The use of fluorocarbon has become increasingly common in match fishing of late, having various uses.
The release of Pure by Guru has seen a real quality line hit the market, and one that anglers are already raving about.
Firstly, Pure offers the ideal hooklength material for light pole rigs. In diameters from 0.
What makes a good shot? We’d say one that has an open, even cut, that can be nipped on to thick and thin lines and stays in place, but can also be moved without damaging the line.
Available in sizes from No8 to No12, that’s exactly what the new Guru shot is. Sourced from the renowned ZLT shot producer, each batch is specially inspected for consistency and quality. In the neat and compact containers, which are secure but also easy to open without spillages, they’re sure to be a big hit with matchmen.
There are several of these in the new range, but this snazzy little number caused a stir in the office, as there was an argument as to who would have it! It looks the part, is made from quality materials, and will keep your tabs toasty in the cold!
RRP: £10. 99

These are a product developed for one thing, but that are sure to have a whole range of uses!
Originally, they were designed for soaking pellets in, as they allow you to lift out and drain your pellets at whatever point you want. They fit neatly into the Guru bait tubs, and are available in two sizes. They’re not only perfect for soaking pellets, however, as they make the ideal tub for storing and draining any baits that you keep in water, allowing you to quickly lift off the strainer to remove the bait from the water, before bagging it up for the next session.
You can use the strainers at home or on the bank, and another perfect use for them is when using meat, to soak the meat in water – preferably warm water – to strain and take off the fats that cause much of it to float and drift away in any tow.
Commercial masters Andy Bennett and Paul Holland have signed a new bait sponsorship deal with the Angling Bait Company.
The duo, who are also sponsored by Tackle Guru, are very excited about the move.
Andy said: “I amdelighted to be joining TheAngling Bait Company. I am looking forward to having a big say in the groundbait development, and knowing exactly what I’ll befeeding, as not a lot of people know what core ingredients make up the groundbaits that they use.
Matt Godfrey smashed his way to victory in the penultimate round of the Lindholme Natural Baits League, winning the match in emphatic style with a 43-4-0 net of F1s. Drawn on peg 9 on Willows Lake, Matt caught quality F1s on maggot tactics.
In second place was Paul Christie. Paul, who also drew on Willows, again caught quality F1s on maggots for 26-1-0.
Tiny Ticklers!Jake Fowles gets out on the bank with the Commercial King Tickler range of rods from Browning…
Since starting here at Match Fishing a lot of my tackle testing has revolved around poles, so when features editor Matt Godfrey tasked me with testing the latest bite-size rods from Browning, I welcomed the opportunity with open arms. The Commercial King Carp Tickler and lighter F1 Tickler are 7ft rods, with the construction being one main section and an interchangeable tip section, with the choice of either a 0. 5oz or 1oz tip provided as standard. This allows for a quick and easy setup, with storage in a ready rod bag or the provided rod sleeve made simple.
