Reuben Heaton is the most prestigious and highly regarded scales manufacturer in the angling industry. Offering a broad range of weighing accessories, we are happy to review the fantastic, high-performance digital variety known as the 7000 Series Digital Scale. There are two varieties available, both weighing in small increments of 25g/1oz divisions, the first covering fish weights of up to 66lb/30kg and the larger variety coping with 132lb/60kg. To ensure durability, these are also waterproof, shockproof and constructed around a high-impact polycarbonate body.

Despite an extremely mild winter, with some cold winds on the way and even the possibility of the odd snow flutter, it might be a little soon to overlook winter clothing. We’ve checked out some new winter garments from Prologic and they are very impressive. Sold individually, both items boast an awesome PU lamination, which gives 100 per cent waterproof protection while retaining a breathability of 3. 000mvp, so as well as keeping the water out, it does its best to limit the wearer’s sweating.

Dan Murrell’s verdict - Unrivalled comfort, super-sturdy and lightweight. Simply brilliant. I have always been a fan of big beds. I like space and I like being able to move, and over the years I have extensively used the Nash Wideboy, and more recently the larger variety of the Avid Benchmark.
