KORDA KONTOUR FLUOROCARBON MAIN LINE


KORDA spent three years field-testing their specialist Kontour Fluorocarobon main line to ensure they got it spot on, and they’re reaping the benefit now.


One of their ‘longest field-tested


products’, they chose to release it in just one breaking strain – 12 lb.


‘Fluorocarbons are generally known as


being “wiry” and “brittle”, however Kontour casts well, sinks rapidly to the bottom and is extremely hard wearing,’ Korda’s Jon Mann told us.


‘As a main line this product will suit anglers of all abilities and styles, and aid them to catch more fish,’ he added.


It’s priced £19.99 for a 200 metre spool.

DYNAMITE BAITS FLURO POP-UPS


IMPROVED with brighter colours and enhanced flavours, Dynamite’s Fluro Pop-ups have proved to be great attractors. ‘We chose and blended together flavours that were proven to catch fish, and that


we knew would catch carp. The Fluros were launched in 15 mm and 20 mm sizes and, although aimed towards carp anglers, match and specialist anglers soon realised their potential and started to carry a pot or two with them,’ Dynamite’s Mark Williams explained. ‘The beauty of Fluros is that you can use them straight from the pot, glug them for


added flavour leakage or cut them down to different shapes and sizes. We’ve had reports of anglers catching big fish using them as a single hook bait presented in mid-water, popped-up an inch or two off bottom, on all manner of rigs, but especially the chod rig, and using them in a snowman rig to add colour and buoyancy to the hook bait. The options are endless.’ Available in easy-to-store, screw-top pots containing enough pop-ups for at least a season. The range of flavours in bright colours are: Pineapple & Banana, Monster Crab, Squid & Octopus, Strawberry & Scopex, Haith’s Robin Red, Coconut Cream, Mulberry Florentine, Mussel & Anchovy and Tutti Frutti. And the good news is that following the success of the 15 and 20 mm Fluros, Dynamite have just


launched a 10 mm version in the same colours and flavours that are likely to be guaranteed winners. RRPs are £5.99 for all three sizes.


Dynamite Fluros – the fish won’t miss these, the colours or the flavours!


from the ever-expanding MuckBoot range.


MuckBoots designed the first wellies made from neoprene (aerated natural rubber), the material used in maritime survival suits.


Neoprene is 100 per cent waterproof and very warm, lightweight and flexible, making the boots incredibly comfortable and supportive.


They’re made from a complete, 5 mm thick, stretchy, neoprene ‘bootie’, covered with natural rubber for durability.


And it’s The Avon and Derwent styles that have proved the most popular. The former comes in Real Tree camouflage with a special lining that promotes air circulation for optimum cooling and comfort in temperatures from minus 20 degrees to plus 20 degrees Centigrade. Other features include an oil resistant sole, classic cut tread, a removable footbed for additional insulation and cushioning, anti-shock heel and a special rim so that they can be kicked off easily. Available sizes are 4-13. Expect to pay around £79.99. The Derwent comes in full or


mid-height designs, in moss, navy or black, and boasts a reinforced toe cap and instep, and double lining. It has a £59.99 price tag.


Probably the most comfortable angling boot out there – the MuckBoot Avon.
