There is no shortage of good hooks available to the modern carp angler and in these, Prologic has raised its own bar significantly. With super-sharp points throughout the range, there are a host of patterns to cover all fishing situations. My only slight reservation here is that they carry numbers for their descriptions, such as XC2, XC5 and XC7, which don’t immediately tell you what they’re designed to be used for. That aside, most pop-up and bottom-bait presentations are more than catered for and each pattern looks relevant.

PUKKA!If choosing the right mono line is confusing, then it’s equally, if not more so, the case with braided lines. Although there isn’t the huge range of braids, compared with monos, they vary hugely from one to another. Sinking, floating, round, flat, fine diameter, multi filaments and plenty of other descriptions abound. In SUBbraid, Korda has painstakingly developed a braided line that sinks like a stone and, while it’s not as thin as traditional casting braids, isn’t quite so wide diametered as many sinking versions.

It was brought home just how popular this product was at this year’s Carp In The Park and having had a closer look it’s clear to see why. As a dual-purpose product it brings plenty of features to what would normally be a general product. The all-encompassing bivvy light offers adjustable cool white light and three separate grades of red, ideal for when the mozzies are out but you still need illumination in the bivvy. Offering up to 60 hours’ battery life from a single charge, the Hobo Glow also benefits from a power bank function, helping you to keep any electrical devices alive while out on the bank utilising a single USB port.

Bivvy lights are a very ‘Marmite’ type product; you simply either love it or hate it. What really dawned on me at this years Carp In The Park event was the amount of love going around for one bivvy light in particular the Hobo Glow. As a dual-purpose product it boasts a wide array of features to what would normally be a general product. The all-encompassing bivvy light, offers adjustable cool white light and three separate grades of red, ideal for when the mozzies are out but you still need some illumination in the bivvy.

PUKKA!I know we’re only in July but these bobbins are already making a play for product of the year, in my opinion. I was first privy to them when visiting ESP HQ, where I was allowed to see the CNC machines actually turning the acrylic and PTFE heads and many of the stainless components. That’s right, made in the UK, for the largest part. It was a seriously impressive operation and every piece that came out was identical to the last and perfect to the nth degree.

Dan Murrell’s verdict - I’m looking forward to further tests with these. These are as similar in pattern to my favoured 360 hooks (sadly, no longer available) as I’ve seen, so I borrowed them for ‘review’ before anybody else could! I like big hooks, so therefore tied up some 360s with the size 4 in conjunction with a size 11 ring swivel. The weight of the two allows me to not use any putty – the fewer components the better in my opinion – and it all balances perfectly. So far, so good – the rig has worked and a couple of carp that I’ve caught on them have been well nailed.
