Fishing Again is funded by affiliate commission. This page explains exactly what that means, because you are entitled to know how a site that recommends things to you makes its money.
The short version
Many of the links on this site that point to retailers are affiliate links. If you click one and buy something, I may receive a small commission from that retailer. You pay nothing extra. The price is identical to the one you would pay going direct.
Amazon Associates
Fishing Again is a participant in the Amazon EU Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.co.uk. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
What commission does not do
It does not decide what gets recommended. It does not decide the order items appear in. No brand has paid for a place in a guide on this site. Where a cheaper item is the better buy for most anglers, that is what I say, even though it earns less.
If I ever receive a product free of charge for review, that will be stated clearly on the page concerned.
Why I use affiliate links at all
Hosting, tools and the time to write guides properly all cost money. Affiliate commission means the site can stay free to read and carry no intrusive advertising. If you find something here useful and choose to buy through a link, it genuinely helps, and I am grateful.
Questions
If anything about this is unclear, please get in touch.
Shane Stanford has fished for carp for over twenty years, in the UK and in France, and currently fishes a private syndicate water in West Sussex. He writes Fishing Again to put the things he learned the hard way into plain language: location and watercraft first, then bait, rigs and gear. He is straight about which kit he has actually fished and which he has assessed on specification, and says so on the page.
