to have a look (you may even catch me there).
The page is now up & running; have a look at the short film by Sam Ebersole that I've added. The pics. have now been added, along with the initial price details and the full range and availability information will be available very soon.
Big NEWS:
The Alternative Tackle Company is now an approved Scott Custom shop Dealer. You can find out more on the Scott rods page here or click on the image above for more details.
Danielsson PRICES:
Danielsson reels have restructured their prices and I have now updated their pages to reflect the new prices. These reels are now even better value and for manuufacturing and design quality and function they are hard to beat at any price.
Latest ARRIVALS
The Alternative Tackle Company is also now an Abel reel dealer.
Abel reels are another Big Name that needs no introduction.
But this being The Alternative Tackle Company, I will be listing their reel ranges that are less often seen, such as the TR, Abel Creek & the new super series 3N models and concentrating on the special anodised finishes and custom orders.
The pages are now on line & you'll find them here.
I'm pleased to announce that The Alternative Tackle Company are now approved Thomas & Thomas dealers.
Thomas and Thomas are one of the most respected and well known names in the rod making industry. Their rods are still designed by Thomas Dorsey one of the original Thomas' & their pedigree & functionality are very hard to match.
In spite of this they have been very difficult to find in the UK & not very widely available anywhere...... sounds like a job for The Alternative Tackle Company!

Coming SOON
ARI 'T HART NEW F SERIES FLY REELS
Available in 3 sizes the new F series reels are a re-working of the original classics with an even better version of the famously smooth F series drag system. These are production reels & are much more affordable than Ari's limited edition handmade reels.
These reels have been delayed a bit, but will be worth the wait & should be available around the 9th of July. For more visit heir page here.
The rods should be available soon; please watch this space!
