Frozen Deadbaits - The Tackleshop, Gainsborough

Post by Fentiger01 »

I've just taken delivery of my latest bulk order of small frozen Roach from Nev's shop. I normally order in bulk twice a year or so.

They all arrived rock solid frozen and full of colour, suggesting they are super fresh frozen. They look fantastic and I find them absolutely perfect for my Zander fishing. Great service (as usual) and a top notch product! I'm now itching to press them into use this Autumn/Winter season. :thumbs:

Cheers Nev & Sue.

For years I was never a fan of shop bought deads for Zandering, but these are of cracking quality and do work.

Beautiful, on a short "smash and grab" 2hr session late yesterday afternoon I landed a superb Zed of 14lb 4oz on one of those baits Nev. :cool: :thumbs:

They look the absolute essence and work well too. Happy with that, thanks! :grin:

Just received this Autumn/Winters supply of frozen Roach from Nev's shop having ordered them yesterday lunchtime. Again, a stunning batch of fish arrived earlier this morning, all looking really fresh and all still frozen solid!

Clearly these are vac packed and frozen very soon after capture, absolute quality!

Cheers Nev! (And Rick and Chris), really helpful.
