Cygnet Square Bucket Spod Adaptor Kit

In years gone by, Cygnet’s Spod Adaptors previously only put your round bait bucket right where you need it: at your waist height, making it easier and quicker than ever before to bait up. This new addition now means you can convert your favourite square bucket into one of super-Spombing-awesomeness!

Sufix XL Strong

Sufix has earned itself legendary status by making some of the best lines in the world, and XL Strong could be one of their best casting monos. Made from a super copolymer nylon formula, it offers less twisting, fewer kinks, min backlashes and greater distances. Available in a range of breaking strains.
From £5.30

Spotted Fin/Frank Warwick Booster Sprays

Collaborations are fairly commonplace in carp fishing now. But when it involves top bait firm, Spotted, and bait boffin Frank Warwick, we’d call it “c’est magnifique!” The range of five sprays are ideal for soaking hookbait or misting over groundbaits.
£5.99

ESP Grip Stops

ESP is renowned for making stellar end tackle, and their latest drop hasn’t disappointed. Grip Stops are short sections of tubing which act as the perfect shank stop, gripping different wire diameters securely.

Nutrabaits BFM: Krill & Cranberry

The good people at Nutrabaits have been rooting around in the archives and have dug out a gem. Based on the original-original Big Fish Mix and combined with the cult classic Krill and Cranberry flavour combo, this 20+year bait is a top purchase. And better still, along with 1kg bags, Nutra are now selling them in handy 400g bags.

Greys G4 Sunglasses

There’s more to Greys than their incredible handy work with carbon. Check out this range of four glasses: G1, G2, G3 and G4, with the latter being favoured by previous monthly diarist, Ed Betteridge. The Anti-Reflective back coating reduces glare off the backside of the lens helping you to see more and cut eyestrain.
£49.99

Rod Hutchinson Wafters

Thanks to having the optimum blend of pop-up mix to base mix, it means these hookbaits are perfectly fine-tuned to sink ever-so-slowly under the weight of your size 8, which will cause all sorts of issues for the carp in your lake.
£4.99

Wychwood Tactical Flatbed

Thanks to its collection of three sizes - Compact, Standard and Wide - the Tactical Flatbed can handle any angler, in any situation, from ‘guesting’ to weeklong, ultra-comfort-required sessions overseas. Supporting the thick, fleece-lined green and DPM colour scheme mattress is a super lightweight (think: 6.5, 7 and 7.5kg respectively!), completely flat, six-leg aluminium frame which not only provides massive stability but thanks to the non-stretch, anti-sag side fixings, it’s mind-blowingly comfortable. Oh, and they’re ridiculously cheap, too!

Gemini Tidy Booms

British brand Gemini prides itself on genuine advancement, and their new Tidy Booms give you one seriously big step forward. They are fused booms that are ideal for Hinged Stiff Links or Ronnies. The 5.5” and 7” 30lb fluorocarbon links feature a 6mm ‘Fused Loop’ at one end and a 10mm at the other, with the latter housing either a size 11 swivel (for Hinges) or quick-change swivel swivel (for Ronnies).
£3.49

Kodex XC50 Unhooking Mat

A beanie mat might seem a bit old school nowadays, but this offering from ace all-round brand, Kodex, has lots to offer. Deep, beanie style sides keep 30lb+ carp in place, whilst the cavity/pocket in the top corner is perfect for stowing your carp care products. And because of its fold-out shape, it’s compact during transport but frickin’ massive when you open it up (90x48cm).
£44.99

Banana Rods T48

The old adage ‘less is more’ definitely applies to these minimalist rods from French-based company, Banana Rods. Sublime, classic looking blank, chiselled Arrius reel seat and long-range Fuji K SiC casting rings, all help launch a lead a VERY long way in this 13ft 3.5lb TC model of this rod.
From 549€

Advanta 5lt Particles

If making the best budget-priced beds, bivvies and rods wasn’t enough, now the Angling Direct sub-brand, Advanta, has a swanky new bait range, starting with these completely natural, zero added preservative, particles. Ready-to-use and available in four options: Spod Mix, Hemp, Hemp & Maize and Chilli Hemp.
