Crabrock And Henrys in Dub

At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Crabrock And Henrys in Dub

#1 Post by Mr_Green »

2 Fantastic Operaters here, ive heard good things about them both, i ordered gear of them last week, they both arrived within days and crabrock gave out some free gear, which is deadly and they will be used!! Henrys was very friendly on the phone and helpful...had a rod delivered in 2 days , it arrived perfectly!!! Really fantastic stuff, they re holding up the irish well, as far as mail order goes :lol: ... id highly reccommend them both!!

I have to agree, both are top class.

The Crabrock guys are excellent and they're happy to post stuff to me in the far north of Scotland. Only problem is I'm getting addicted to buying all the Shamrock rigs :-)

just got e-mail from them today..

Hi All,
Hope the bad weather isn’t getting you too depressed? It’s been a while since the last update, but it’s been hectic here trying to keep the shelves stocked with all of you ordering and supporting us so well, for this we all say THANKS!

We’ve finally go around to updating the site with another load of new gear. Hope you find some of it interesting.

Although we’re all out of Shamrock Swivels, we have managed to bring in a line from STORM, we’ve found that the swivels were fairly slow movers so we’ve taken a smaller range to see how they go and will expand as we find good deals amongst the wholesalers


those with accounts with them should have same e-mail..

Have to second all the comments on Crabrock. Ordered stuff from them Sunday night, arrived this morning, with 5 free rigs and a baseball cap. Great quick service and looks like good quality gear. Will definitely be using them again, and always great to buy Irish too...
Its called fishing, not catching. If it was called catching it wouldn't be fishing!
