15 items to put on your shopping list this month

Here’s the items that will be showing up on your bank statement this month…

1. Kodex Genomic MGP Wide Gape Hooks

A brilliant all-round hook pattern that can be used for pop-up or bottom bait presentations (although we prefer it for bottom bait work). It’s a super-sharp pattern, thanks to the special Kodex micro-ground point, which is honed to within an inch of its life for excellent hooking capability. “GIMME”: £2.99; kodextackle.com

2. Vass Winter Smock Khaki Edition

Nothing ruins a good session like being cold and wet. This new ‘Winter’ version of the successful ‘Team Vass 175 Unlined’ range features a padded lining for exceptional warmth. Waterproof, windproof and breathable it may be; heavy and bulky it is not… and this new design includes hand pockets, a redesigned hood with clear peak and an adjustable lower hem. “GIMME”: £69.99

3. Prologic Rig Tool

A four-in-one rig tool that made from high-grade aluminium. It features a line stripper, line cutter, knot puller and a tapered point to help you shape the perfect D-Rig. “GIMME”: £14.99; prologicfishing.com

4. Pinpoint-Hooks Nexgen+ hooks

Pre-sharpened hooks, available in a range of patterns. Let’s face it, even if you’re pretty happy with your hook-sharpening prowess, you’re going to struggle to beat these babies. This really is a huge edge! Choose from Chod, Curv, Long, Conti and Wide patterns to suit your angling. “GIMME”: £4.99; pinpoint-hooks.de

5. Sticky Baits Krill Floaters

As you’d expect from Sticky, these are no ordinary floaters! They’ve been treated with two special coatings that break down as soon as the baits hit the water, drawing carp to them as they do. You can find them in 3, 6 and 11mm versions. “GIMME”: £12.99; stickybaits.com

6. Prologic Road Sign Chest Waders

While they inherit Prologics wader-making legacy, the Road Sign knows a few 2017 tricks. Step inside the extremely tough 700 PVC fabric outer and you’ll be greeted to a soft, stretchy polyester fabric inside which isn’t just comfortable but it means you won’t overheat. And the quad-welded seams and double layered fabric on the knees means they’ll handle decades of abuse and water submersion. Available in sizes 6 to 12. “GIMME”: £79.99; prologicfishing.com

7. Gardner Finger Stall Spodding/Casting

A supple, leather finger stall that will protect your digit while you give it full beans with a braided leader. It Velcros in place, so it won’t go flying off, and is available in two sizes and left and right-handed versions (they’ve thought of everything, those Gardner chaps!). “GIMME”: £4.99; gardnertackle.co.uk

8. Bait-Tech Super Cloud Zig Mix

A mix of high-grade food particles that are ‘active’ once in the water column. The mix has been designed to hold carp in the upper layers, feeding around your zig hookbaits. It’s supplied in a handy, reusable bucket. “GIMME”: £10.99 for 3kgs; bait-tech.com

9. Aqua Roving Cool Bag

Aqua have been racking up the compliments for their cooler bags for years. They’re simple, reliable and well-made. Their Black Series Roving Cool Bag is definitely going to find favour with those on overnighters, as it’ll accommodate up to 4kgs of boiled food or just enough food to see you through until the morning. Padded walls and foil-lining provide excellent insulation to keep your produce cooler for longer and the hardwearing, outer-material is produced from 600-denier polyester so it won’t rip. “GIMME”: £25.99; aquaproducts.co.uk
