Nash H Gun Dwarf Rods 9ft 2.75lb Tc
Total Carp Staff  |  Dec 20, 2014  |  First Published: Dec 19, 2014  |  0 comments
TC Reader Matthew Rynor says: I recently received the Dwarf rods for my 13th birthday present and decided to send my review in to Total Carp. Due to my small size I find 12ft rods a bit of a handful, so the Dwarfs are great. I have fished up to 50 yards with a baited rig, as they lend themselves much better to the small waters I fish. I couple them with small Baitrunner reels, making the setup lightweight.

Sonik Tournos 10000 Reel
Total Carp Staff  |  Dec 20, 2014  |  First Published: Dec 19, 2014  |  0 comments
Following the success of the Tournos reel range, namely the 8000 and smaller 6000fs Black, Sonik has added to it with the Tournos 10000. Similar in design to the 8000, it has been beefed up to cope with longer-range fishing and an angled spool lip and improved line lay will reduce friction, improving overall distance. The sturdy body and insides make the reel feel built to last. Neat touches like the twin line clips allow you to clip up to multiple spots.

Shimano X Aero Baitrunner Reel
Total Carp Staff  |  Dec 19, 2014  |  0 comments
Since the release of the original Baitrunner from Shimano in the 1980s, 25 years of development, research and passion has pushed them to the launch of the brand-new Baitrunner X-Aero models. Combining the much-loved traditional Baitrunner free-spool leaver with a more modern and desirable large ‘Aero Concept’ spool results in the next evolutionary step for Baitrunners, offering the attractive characteristics of big-pit reels but with the smooth fish-playing attributes associated with Baitrunners. The larger spool also helps to increase the retrieval distance to just less than a metre with one turn. Utilising Aero Wrap II technology and a two-speed oscillation ensures precise line lay, aiding in casting and general line care.

Sticky The Krill Pink Ones
Total Carp Staff  |  Dec 19, 2014  |  0 comments
I have been using The Krill for around six months and have gained a lot of confidence in the bait. When I first saw these cheeky little Pink Ones I thought they would be a great addition to my pop-up collection. As well as matching the same food signals I have been trying to establish as a food source, the hi-viz pink gives a visual element that works fantastically when fishing over large spreads of bait or as high-attract singles. With the choice of 12mm and 16mm there’s plenty of scope for various presentations, from fishing in conjunction with PVA bags, snowman steups, chods and more.

Gardner Ultra Skin
Total Carp Staff  |  Dec 19, 2014  |  0 comments
Coated hook links are by no means a revelation in carp fishing, having been around for many years. However, the brand-new Ultra Skin from Gardner has many attributes that have been significantly improved in terms of colour, ease of use, feel and finish. Available in three breaking strains, there’s a version that will cater for every angler’s needs. The 15lb has proven particularly popular with specimen and carp anglers alike; with a fine diameter of 0.
