Having spent years watching our colleagues on the match and pole fishing magazines wearing Halkun Hunt’s clothing, I longed for the brand to launch into the carp market. The thing is, it was in no rush to produce green versions of the excellent kit, which featured Gore-Tex linings – the number-one waterproof and breathable fabric. Then, eventually, and exclusively to Yorkshire Carp, the green range was born and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on a test set. A year on and that set is my go-to clothing in any even remotely inclement weather conditions throughout the year.
