ESP Carp Controllers
The ESP Carp Controller is far more durable than balsa or foam. The semi-transparent, non-reflective finish is especially unobtrusive underwater.

The special fluted shape provides extra stability both in flight and in water. The bomb weight on the bottom is aerodynamic for distance casting and balanced so that the controller sits low in the water, helping maintain position when mending the line. The high vis top is perfect for bite indication even at distance and the translucent body is unobtrusive - perfect for stalking wary surface feeding carp.

Features:
- Aerodynamic
- Minimum disturbance on impact
- Semi-transparent
- Ultralight
- Buoyant body is far more durable than balsa or foam

Available in: 5g, 10g or 15g

SENSAS Method Mix Dark Mackerel (1 kg)

Sensas Method Mix Dark Mackerel is a high-quality, specially developed bait with a superior recipe, specially adapted for the extremely popular and effective fishing with the Method Feeder technique. This food represents a perfect combination of rich fish components and specific working mechanics, designed to attract large carp, grass carp, large bream, babushka and barbel in commercial as well as wild waters. The main feature of this mix is ​​the dark mackerel flour base, which gives the food an extremely intense, natural and penetrating fish smell profile rich in oils, proteins and amino acids. The dark color of this lure provides an additional technical advantage as it blends perfectly with the darker bottom of most lakes and ponds, reducing the suspicion of large and wary fish that avoid bright and conspicuous spots in the feeding area.

Enterprise Sweetcorn Hair Stop

Available in either of the following options:
Mixed Colours (Red, Orange, White & Brown)
Mixed Fluoro (Yellow, Red, Orange, Pink & Green)
Niteglow, Blue & Green
Yellow

Our buoyant sweetcorn hair stops combine the fish attracting properties of our imitation corn, with the convenience of an easy to use hair stop, eliminating the need for a traditional dumbbell type stop.

Ideal for use with boilies, pellets, nuts etc, acting as a sight tag to further enhance their attraction, a tactic that many of the country’s top carp angler’s have adopted. Their buoyancy helps to counterbalance the weight of the hook bait, increasing the chances of a pick up.

Directions for use:-
Simply place the sweetcorn hair stop, grooved side up, into the hair loop before bulling the hair tight, ensuring the loop sits in the bottom of the groove.
Combined hair and hair stop. Use instead of a traditional hair stop to enhance the attraction of boilies, pellets etc.

Directions for use (Niteglow):-
Simply place the sweetcorn hair stop, grooved side up, into the hair loop before pulling the hair tight, ensuring the loop sits in the bottom of the groove. We recommend that you use our UV torch sold separately, for charging within 15 seconds. Charge times will vary depending on the type of torch being used.
Glow for up to 8 hours

Pacific Tuna Dumbell Wafters

These are slightly buoyant, durable wafters made with Pacific Tuna Base Mix to ensure they match our Pacific Tuna boilies and other products in our Pacific Tuna Range. They have a tough, nuisance fish-proof skin but can also be trimmed to achieve the desired buoyancy for optimum rig performance.

These dumbell wafters are available in a 10 x 15mm size.

Pacific Tuna Dumbell Wafters are designed for fishing in conjunction with Pacific Tuna Boilies and other products in the Pacific Tuna Boilie Range.

Pacific Tuna Dumbell Wafters Properties:

Tough skin reduces nuisance fish problems
Slightly buoyant, easy to trim to ‘rig balance’
Highly soluble attractors promote maximum leakage
Powerful, rich, long-lasting natural taste
Strong, distinctive, highly attractive savoury aroma
Colour-matched to Pacific Tuna Boilies
Contains the same base mix & liquids as Pacific Tuna Boilies
Contents:

10 x 15mm Dumbell Wafters = 65 baits per pot

Customer Guidance:

This product should be stored cool, dry and out of direct sunlight.

Soaking and coating these wafters in liquids will reduce their buoyancy.

We make our wafters so that they are slightly buoyant rather than critically balanced. This allows the angler to adjust their buoyancy by trimming them down to create a perfectly balanced rig.

BLEND Tungsten Putty

BLEND PUTTY has been developed after years of frustration using other products on the market. We've taken things right back and created what we think is the ultimate Rig Putty available. Just wait until you use this putty for the first time! As the front of the packaging indicates, it sticks to lines/hooklinks and stays on! A joy to use.

Modelled on a Sandeel, the Launch is designed to be super aerodynamic to achieve maximum distance from the shore or the boat. Its asymmetric design produces an exaggerated wobble on the retrieve and a fluttering motion on the drop.

For anyone who likes to fish with an inline lead set-up, this is the ideal choice when casting at long range. The Skyliner is based on exactly the same shape as our Swivel Distance Lead, so will cast a very long way thanks to its nose-heavy weight distribution, and is very stable in flight as well, even in cross winds, plus has good hooking potential when picked up by a carp. It features a camouflage coating and a hard plastic insert which allows it to be fished semi-fixed, and a Tail Rubber and rig tubing can be added to help prevent tangles.
