cheap mackeral in tescos!

#1 Post by the-ghost »

arite lads. just thought id tell yous all that tesco are selling fresh whole mackeral at 80p each. handy if your in the same boat as me were the pre caught winter frezzer stock has nearly gone already. had a drawer full of them but wud usually take out 4 per trip which has made them disappear.. good point about buying fresh ones is that it stays on the hook far better. dont know if its better than frozen for catch rates mind you
