The only problem with the renowned Delkim alarms is that they all look the same. Well not now, the Identikit helps to personalise yours and make them individual to you. With 26 nationalities to chose from, there’s an abundance of options to show off your patriotism. Among the national-flag dome labels the kit comes with a Delkim printed lanyard and attachment, which fits any Delkim receiver, allowing it to be kept close and hung around your neck.

We first received these some time ago and gave them a preview from the information provided. However, when the Delkim boys came into the office for some filming more recently, and explained exactly how the Smart Clips work, we all clamoured to get a set for ourselves. I’ve since used them on a few occasions and can honestly say that I wouldn’t use another line clip. Ideally suited to work in conjunction with Delkim’s complete indication system, they also work perfectly with any other bobbins and fit on any carp rod.

From dumpy pears, Hex distance, grippers to minute pink back leads, yes you heard me, pink back leads, Donk Leadz do them all. With the aim to offer a service to meet the angler’s needs no matter if you are fishing a lowland estate lake or highly pressured gravel pit, they do have a coating to suit. We have seen several versions of the craftsmanship and we are very impressed indeed, especially with the weed effect and peat versions, which look like they will easily take on liquids and substrate colour. The dark swivels are a nice addition to finish the lead off and, although some may say it’s pedantic, it’s my preference to be as subtle as possible.

The Tackle Box’s Lee Jackson says: I’m always interested when a new range of hooks comes onto the market, although generally a bit disappointed when they resemble patterns that are already available. These hooks are quite a lot different from the norm, however, and are made in the US using surgically sharpening technology. This technology creates a precision-ground, triple-sided point that penetrates with very little pressure, therefore hopefully converting more enquiries into bites. There are something like five patterns in the range, but the ones we have chosen to stock are what we consider are going to be the most popular, the Magnum Wide Gape, Magnum Curved Shank and Magnum Chod, all of which are available in the most popular carp hook sizes.
