The super-compact body of the S5 is similar in appearance to Nash’s more expensive, all-singing, all-dancing alarm, but features just an on/off switch. It also has a built-in line guard and red run and latching LED. I found, in testing, that the indication was superb, especially for an alarm in this price bracket. There is a remote version available (£49.

I was in desperate need of a catty when this landed in the office and had to be tested, so off I went, bait in hand to give it a good go. As far as I was aware a catapult is a catapult, however the Korda Katapult has a few improvements on other products I have used. The ball-joint system that attaches the elastic to the frame, vastly reduces the amount of stress on the elastics, allowing them to last longer even when you exert more pressure on them for ’pulting out larger quantities of bait or baiting at further distance. I have found this catty to be very effective for ranges up to 60 yards and, in my honest opinion, if you want to go further then roll out the throwing stick or spod rod.

The return of Star-Flite. . . The Star-Flite brand of rod pod was originally developed by the accomplished engineer Brian Ellis back in 2001 and, as a result of some success with it, Brian went on to design and manufacture a limited number of what are now known as the Star-Flite S3 banksticks and buzz bars.

When I opened the small box that contained this line there was a note inside from TC editor Marc Coulson, which explained that this line was bulletproof. In fact, Marc said he rated it as one of the strongest lines he’d ever used and he’d deliberately sent it to me following a telephone conversation where I’d enquired about strong lines. So, after a couple of months using it, would I agree with him? Absolutely! The lake I fish is pretty weedy and this, plus the naturals that abound in it, put any main line under immense scrutiny. So far, where I’d expect to change the last few metres of any line after almost every trip, this has stood up much better than most.
