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.
The WorkHorse! Matt Godfrey takes to the bank of Aston Park Fisheries with one of the latest top-end poles from Sensas…
During the autumn I met Mark Downes at Barston Lakes to look at the new range of Sensas poles. I’m always straight in at the deep end on days like this, and I was no different this time. “Show me the best and most expensive one in the range,” is normally my opening gambit. This year, that’s the 895.
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.
