Deer Stalking… reliable word of mouth recommendation from someone you know has undertaken such stalking being offered by a specific syndicate is best. Like other walks of life, stalking has its scammers. E.G., make sure there is deer, of the species sought, on the land being made available; that appropriate insurance is in place; that there is recourse for recompense if it all goes wrong. In addition, obtain and understand terms and conditions; consider the implications of allowing a syndicate leader to be a FAC mentor; make sure ‘coaches’ are suitably qualified; consider the quality of deer management, the construction & execution of a shooting plan and safety; determine if the land is over-shot.

If in doubt, contact BASC or similar.

Hardy's up for sale.

Those that fish will know Hardy's well. If you have a few million you can now buy them if you fancy. Always a bit overpriced for me although I do have a couple of their rods.

Lets hope Eric Clapton adds it to his portfolio, like Cordings
Or Kenny Jones or similar.

Hope it stays British :flag5:

It stopped being British when they started to get all their blanks made in China. That's why I bought David Norwich rods until he retired.

I hope it gets sold as a going concern as it would be painful to watch it disappear into the history books!
On the plus side thou.... my collection of antique Hardy rods, reels,prawns and Devon minnows might go up in value.

I have been given a Hardys Cascapedia Salmon Reel ... only used once. But they are now made in Thailand not England. The previous version is significantly better and when they started having them made abroad the price did not drop, but quality did.
