I note the topic re impending tackle price rises has been locked off to further reply.
I also note that it has been left up so that people can see the posts that were made prior to it being locked.
However, I was just wondering why it was locked off...? It was an expression of views that didn't seem overly offensive, there were opinions both ways, and it is a matter that is very near and dear to a lot of our hearts...particularly when talking about top end popping and jigging gear which is pretty expensive for us retail consumers.
Anyway, I was just wondering because I don't want to fall foul of any forum rules I am unaware of, but at the same time it seemed a valid topic for discussion
