Can’t wait to test! I’d not seen one of these before two castable units landed in the TC office and, at first, I have to admit to having been a bit sceptical. However, I then ventured on to the Fish Hunter website and marvelled at the videos for both the Pro and 3D units. Wow – if you’re into this sort of thing then these look absolutely brilliant. I wouldn’t use them for finding carp, but as a tool to map the contours of the lake bed they might just be a huge edge.

We love these!After having extensively used the original Bivvy Lite Duo, I was keen to receive the IR version. Let me just say I am only recently converted to bivvy lights, and just how handy they are. Basically building on the best-selling bivvy light, RidgeMonkey has now added a handy remote function. Still boasting the dual white and red colour options with twin brightness settings, you can effortlessly switch between the colour variations and brightness options at the click of a button.

Lee Jackson’s verdict - I’m amazed at the build quality and extensive range. 4/5 Tackle Box’s Lee Jackson says: In a market that is already crowded and occupied by big names when it comes to stainless steel metalware, it is always a big risk for a new company to come to the table with a new range of banksticks, buzz bars, pods and accessories, but that is exactly what Summit Tackle has done. We were all very surprised and impressed at just how good a quality this range of metalware actually is. It covers everything from rod pods that are aesthetically very pleasing to the eye and that can be set up in seconds, to adjustable banksticks from nine to 18 inches that come with no-loss thumb lock screws and with a flat-profile inner section to minimise twisting, and two and three-rod adjustable buzz bars in various widths.

Save money and space with the awesome Double System from Castaway PVA. Utilising the tried and tested PVA formula found across the range, the Double System simply compacts two mesh dispensers, 25mm and 35mm, with plunger into one handy sized package. The formula boasts anti-ladder and fast-melt properties to ensure you are fishing efficiently every time you tie up a bag. Supplied in a waterproof container, your PVA will always remain in tiptop condition ready to use straight from the tub.

With six products among the newly launched Nash PVA range, we managed to get our hands on a few to see if they are as good as we had heard. First is the Webcast PVA. Priced at £7. 99 for seven metres and supplied in a shorter bait-bucket-friendly dispenser complete with plunger, we felt this was great value for money.
