Nash Fang Hooks Introduction These hooks have been around for some time and I remember buying a few packs just before the Foot and Mouth epidemic broke out. The packets of hooks somehow got lost in my hook wallet and were forgotten. It was only when I had a run of hook pulls and point...

Nisa Feeders Introduction I have an admission. OK you are not going to fall off your chair or anything but an admission none the less. I am not very fond of feeders. You could come close to calling it hate but not quite just a rolling eyed acceptance that they have a place in my...

Dynamite Baits Marine Halibut Paste by Clint Walker The weather is getting much cooler now, and I've been looking for something to boost my barbel baits, so I thought I'd give this established product from Dynamite Baits a try.... I've already use quite a few of the 'Frenzied' range...
