12 items to put on your shopping list this October

Here are the items that will be showing up on your bank statement this month...

Spotted Fin Frank Warwick Wafters

Since these are made from a blend of base mix and pop-up mix, the result is a perfectly critically-balanced hookbait straight out of the tub. Marry the fine ingredients used with Frank’s exquisite flavour selection - Fruit Zing, Classic Corn, Masala Spice, Miracle Berry and Caramel Cream - and you’ve got the ultimate hookbait right there. Available in sizes 12x15 or 15x18mm.
£5.49

Avid Carp Compact Session Table

Ditch the standard-sized bivvy table with Avid’s new dining table for those longer sessions. When fully erected it measures 72(L) x 72cm(W), so plenty of space for rig tying, food prep or a game of cards in the late summer sun. And don’t fret, it won’t take up 50% of your boot space thanks to its unique concertina frame design - it measures just 15(H) x 40(W) x 70cm(L).

Wychwood Packsmart MK2

A good angling ‘sack does more than carry stuff. It protects. It organises. It lets you angle more efficiently. This handsome bag with its three zip-away carry pouches, main central storage area and inbuilt waterproof cover checks all the boxes.
£74.99

Fortis Lens Cleaner

Keep Fortis’ fancy glassware in great condition with this new cleaning solution. It’s been specifically designed for their XBLOK and Triple X lenses and not only removes dirt and gunk, but helps protect your lenses too. Sold in 30ml spray bottles.
£3.99

Rod Hutchinson Extreme 5 Sleeping Bag

A mummy bag may be lightweight but it doesn’t have the home-from-home feel that the Extreme 5 does. Rated to -10-degrees, it’ll keep you cozy in freezing overnight temps, and the waterproof hollow fibre fill stays fluffy even in the morning dew. And if a fleece inner isn’t your thing, then simply flip it around to the peachskin lining for that cool, fresh feeling.
£199.99

Prologic Bank Bound Smock

Smocks are a great all-round angling garment - just ask Adam Penning. This cosy, rip-resistant version will keep you toasty and protected in inclement weather, while the attached tuck-away hood, lycra inner-cuffs with thumb holes and adjustable hem give you full mobility. The camo fabric is a lovely cosmetic finishing touch.
£59.99

Nutrabaits Trigga Ice

Trigga Ice solves the one imperfection of the 30-plus-year-old bait company’s original Trigga: it’s a proven year-round carp-catcher. Carp will happily eat it in the height of summer as they will in the depths of winter. It’s also a proven big fish recipe and comes packed with in-build attraction. Available in a range of sizes.
£11.99 a kilo

ESP PVA Bags

ESP’s new range of quick-melt bags can do everything you’d expect from a solid bag, but just better: they now come in resealable user-friendly packets, in modified sizing, and with improved (tougher without being thicker) PVA film. They are available in four different functional sizes (Mini, Multi, Sock and Bulk) in both plain and perforated.

Dynamite Baits Tuff Paste

Since it’s made from a more fibrous, sticky blend, this variant of Dynamite’s paste collection feels satisfyingly more grippy. That extra grasp keeps it moulded around your lead or hookbait, even on the hardest of impacts, for much longer, slowly breaking down, releasing their attractants. Available in five flavours.

Advanta CSX 42” Landing Net

Getting a mid-priced net with all the features of a top-end one doesn’t happen very often - i.e. never - but never just became now. For a penny under sixty-five quid you get something very special. It comes with a matt black 3k carbon weave handle and innovative dual arm net floats. The compact stainless steel spreader block ensures the carbon arms create a lovely ‘V’ shape and keep the mesh nice and tight.

RidgeMonkey Advanced Boilie Crusher Particle Plate

Last year, RM changed how we pulverise large volumes of boilies while on the bank with their Advanced Boilie Crusher. For an encore, Ridge have created this: a Particle Plate which is simple to install and will crumb up tigers, peanuts, maples, maize and most other mid-sized particles.
