Pegley Davies were a trade Fishing Tackle wholesalers and manufacturers in the 1950/60/70s at Hersham in Surrey, they lost a lot of business due to the Miners strike in the 80s and eventually sold out to the East Anglian Rod Company. Many of their products especially rods are still on sale today. Their catalogue was known as the BIBLE of the trade according to Angling Times newspaper.
