The full name for these is Last Meter Safety Clip QC Link Hollow Leaders, which is a bit of a mouthful, but explains what they are. There are different leader versions available and one of two other variations but this is the one I’ve had a play with.
The leader sinks slowly, settling nicely over bottom debris, and the lead clips work well. The pack also includes anti-tangle sleeves for the rig and even small link loops to attach the end of the rig.
As with any angler I obviously bait up, whether I am in the boat, wading down the margins, or using a throwing stick, one piece of kit that has made my life easier is the Skorpion Bait Pouch.
With a generous capacity of over 2kg of boilies, depending on size of course, the pouch fits comfortably around my waist leaving both hands free for either quicker loading or for lowering my rig.
Even when walking around I still have it on me; a catapult in the elasticated slot, a few boilies in the bag and I can happily bait my way around the lake with a view to returning and checking the spots. A Velcro’d removable liner makes it easy to clean or equally separate baits if you need to.
Heading up the new range of Bank Bound clothing, this lightweight suit packs away into a tiny bag, making it supremely transportable and easy to store in your rucksack or carryall.
With a waterproof outer, breathable inner and mesh lining, it’s not just a single-layer packaway; there is a lot more to it than that.
Similarly, the trousers are of the same construction and both garments boast taped seams and waterproof zippers throughout. I really like this suit, especially for the price, and I love the fact that it packs away so small.

We still believe wellies have a place in carp fishing, allowing you to access the margins with ease, rove through the long grass and not worry about any puddles when pushing your barrow.
We wanted a welly that was warm as well as waterproof, and with a 3mm neoprene lining the Countryman retains your heat even when you are no longer on the move. To get them on and off with ease, they boast a full-length waterproof gusset complete with top-quality YKK zip. A sturdy and rugged rubber sole means you won’t be slipping and sliding all over the bank, and the kick heel means you can get them off without having to pull down on your muddy heel.
