Default Greenway Tackle Birmingham under new ownwership!
Greenway fishing tackle shop on Chester Road, opposite Pype Hayes park is under new ownership. The owner is a former clubmate of mine and a TA member, Andy Sharpe.
Andy fished for TA a few times in Heronbrook winter league
He is planning some changes, pop in & say hello, you'll find Andy very helpful.

Thanks for the info Mark, I will pop in and take a look, Greenways has been there for a long, long time so he should get some regular trade.

Good luck to him, with so much tackle bought on mail order etc, support your local shop and give them your trade, as Brian says having worked for 5 years in the tackle trade i know how hard it can be, good luck Andy.
Be nice to go into greenways and speak to someone who is happy and polite for a change

Thought this place had shut down a few years back, they used to advertise in the match fishing mag's.
I bought my Dam matchwinner pole from there about 7-8 years ago.

Good luck to the new owner
