Carp

This legendary hook pattern has been further refined and improved to make it the go-to hook for hinged stiff rig and chod rig presentations. Compared with its predecessor the Mk-2, the super sharp point is longer and finer and more inclined towards the shank for a stronger shape. The point is also in-line with the 13 degrees out-turned eye so all the force is straight along the point section of the hook, rather than across the gape making them incredibly strong.

ESP Zig & Floater Mono, This clear, semi-buoyant mono is ideal as a hook link for zig rig and floater fishing applications. Featuring a fine diameter to knot strength ratio, it is tough and durable and has just the right amount of stretch to make it perfect for combining with smaller hooks. ESP Zig & Floater mono knots well and although the breaking strain is not underrated, optimum knot strength can be achieved with a carefully tied five turn grinner or palomar. Available on 100m spools and in the following sizes: 8lb (3.63kg) 0.23mm 10lb (4.54kg) 0.26mm 12lb (5.45kg) 0.28mm

Captiv-8 Flavoured Colourants are designed to give your Expander Pellets or any hookbait, feedbait or groundbait incredible visual attraction and infuse them with proven attractors for the ultimate edge. Apply them directly to your bait or in your soaking and mixing water. Remember a little goes a long way!

Sticky Baits Pure Calanus Hydro 500ml Pure Calanus Liquid Hydrolysate is one of the most exciting steps forward in marine-derived protein sources in many years. It is 100% sustainable yet contains an almost unparalleled amino acid profile. Pure Calanus benefits from high levels of some of the most essential and attractive amino acids for all fish species. These provide water-soluble attraction and nutrition that is highly stimulating to carp. This wonderfully salty, super-soluble liquid is incredibly low in fat and high in water-soluble protein. It pumps out attraction at a rapid rate, transmitting food signals far and wide. Its uses are only limited by your imagination; its relatively thin viscosity means it will penetrate boilies and pellets with ease before releasing a tantalising wave of attraction once applied to your chosen spot.

Natural, organic, unrefined and packed with nutrients Hemp oil with its high levels of Omega 6 is THE most attractive and enriching oil available. It boasts a complex but near perfect amino profile identifying the reason that fish are so attracted to it.

Created to perfectly complement our premium boilie range Water soluble feed stimulants, amino acids, palatants and attractants slowly release a powerful flavour trail through the water column Excellent for soaking and rehydrating boilies for added slow flavour release and soaking pellets or adding to spod/particle mixes Available in strong 500ml screw cap bottle Not PVA friendly

This pattern is the culmination of striving to design the perfect all round beaked point carp hook. The Gripper was subject to various design tweaks through the development process and the end result was well worth waiting for! The super fine, long curved point is the perfect shape and during testing, provided exceptionally secure hook holds. Other features include a 10-degree in-turned eye (slightly less than the Classic to allow for the inclined beaked point), heavy forging and of course, the slick PTFE Tufflon coating. New manufacturing techniques including both high temperature and cryogenic tempering have produced significantly stronger hooks with more durable, long life points. Cryogenic tempering is a process used to improve the molecular structure of steel which in turn reduces stress and improves strength and wear resistance. It is used in many disciplines with Formula 1 engine parts being a classic example. Bench tests on initial samples proved to us that the new tempering processes combined with improved designs and heavy forging resulted in hooks that were 25-30% stronger than other Tufflon coated carp hooks in the same wire gauge. So rather than having to improve strength by simply increasing wire gauge, new manufacturing processes have allowed ESP to maintain optimum wire gauges for each size which allow for fine, ultra-sharp needle points which are now more durable than ever.

ESP Soft Ghost, Now even softer with more stretch, ESP Soft Ghost is an excellent hooklink or leader material particularly for wary carp in clear water. Being a pure fluorocarbon with the same light refractive index as water it is virtually invisible. A specific gravity of 1.78 makes it denser than water so rigs sink quickly and lie tight to the bottom. For maximum knot strength at the swivel end we recommend a 5 turn grinner or palomar and to attach the hook, a knotless knot or domhoff whipping knot.

A powerful concentrated fish oil with an unbelievably strong smell profile. With catfish primarily locating food through their sense of small.

Can also be used to glug and pre-soak your hookbaits creating a potent stand out option in amongst your free offerings.

Sticky Baits Mulbz Bait Spray The Bait Spray range has been designed as an alternative attractor to supplement the liquids already in each range. Although we swear by our Liquid Food and Glug ranges, they arent ideal for soaking hookbaits for prolonged periods of time, as their dense nature can dramatically affect the buoyancy of a pop-up or wafter and render your rig mechanics useless. Bait Sprays are a much lighter alternative, that easily absorb into your chosen hookbait, yet still pack the same punch as their thicker counterparts simply grab a tub of hookbaits and give them a couple of sprays to seriously boost their attraction!

Found in the silt of lakes and rivers and known to be one of the most irresistible natural food sources for coarse fish, bloodworm has always been a hugely successful fish bait, used in numerous forms. This deep red, pungent, bloodworm-rich liquid food has an incredible track record for helping big carp and coarse anglers get a bite when conditions are proving really tough. It combines a high content of fresh whole and blended bloodworms with pure marine protein and natural extracts to make a devastating fish catching liquid food.

Krill are small crustaceans, which live in the Antarctic Southern Ocean and contain both high quality protein and oil. Their protein contains essential amino acids and their oil is rich in nutritionally beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. Whole Krill Compound is a highly attractive, highly nutritious liquid food made from Fresh Whole Krill, which are clearly visible as they populate the various layers of your swim; this stimulates an intense natural feeding response that other baits are simply unable to achieve.

This highly concentrated hookbait booster is designed to be added to your Dairy Cream Tones to give them a powerful boost of attraction and maximise their angling performance at any time of the year.

This pungent natural liquid food is a highly successful bait additive which is made with high levels of our exclusively imported Malaysian Fermented Shrimp Extract (Belachan). Liquid Belachan Compound is a notoriously effective big Carp appetite stimulant and was kept a real secret for many years by top anglers who knew it to be a significant edge in their fishing.

Following the huge success of the original F1 Sweet Pellet Soak as a top match and coarse fishing bait, the NEW ‘Cool Water’ version offers all the same fish loving liquid ingredients but in a lighter and more subtle variation – ideal for fishing in cooler conditions, right down to icy winter temperatures. The liquid has all the same palatants as the original F1 Sweet Pellet Soak but these have been slightly reduced to make the liquid more subtle in cold water and in clear conditions associated with fishing in autumn, winter and early spring

ESP Anchor Braid, ESP has made an Anchor Braid which is extra dense and heavyweight designed to sink fast without the need for tungsten putty. Super supple and limp, it hugs the bottom following contours and undulations. This blend of high-tech fibres also provides excellent knot strength. 15LB and 20LB are available in low key weed green and gravel brown, Anchor Braid is a definite edge when fishing for pressured rig-shy carp.

This is the same classic curve pattern previously known as the ESP Raptor, but this new range has been made even better by stepping up the wire gauge in each size and giving them the Cryogen treatment. These Curves are now around 25% stronger than their predecessors while still retaining long fine needle sharp points which are now extra durable. These are highly effective in a whole variety of rig presentations (perfect for the Ronnie Rig) and their quick turning, anti-eject shape combined with a needle sharp point ensures exceptional hook holds.
