Carp tackle around george

Hi guys!

I'm a complete novice to the fishing game, I have loved it since a very young age, but never been able to actually get into it properly. I have now recently moved to George and have decided it's time to actually get into this properly and start getting something bigger than a little 500g bass😂
I have already bought a bunch of tackle now, but have ended up going the online route because I just couldn't find what I needed locally around George.

Are there any 'hidden gems' of carp fishing tackle shops around George? Also does anybody else on here fish for carp in the area? Would love to have a fishing partner to learn from!

Cameron!

Welcome to George! Have you tried Tackle Traders in Hope Street? Also have a look at Arms and Tackle Outdoor World at the Checkers centre down the bottom of York. Just curious - why fresh water fishing when you have such a beautiful coast lone on tour doorstep?

And I've been to both of those plus sports center and tackle traders. They all only have bits and pieces and quite the right stuff. I visited Durban this past weekend and had to buy boilie stops while I was there cause none of the George shops had any

hmmm ok try giving Riaan from Harten Hengel in Hartenbos a call : zero 8 two 8 three 9 six 8 four 3.

I see he's started carp fishing himself so maybe he'll be able to lead you in the right direction. I don't know anything about fresh water but just recall seeing fresh water goodies in those shops I mentioned earlier.
