Agree with Daire ,Southside is a great shop,very spacious and well laid out with a monster selection of top quality tackle and always something for the bargain hunters.And dont forget to haggle these guys are proper business men and are not totally out to raid your cash.there website isnt great but that doesnt matter ,youll be surprised at how good of a shop it is and how friendly the lads are if you pay a visit.
And on the Northside Henrys on Ballybough rd dub 3 a short spin from city centre,if its high end japanese tackle this is the shop ,the lads have a wealth of experience in Bass fishing and everything else.It might not seem that they have a lot in stock,just have a look at there website .Enough said except bring a wad of cash :roll:
Have a good one Chris in the big smoke
