Marc Coulson’s verdict. . . Excellent sinking braid and not silly money.

Awesome!There are a few underwater cameras available these days but none that can do what the FishSpy does, and that is to beam live pictures back to your phone or device in real time. What’s even more impressive is that it does so without the need for any phone signal, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi because it creates its own Wi-Fi signal unique to each unit and synced device. So, how does it work? Well, in layman’s terms, you cast it out as you would a marker float and let it up to the surface, at which point it will begin connection to the synced device. Once connection is established you can live view exactly what the camera sees.

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.

Lee Jackson’s verdict - Well worth a look, especially at this price! 4/5 Tackle Box’s Lee Jackson says: Although these indicator heads have been available for a number of years, the first time I actually got to use a set was on a trip to Rainbow Lake in France in 2015 and I’ve used them ever since. What impressed me most was that even when the LED on my bite alarm was trying its best to burn a hole in my retinas, the bobbin still stood out. The Power Glo heads are available in five colours – red, green, amber, white or blue – and come supplied with a line clip and are compatible with all Solar and most other companies’ chains and hockey sticks. Each head is powered by two supplied LR44 batteries, and once the head is turned on, the LED in the bobbin is switched on and becomes highly visible once it gets dark.
