At Baiting The Swim, transparency and honesty are at the heart of everything we do. As part of how we fund our content, we occasionally use affiliate links within our articles, reviews, and buying guides.

What Are Affiliate Links?

Affiliate links are special URLs that allow us to earn a small commission when you click on them and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. These commissions help us keep the site running and continue producing high-quality, free content for the match and coarse fishing community.

How Does It Work?

When you click an affiliate link (e.g. to a retailer like Total Fishing Tackle or Amazon UK) and complete a purchase, we may receive a commission based on that sale. You pay the same price you would normally — the only difference is that the retailer shares a portion of their profit with us.

Our Promise to You

We only recommend products we genuinely believe in or would use ourselves.

Our editorial independence comes first — affiliate partnerships do not influence our product reviews or rankings.

All affiliate content is disclosed within each post.

Legal Note

Baiting The Swim participates in various affiliate marketing programs. These programs are designed to provide a means for websites to earn fees by advertising and linking to retailers. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. We also partner with selected retailers through the Awin affiliate network, which helps us connect with trusted tackle brands and earn commissions when readers make purchases via tracked links.

Questions?

If you have any questions about our affiliate partnerships or how they work, feel free to get in touch. We’re always happy to explain more.
