Near Christmas Cracker For Bury Hill
Total Carp Staff  |  Dec 15, 2015  |  0 comments
With the best December weather conditions for many years, Phil Kingsbury from Southwater, West Sussex made the most of his session this week on Temple catching the infamous GHOSTIE at arguably its record weight of 39lb 10oz Phil fished peg 7 on the road bank landing the monster lunchtime on Saturday, and just to show that it was no fluke, he went on to also land a 25lb common. Phil’s favoured Tiger Nut boilies once again did the business, this time a single 15mm critically balanced single boilie, fished tight to the island over a few freebies. Looks like a dead cert for Decembers Fish of the Month at the Surrey venue Having previously been regularly caught at weights around 39lb, the last couple of years saw Temple’s most infamous resident drop weight to sub 35lb. However, the past year has seen her slowly put weight back on being last caught in October 2015 at 37lb 15oz by Connor Cook.

Trakker Armolite Cg 3 Stove

Dan Murrell’s verdict - my winter sessions just got a lot cosier. Having broken my previous stove some time ago, I have been using my friend’s rather old school meths burner. Although it has done what it needed to do, my kettle is stained black, my hands usually stink and it can take an age to cook a meal. hen Trakker came into the office bearing goodies, I was nominated try out the Armolife CG-3 stove and thank god I was.

Fox Bedchair Range
Total Carp Staff  |  Nov 24, 2015  |  0 comments
Bedchairs have become increasingly more comfortable over the years, which every angler is grateful for, but equally they have become higher-priced luxury items that, unfortunately, not all anglers can take advantage of. Well that’s all about to change because the guys behind Fox have been busy bridging the gap between comfort and price, making comfortable bedchairs accessible to everyone across three new product launches. The Warrior 6 Leg bedchair is the entry-level product designed with one goal firmly in mind – value for money within its price bracket at £109. 99.

Trakker Tempest Brolly
Total Carp Staff  |  Nov 24, 2015  |  0 comments
For whatever reason, Trakker fell off my radar a little in recent years, which is a shame given that I used to be very close to the Sheffield-based company a few years back. I remember receiving what was then the first production version of the then-famous and brand-new Pioneer. I loved it, and pictures of yours truly reviewing it in Total Carp adorned the walls of Trakker headquarters for several years. So, when Trakker’s Gary Hood (a former DHP colleague) brought the Tempest brolly to the office and asked me to use it for a while on the bank I was extremely excited.

Chub Precision Stainless £ Various
Total Carp Staff  |  Nov 24, 2015  |  0 comments
As the modern trend has seen numerous companies launch black bankware over the last year or two, there is still no shortage of decent stainless-steel stuff out there. The Precision gear from Chub boasts a comprehensive range of banksticks and buzz bars, as well as a few accessories. It’s very well made and feels as solid and sturdy as you’d expect from stainless. It’s also relatively inexpensive too – albeit proper stainless does carry a bigger price tag than, say, aluminium stuff.
