Filming is underway at the moment on the final series of the BBC hit series Poldark. We were contacted by the production company as they had a sea fishing sequence planned and were looking for some correct period fishing equipment.
Thomas Turner Fishing Antiques to the rescue! We sent along a lovely 2 piece Farlow & Co greenheart boat rod paired with a large wooden Nottingham-style starback sea reel.
The Daily Mail published a story today about the new series and lo and behold there is a photo of actor Aiden Turner as Poldark out in a boat with the gear on the seat beside him. Wonder if he caught anything?
