A lead clip is a lead clip, isn't it? Not anymore!

Fishing a variety of venues, be it on TC features or when fishing for myself, I need a line that is versatile enough for whatever situation I might face next. Having tested the 12lb and 10lb versions of the Tribal for some time, I settled on the latter, largely due to the fact that the breaking strain seems considerably higher than that stated on the spool. You pay for this extra strength with a bit more in the way of diameter, so it’s not for the really long casters. However, I rarely fish over 100 yards and the 10lb gets me out that far with some ease.

New khaki version of the brilliant Unleaded leader material. It’s extremely supple yet sinks like the proverbial stone. It’s also available in leader and hook-link breaking strains, making it hugely versatile too. Supplied on 20m spools.

Although coated hook links do not feature heavily in my fishing, I quite like this one over the period that I’ve played around with it. As the name suggests, it is very easy to strip the coating away from the inner braid, which is both supple and colour-matched to the outer. In all, I like this stuff, especially the green 25lb version, a spool of which I have retained for future use!Marc Coulson RRP: £11. 99Website: www.
