Rounding up all the new gear that’s hitting the shop shelves this month…

Subsurface Icon Hood

Discreetly logoed on the breast and underarm, this subtle garment is as cool as you’d expect it to be from SSJ. Made with an 80-per-cent cotton blend and a heavyweight 320gm cut, it’s available in Bottle Green or Olive Green.
£36.99

2. RidgeMonkey Chod Hooks

This strong stiff-rig pattern has RidgeMonkey’s unique RM-Tec GunMetal coating, a super sharp point and a 25-degree upturned eye for great rig mechanics with fluorocarbons and stiff monos.

Kryston No Tangle

This is effectively a PVA gel in a bottle which temporarily turns your supple hooklink into a stiffer material for trouble-free casting. It then melts off in the water to return the braid’s original properties.
£6.50

Daiwa Emblem Spod Reel

This is a classic workhorse that keeps on churning for thousands of anglers across the country. There are two big line clips, a large-capacity spool, durable innards and Daiwa’s CastLock to prevent accidental bailarm closures.

Dynamite Liquid Attractant (new flavours)

All-round liquid goodness. These 500ml bottles of liquid (White Chocolate & Coconut Cream, Robin Red, Squid & Octopus and Spicy Shrimp & Prawn) can be used in every imaginable bait-related concoction: over boilies, pellets, particles; in spod, Stick and groundbait mixes. They’re PVA-friendly too, so you can add liquid-filled solid bags to that list.

Gardner Tackle Rig Glue

Packaged in a handy pen-shape, Gardner’s Rig Glue can be used for sticking foam or cork to hook shanks. It can also be dabbed on knots to help prevent strangulation. Just a tiny smear is all that’s needed on braided materials.
