"It was a difficult decision" said owner David. "We love running the shop but with the significant price increases we're fielding for energy, mortgage rates and insurance it just made sense.
"We want to be able to continue to offer the best possible service to the angling community and that includes keeping our prices as low as possible.
"We know many of our customers already shop online and are confident but we are also aware that many people are new to shopping online.
