At Commando Tackle, we don’t just sell fishing gear we provide mission-ready tools designed to perform under pressure. Our products are battle-tested in spirit, forged from real-world experience, and built to serve those who demand precision, durability, and reliability with every cast.
The story behind Commando Tackle is one of service, resilience, and a deep respect for quality. Our founder, George Treadwell, is no stranger to high-stakes environments. A former Royal Marines Commando, George completed two active tours in Afghanistan as part of a front-line combat unit. In such unforgiving conditions, there was no room for second-guessing or gear failure. Split-second decisions and unwavering trust in equipment were non-negotiable. That mindset—born on the battlefield—now defines every product we create.
When George left the Royal Marines in 2011, his journey of service didn’t end. He joined the UK fire service, continuing his dedication to protecting others. During this time, his passion for angling began to flourish. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a serious pursuit, fuelled by the same focus and discipline that defined his military career. George immersed himself in the world of fishing, collaborating with leading names in the industry and building a solid foundation of knowledge and expertise.
This led to the launch of ClubCarp, a successful subscription service delivering premium tackle to anglers across the UK. While ClubCarp made high-quality gear accessible, George’s vision didn’t stop there. He wanted to create a range of products that met the uncompromising standards he lived by in the military. Thus, Commando Tackle was born a brand rooted in performance, purpose, and precision.
Every item in our range reflects this ethos. Whether it’s our hooks, rigs, or high-spec accessories, each piece is engineered for real-world use tough, efficient, and built to last. George’s military background has shaped every aspect of our design process. Just as operations require planning, adaptability, and trust in your kit, so too does fishing. It’s not just about casting a line it’s about being prepared for any situation nature throws your way.
At Commando Tackle, we’re here for the tactical angler. The kind of person who braves bitter mornings, shifting conditions, and hard-fought waters. You need gear that won’t falter. Our tackle is built to perform when it matters most whether you’re targeting elusive carp, adapting to new environments, or simply chasing that one perfect catch.
But we’re more than just a tackle company. We’re a community. With deep respect for those who serve, we proudly offer a generous discount to veterans, active military personnel, and members of the emergency services. It’s our way of giving back to those who live and work with the same values we champion resilience, reliability, and readiness.
So, whether you’re a seasoned angler with years of experience or just starting your fishing journey, trust Commando Tackle to have your back. Our gear is designed to give you the edge so you can focus on the thrill of the chase, not whether your kit can handle the challenge.
Join the mission. Fish with confidence. Fish with Commando Tackle.
