LATEST ADDITIONS

HOT OFF THE PRESS! Again boasting most of the R1’s features, including camou trim, cam wheel, adjustable legs but this time with additional neoprene-covered armrests for even more comfort. If you have never owned or tried a chair with arms then you really don’t know what you’re missing. Just this simple addition transforms a chair’s comfort levels and can make it worth the extra investment, albeit there is obviously a little added weight. The back is slightly higher than the R1, creating a hybrid chair that might be the answer to lots of carp anglers’ prayers.

Mainline needs no introduction as one of the biggest players in the game and the Balanced Wafters are another product that I believe will stand the test of time, and find a home in many anglers’ bait bucket. Even if you don’t use the boilie ranges, there’s certainly a benefit from having a tub or two because you simply can’t question the quality and proven flavour profiles. The undisputed Cell, Hybrid and now the newer combination of the Essential Cell are now available in 12mm, 15mm and 18mm, allowing you to fish them as singles, as part of a snowman, or a cheeky 12mm nestled in a solid PVA bag. Other flavours are also in the range, such as Salty Squid, Peaches & Cream, Essential IB, Aromatic Fish, Banoffee, Spicy Crab, High Leakage Pineapple and Diamond Whites.
