Terminal Tackle

Coated braid hook-link material that fared well in the TC Buyer’s Guide comparison. Available in gravel, weed green and silt finishes, in 15lb, 20lb, 25lb and 30lb versions. It’s easy to strip and ideal for tying many modern combi rigs. £12.

The TC team has been extremely impressed with the Razor Points, and we’ve all rated them as some of the sharpest hooks we’ve seen in a very long time. For me, as I’ve mentioned elsewhere in this issue, when you’re paying the sorts of prices that modern hooks command (these are over £1 less than some on the market), you’re entitled to expect them to be sharp straight from the packet. These do not disappoint, but more importantly, they are consistently sharp across all of the various patterns and in all sizes – the latter not being particularly true of some ranges. As usual, there is a Teflon-type coating, the camou benefits of which I have always doubted (on all hooks) but there’s no doubt that it makes the hooks smoother, so it’s presumed that they penetrate more easily.

Fast-sinking, supple, braided hook link, available in three colours – weed, silt and gravel. It’s available in 15, 20, 25 and 35lb breaking strains on 20m spools. £9. 50For more information contact your local ace stockist.

Brand-new mono material that is super-stiff for use with chod rigs and other stiff-rig presentations. It’s so new, in fact, that no price had been set when we wrote this review! Available in gravel, weed and silt variations and in multiple breaking strains. For more information go to www. acecarp.
