Welcome to Chapmans Angling
Angling superstars such as Matt Hayes, John Wilson, and Mick Brown, were kept busy signing autographs, along with all the other well known anglers.
Daiwa were well represented with consultants Nev Fickling, Julian Cundiff, and Brian Skoyles on hand to talk about the Daiwa range and give people a chance to enter the popular guess the line on the Linear-X reel competition. For those who attended and entered, the correct answer was 114m (124.7yds).
The lucky winner, winning a pair of the new Linear-x reels was a Mr C Clayton from Otley. Well done, we hope you get a lot of pleasure out of fishing with the reels.
Another feature of the event was a young local carper called Ashley who had had the idea to get some polo shirts signed then auctioned off for charity. Daiwa donated 4 shirts which kept Ashley busy getting them signed. We’ll let you know in the future how much was raised.
The weekend was a great success, and we’ll leave the final word to Mark Wilkinson, general manager who commented...
"The most pleasing thing for me about the weekend was the comments from the 100's of customers and Angling Superstars who congratulated us on the size and layout of the store, the amount of choice and what a great place to shop it was.
Everybody who I talked to said they had had a great time, and with over a 1000 customers over weekend all leaving with smiles on their faces, we think it was a tremendous success."
