So you thought bivvies were all pretty much the same. I’m guessing a pole, material, a few pegs and your away – well think again. The Airflow uses quick-inflate ‘air poles’ that have replaced traditional heavy metal poles for a quicker set-up and unique design. Supplied with a quick-action pump, the rigid and puncture-resistant tubes are inflated within minutes to form a resilient shelter that on testing proved to be at least as stable as any conventional pram-hood bivvy.
The Okuma CB-60 really does look the part. With its exceptional understated and, dare I say it, carpy cosmetics, the Custom Blacks boast great performance in a compact yet durable bundle.
In addition, I simply love the excellent value for money, making this a truly affordable, functional big pit reel. It has a super-fast clutch, sealed bearings and a wooden handle that has been outfitted with a weight on one side, so it always angles down so you don’t have to align your handles perfectly every time.
Available in blue, grey or wine (red) the Hemlock boasts a 65 per cent cotton and 35 per cent polyester build, offering you a super soft feel, great breathability and, of course, durability. Ideal for use all day every day or if you want to bring a touch of class to the bank, the Hemlock can be purchased in Small, Medium, Large and X-Large and each boasts a front kangaroo pocket that has a dedicated mobile phone pocket within that too.

The Tackle Box’s Lee Jackson says: A good quality and very affordable carp rod range built on natural gloss grey carbon blanks with classic cosmetics, including full-length cork handles and ‘fold-friendly’ ringing for safer and more convenient storage and transportation. All of the rods in the range have a progressive action for crisp handling and all-round casting and fish-playing performance and benefit from The Tackle Box’s exclusive lifelong warranty. The range comprises 12ft, 10ft and 9ft rods, all of which have a 3lb test curve, and a 12ft 4lb test curve spod/marker rod.
LEE JACKSON’s VERDICT “An awesome rod for quality and affordability” 9/10

The Carp Couture Hoodie boasts a double-lined hood for increased warmth and an elasticated chest pocket for your receiver or mobile. With extra thought, the team behind Carp Couture has extended the arms to keep you covered when casting, playing fish and suchlike, as well as lining the middle pocket with fur and stitching ingenious glove inserts to keep your hands nice and toasty. With zipped pockets and longer than average ankle cuffs, these are the perfect solution when wearing Wellingtons or boots without your trousers riding up and, like the hoodie, are available from S to XXL and a custom measuring service is available.

It is no surprise that Sticky offers some of the softest baits around, even when you buy shelf life. This is great because many anglers love a soft bait, yet it can present a problem on the hair. Well not any more. By simply adding eggs you can now roll your own dedicated hook baits with everything in this one tub, even the instructions! The great edge is that you can tweak or tailor your mix to suit your rigs and whatever little edges you may have up your sleeve.
