Having spent years watching our colleagues on the match and pole fishing magazines wearing Halkun Hunt’s clothing, I longed for the brand to launch into the carp market. The thing is, it was in no rush to produce green versions of the excellent kit, which featured Gore-Tex linings – the number-one waterproof and breathable fabric. Then, eventually, and exclusively to Yorkshire Carp, the green range was born and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on a test set. A year on and that set is my go-to clothing in any even remotely inclement weather conditions throughout the year.
It’s that time again when all the fair-weather anglers say farewell to the bank and head to the warmth of their living rooms. However, for you guys brave enough to face the weather, we’ll let you into a little secret and a suit that will make your fishing even more pleasurable. Chub has managed to produce an all-weather suit that won’t break the bank but doesn’t compromise on quality. It consists of a jacket, trousers and fleece and offers a fantastic amount of protection from the harsh winter winds and the rain that we so regularly receive.
