BIG news for you!
It was always on the agenda, but when and where depended a whole lot on what came up and where. But I’m pleased to finally be able to announce yet another new chapter for me and AOF.
Early in July we unveiled our new AOF “showroom”. Far removed from the shop of old, our new space is as much a daily work and storage space for me as it is anything else, but it does give us the luxury of having a professional base from which to occasionally show off some tackle… 
The door will be open on only TWO DAYS a week to enable wanting anglers the chance to view some exclusive products and get their hands on stuff before risking a purchase online and blind.
This isn’t a fully equipped tackle shop like the one of old (though we will use the space to offer up some of our older shop stuff until it’s gone), and doesn’t need to be one now that so many shops in Cornwall are stocking loads of proper lure gear: Lowen Chy, Gwinear and Penzance to name a few… But with the AOF collection of brands needing a base, it’s stupid not to occasionally open the door given that I’ve often had to decline requests since closing our physical premises in 2023.
Wadebridge has become a bit of a spiritual home for AOF having spent more than a decade in the town. I’d waited a long time for this opportunity to come up so I’m properly excited about being back in action (and not working from home!!!!!). It should be the perfect work/packing/filming/team/meeting location.
SEE YOU SOON!! Who’d have thought it?! More to follow…
