This time of year tackle shops can probably get elite's easier than crab lol

Pity it shut.........a moved away 6mnth ago and was back in area a while back and seen it was shut!! Shame as a used to use it......nice lad and lass and bait was always spot on!

As little fishing as I've done the last couple of years, I was surprised when I realised that each time I've passed lately the shutters had been down, hadn't clicked that it had closed up at first. Always found Simon a canny guy, got both my slosh 20 & 30 from there and other gear, bait was always cracking. Shame to see the place closed down again.

Still remember from being a kid when it was Temples, buying packs of "scrap" ie broken worms to use to fish in the harbours over the summer holidays. Was another place a few streets away back in the 80's we sometimes went too - "Whitley Bait & Tackle", whatever happened to those guys?

[snatcher]

Aye its a right shame it has closed. Dead handy for the local lads. Remember back in the 60s when the bait machine was outside the old Temples.

Which is the closest tackle shop for Whitley now ? Billys in North Shields ?
