Haven't received my item as of yet but understandable coming from across pond. I was at first concerned with the amount of personal information to open an account but received message from Sl Kitchner that calmed my concern. I await my item and that is why only Good rating and shouldn't be seen as reflection of company.

I took advice from your very informative article on buzzers and purchased some of your bloodworm patterns. I gave them a try. After landing my fourth rainbow trout all on the bloodworm I was pestered by the other anglers on the loch as to what I was catching them on. My regards, Adam Borwick Sec./ Treasurer Selkirk & District Angling Association
