Ice Fishing Rod

Icefishingrod Heres a picture of the ice fishing rod that we used in the arctic. Its only about a foot long, made by teho in Finland. The line is 6lb mono.

We cant wait to jig for mackerel with it in the summer!

Boat Finance

Useful information about financing a fishing boat can be found at boatlinks.co.uk on their Marine Mortgage page.

Boat loans are available from companies in the UK. Boats do not devalue in the same way that cars do, they dont generally corrode and get worn away! They can be a good investment. The majority of big name manufacturers boats hold their value and can be an good investment - even if you have a loan to buy it in the first place.
