At first glance, the steep price tag may look unappealing but grab a bottle of this stuff and give it a go. On opening the bottle a salty fish aroma hits you that resembles the smell of ground fish. Put a good helping of the liquid onto a hook bait and the thickness sticks brilliantly, even on impact with the water. With it being PVA-friendly I wouldn’t be averse to putting a squirt or two in a bag to increase the pulling power or adding it to a stick mix.

The newest glasses in the Fortis range sees a slight move away from fashion designs with the Wrap instead offering a more traditional look, yet with modern lines. The wraparound design offers full protection and peripheral vision, as well as eliminating light ingress. Vents in the upper frame prevent steaming and two lens options cover all types of light conditions. They’re also very light and comfortable to wear for long periods and offer UV400 protection, as well as the same polarising properties of the rest of the impressive range.

We booked ourselves a six night session on one of the more popular venues in hope of a few chunks. To be honest I'd have never of guessed just how much time and effort goes into booking a trip, and the cost for that matter, but with bait/tackle and everything finally sorted we loaded up and headed off late Friday afternoon. We endured a long but relatively smooth drive and arrived in the early hours of Saturday morning.
