Carp Anglers

 

Answering the fishing question – does cost always pay off?

Welcome to an adventure into carp & friends

Shane

Shane being the young buck and son of Jason he loves his technology and he isn’t afraid of spending more than many on his gear.

Does it work though, does price make a difference?  Check in with us to find out.

Jason

Jason is not as experienced an angler as his son Shane.  His focus is more the middle of the road tackle.  Does his obsession with having a ultra tidy swim make the difference…

Or, does his tinkering hinder him?

Craig

Craig has been stuck on his PB for ever, will it change, will he finally get past it?  As a more casual angler does he put in the work to beat it or is it bad luck?

Maybe it’s just his low cost gear stopping him…

Mid Range Tackle

Is it best to be in the middle, does paying that bit extra for quality make the difference?

Jason thinks spending a bit extra turns into more fish on the bank!

Cheaper Tackle

Craig has old gear, a lot of second hand with a few treats thrown in.  He feels the cheaper end tackle is just as good as the high price tackle.

Is he right or does price matter?
