In this episode of Get the Net, Nick sits down with NickPatrick—the reel and rod repair man behind Shoreworx.

With over 20 years in the fishing industry as a sales rep and service tech for Shimano, Nick’s seen it all when it comes to keeping Kiwi fishos’ gear in top shape. He shares why he started Shoreworx to focus on honest, quality repairs that help anglers get the most out of their tackle.

They also trade big-fish yarns, including a 170kg marlin and a 39kg kingfish, and talk about why having properly maintained gear can make or break those once-in-a-lifetime fights.
