Joe Carass gets out with a brand-new Maver pole that really impressed.
Working on Match Fishing magazine means that I get to see a lot of stuff before it actually comes out. Most of the brands out there are usually clambering for page space to make sure their new and exciting product gets in front of you guys. With the new Signature Pro range of poles from Maver, though, it was different.
The White Knuckle CX Thriller pole is just one of several new additions for 2014!
This is a power-packed, fully take-apart 8m carbon pole designed for bagging on carp lakes. It is light at just 650g, responsive, easy to use and super-strong, carrying an elastic rating of 24. The Thriller pole comes with a ready-elasticated tip section, as well as a free spare top-two kit that is also ready-elasticated. RRP: £105.

The Swim Searchers
Carp and F1s will often back off into space throughout the winter and a great way to exploit that is by using a light bomb or feeder setup that allows you to search the area without causing too much disturbance.
Short rods come into their own in this situation. The 8ft 6in FXT Match+ is the perfect rod for those winter snake lakes and smaller intimate commercial lakes.

Match Fishing’s David Haynes takes two new waggler rods from Rive for an outing.
Rive? That’ll be seatboxes then.
Well, yes, but not this time. The French tackle giant now has so many more items of tackle worth serious consideration than ‘just’ seatboxes.
