Welcome to Classic Angling, if you are looking for Hand Made Fishing Tackle, you are one click away from finding what you may be looking for.

I specialise in the making and restoration of replica vintage fishing tackle. As you will
see in my online catalogue, my rods are made to the exact specifications as the old time classics and all rod fittings are made by myself.
If you wish, I can also build split cane rods to any other specification you may desire, whether it's for stalking Carp, touch ledgering for Barbel, casting a tiny dry fly for Trout or spinning for Bass, just contact me with your details and I'll advise on a rod taper and length to suit your needs.


If you fancy adding your own personal touch, why not build your own split cane rod, I'll
supply the rod blank, fittings, rings and whipping silk.

I can also supply split cane rods to the trade. Contact me for further details.

As you will soon find out, it's not only split cane rods that I make, I hand build replica classic landing nets, centrepin reels, including the famous B.B Centrepin. I also make wading staffs, priests, and aluminum rod tubes. I can also offer a full repair and restoration service to any old reel you may have.

I also have for sale various items of old classic tackle and not so old fishing tackle! Check out the for sale page for details.

I hope you find what your looking for within this site, please add to your favorites,this site will be updated during the coming months as I add new products to my catalogue.
