look in the papers etc and ask them to send a price list then, compare them.
Make sure they are certified and make sure you have consent form. The EA are pretty smart on new fisheries,they have a list of dealers.
roach/rudd 4/6in
carp 6/8in with a few to 1 1/2lb
gudgeon cost a fortune

The dealers our way will charge for delivery and they aint cheap best to look closer to home.
The EA sell fish had some chub /bream /rudd off them a few years ago.

Furnace Mill, aint bad have a place on web site for fish sales

Hi Simon, Humberside fisheries are over your way, they have a good website with all the prices ,sizes etc. All suppliers will charge carriage per mile so the less carriage the more fish you can buy.
I know someone who got fish from them and they are doing very nicely indeed. I have never had any from them but have seen the ones they supplied a few years back and they are cracking fish. I have got other names if you need them, but we got all our fish from the EA so we never had to buy any in the end. Let me know if you need any more info.
Mark

Simon,
Again, try Sparsholt college for contacts and advice. Their website is Sparsholt College Home Page

As for suppliers, the only one I could recommend is Framlingham Fisheries. Their website is Framlingham Fisheries and prices can be found at Untitled Document

Cheers,
Stu
