Can’t wait to test! I’d not seen one of these before two castable units landed in the TC office and, at first, I have to admit to having been a bit sceptical. However, I then ventured on to the Fish Hunter website and marvelled at the videos for both the Pro and 3D units. Wow – if you’re into this sort of thing then these look absolutely brilliant. I wouldn’t use them for finding carp, but as a tool to map the contours of the lake bed they might just be a huge edge.

If you want nice bankware then you surely want to look after it and the team at Cygnet certainly has some nice gear to look after. Available in three sizes, the Snugs Pouch can be purchased to accommodate Snugs two rod (for buzz bars up to six inches wide), Snugs three-rod narrow (up to 9½ inches wide) and Snugs three-rod wide (up to 11½ inches wide). Protecting the buzz bar, alarm and indicators when in transit, these are great items to own to eliminate damage to your expensive tackle. The pouch is constructed from durable neoprene and features a well-padded divider inside to hold your receiver or range of indicator spares.

Lee Jackson’s verdict - I’m amazed at the build quality and extensive range. 4/5 Tackle Box’s Lee Jackson says: In a market that is already crowded and occupied by big names when it comes to stainless steel metalware, it is always a big risk for a new company to come to the table with a new range of banksticks, buzz bars, pods and accessories, but that is exactly what Summit Tackle has done. We were all very surprised and impressed at just how good a quality this range of metalware actually is. It covers everything from rod pods that are aesthetically very pleasing to the eye and that can be set up in seconds, to adjustable banksticks from nine to 18 inches that come with no-loss thumb lock screws and with a flat-profile inner section to minimise twisting, and two and three-rod adjustable buzz bars in various widths.

The last metre is the most important one when carp fishing. If anything there lets you down it can be devastating. We spend so much money on rods, reels, bivvies and barrows but that doesn’t catch you fish. The hook and the end-game setup are the crucial elements to your success and Prologic has released a wide range of terminal products that will help you put more carp on the bank.
