Considering how much we've seen these sell for in various shops this suit feels better than expected and has a few nice touches that belie its price tag. We're not fans of this style, where the fleece zips into an outer jacket. Sure, it gives you three garments in one but we find them a bit bulky and awkward. That said, it's personal choice and the Vantage is one of the better ones we've seen.

TC reader Phil Cox, from Coventry, says: "Unsure as to how much quicker one of these systems can actually make tying a PVA bag, I was a little sceptical when I first opened the tube. However, and bearing in mind that I never struggled to tie solid bags previously, it is actually remarkably good. "I don’t think it makes tying bags any easier but it certainly allows you to do so quickly and with the minimum of fuss, albeit I was a little slower, if anything, until I got used to it. Once sorted, though, it was a doddle and extremely rapid, so I guess the name fits.

As well as producing baits that are effective and which undoubtedly catch carp, Marukyu also has a 100 per cent environmentally friendly policy, by which I mean all of its baits are fish-friendly and environmentally safe. A classic example is this sweetcorn, which you may mistake for plastic imitation hook baits but which is, in fact, made of 100 per cent natural ingredients. It’s packed full of attractors and resembles real corn superbly. It’s also really easy to use and comes complete with a small amount of liquid attractor in the sealed pouch.
