Reviews of Angling Direct Fishing Tackle Reading
C. S.
Wow, this was my first time going and km a fishing beginner but the staff were so helpful and nice. They let me know everything I needed as well how to get my rod setup and some good local spots.
Can't recommend enough!
A. M.
It was lovely from the outside waiting for my fiance. A blissful 25 mins to myself. Seriously though I have been inside before and bought many a present there. The staff are really helpful and willing to help us angling widows find the perfect gift
K. S.
Needed to get some returns done for a few orders, was not straightforward as they were all different orders with multiple items, Ian was particularly helpful with getting it done, offering to keep the items in store overnight and personally resolved everything the next morning!
L. D.
Good customer service. Well presented shop with good choice of equipment

Haven't fished for 40 years, visited today to see about setting up again, really helpful staff who didn't try to oversell , looked at a rod which was £5 more than the 1st I was shown and was told, it's an upgrade but the original you looked at is more than sufficient. I explained I wasn't buying today but getting prices and ideas, that wasn't an issue and Malcolm treated me as if I was going to spend £1000's on the spot. Definately the place to go for fishing, highly recommended.
G. P.
Had everything my partner wanted me to get he was happy
D. H.
Very good and helpful staff All good angler's with lots of great help and advice thanks 👍🤗
K. S.
Popped in as I was riding past as needed a decent small rod that i could travel with on my motorbike. They guys were very helpful with finding me a solution. Rode away 15 mins later with a great rod. Can't recommend enough
B. B.
Staff always helpfull ,never fail to accommodate you
J. K.
Very handy place to get all your angling needs. Some things are not the cheapest but they are quality branded products and you have to bare in mind you are supporting a shop with staff and overheads. A vast range of baits including shelf life, refrigerated & live maggots.
G. C.
I know the people working there and they are very helpful to sort out what you want
J. S.
Great staff, huge range, well layed out and fair pricing. I've been to plenty of other fishing shops and found them to be a little clicky. This shop is so refreshing, the staff can't do enough to help you and will chat about fishing and give tips. Never met a bad member of staff here. My family have been here to find gifts for me and the staff have always helped them to find something suitable.
S.
Can’t recommend enough always really helpful and give great advise and since lockdown have just been perfect pay over the phone. Items picked and bagged and brought to you at the door. Can’t fault them at all and helping me massively as I am just starting out with real fishing. Thanks guys!!
D. P.
Nice local tackle shop in Reading. Knowledgeable staff - always willing to help and share some information about fishing news. Big selection of carp fishing gear, decent amount of lures and other odd bits and bops. Very happy customer and will be coming back again. Thumbs up
R. J.
Great shop, felt like a kid in a sweetshop!! Better to visit than to shop on line as a lot of things are 'out of stock', in the shop .... If it's there you can buy.
K. D.
Fantastic knowledgeable helpful staff. I always look forward to going to the Reading Branch.
They all make you feel very welcome. I have recently taken up fishing again in my retirement
and I would just like to thank all the staff for helping me get back to the hobby I left 25 years ago.
M. R.
Great staff who are friendly and helpful. Enormous stock, and good quality bait.
A. s.
What a great shop I am a amateur at fishing
They walked me through all what I need to know
They have superior knowledge
I would Recommended them to any one
Thanks guys
O. J.
Yes good shop with all the fishing equipment and bait u would need or ever want . Staff were great and very helpful and had great knowledge off the stock and equipment and r very willing to help and give advice.
D. M.
Lots of help for the rubbish angler like myself.
Very friendly
K. G.
Helpful staff and good shop x
s. h.
Everything I need and more. I often go for a pint of maggots and walk out with everything else as well. This place massively caters to my tackle addiction and I'm sure I'd be in trouble with the wife if I had one.
As for the staff, well, their knowledge is unsurpassed in my opinion, they have never employed the tactic of forcing you to buy what you don't need but insightfully ease you in the direction of what you do. This is the ideal place also for new anglers as the staff will have you on the bank in no time at a price that will definitely not break the bank.
Lastly AD's Advanta range is amazing! Very high quality equipment at prices that put the big names to shame...... just goes to show that sometimes you DO pay for a name.
Top job fellas, keep up the outstanding work.

Excellent customer service as always

Being a larger retailer I went in expecting a frosty reception and generic service however I was more than pleasantly surprised by the help and advice I received.
I went in looking for specific items that i needed for a new carp rig setup that I wanted to try.
I've only been carp fishing for around 2 or 3 years and only knew a couple of knots and rig setups but the guys here not only showed me what I needed but also showed me how to tie it and wouldn't let me leave until I knew how to tie it too.
L. P.
Personal experience says I can't rate these guys enough . The help , advice ,prices and friendly service .
E. D.
Great bunch of guys in here kettles always on very very helpfull. Have been using for quite a while now, and feel that the changes that have happened recently are making it such a great store. Keep up the good work guys 🤙
G. F.
Fishing shops are like rocking horse pop these days. A well stocked shop with plenty of friendly chat. Top stuff.
g. k.
Went in today after winning an online contest for sticky baits manilla boilies as well as buying a few other bits at the same time. Had a warm welcome and great atmosphere. The staff there are friendly and wouldnt hesitate to help you out if needed. Great range of products bigger than it looks from the outside Overall a great experiance and strongly recommended im sure i will see myself and family going there again. Many thanks again 5*
I. K.
Bought a couple of things a month ago, and check how is the new store looks like and I loved it. Very nice and helpful staff and really awesome store. I will go back really soon to fill up my equipments for the season :P
p. d.
Not many tackle shops left as we all shop online but this is big and very friendly and I have seen guys with shopping baskets lol. a lot of the staff are young and approachable and some are from now closed tackle shops so lots of expertise available
P. P.
I visited the reading store recently and I was very happy with the service that I received I found the staff extremely helpful when it came to purchasing presents for Christmas I couldn’t recommend this store highly enough for the fantastic customer service I received.
S. M.
I went to the open day and was very pleased to see mots of my old mates had also attended. Dave Elyatt from ESP very kindly showed me the new Lo Pro brolly, and it was good to catch up and have a natter. There was also this scruffy looking bloke near the counter who was talking to lots of the customers, Terry something or other I think he was.
We got a goodie bag and a free beanie hat too, which kept me well warm until the wife stole it. All in all, a very nice shop with a good selection of everything you could need. Sadly I was not offered a cup of tea, but you can't have everything.
D. W.
Amazing store. Perfect for everything you need. Nice Friendly staff available for all your needs. Good reasonable prices and amazing choices of Everything.
Walked into the shop and I was in Heaven ☺☺

Great store, well stocked, friendly staff. Puts most tackle shops to shame. Have ordered online previously, but got a chance to visit in store this week.
P. N.
The best local tackle shop with friendly staff. They have a larg carp tackle selection and slowly building stuff for lure anglers. As a pure lure fishing fan I would be happy to have bigger selection of lures and accessories.
I. R.
Great range of products, can also order if product unavailable in store,
friendly knowledgeable staff to help with all your angling questions, presentation of products is excellent and layout of store is well thought out, keep up the great work.
Y. C.
Great shop for all your fishing bits big and small, the staff are very helpful the only thing that lets it down is the parking as very few spaces.
A. H. A. A.
Usually buy online, but as in the area decided to visit, well worth calling into. Great atmosphere and helpful staff, well stocked and able to purchase the smaller items that I sometimes forget.
J. G.
Big store, with basically everything you need. Only slight issue was the traffic, as it's on a main route out of town, so I would try and avoid going during rush hour. Having said all that I will be back.
M. K.
It is one of the best fishing stores I have visited over the last 30 years but it is a bit pricy other wise I would give 5 stars.
S. w.

(Translated) It is not good for fishing lovers. This fishing gear shop is a shop where you can ask for assortment and fishing spot information. Anyway, the clerk is very kind.
