Not long after the Krank hook was conceived, Tom Dove hatched a plan to introduce a chod version, with an out-turned eye. His imagination was captured by the way that the continuously curving shank could mirror the curve of the chod rig, creating what many of us consider to be the ultimate chod hook. Just like the standard Krank hooks, the Krank Choddy has a beaked point and slight offset that combine to offer unrivalled hook hold security. They can of course be used with unstripped, coated braid or mono hook links to produce effective bottom-bait rigs too! The Krank Choddy is available in sizes 4, 6, 8 and 10, and in a barbless version too.
Buchu-Berry Pop-Ups These bright pink hookbaits include a special combination of attractors that have been used on the quiet for many, many years. We believe it to be one of the best attractor packages we have ever used in a hookbait! Buchu-Berry is a unique essential oil and palatant blend with a pungent, fruity aroma. This particular combination incorporates renowned aromatic sulphur compounds mixed with a very special feed-inducing palatant, which produces outstanding fluoro hookbaits.

Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid is one of our best selling products, it’s safe to say that this extremely universal liquid has led to the downfall of a huge number of carp over the years! We incorporate high levels of real blood worm into our products that emit the attractive properties of undoubtedly one of the carp’s greatest natural food sources. This natural liquid is designed to fool wary carp into thinking a bloodworm bed has recently been harvested. Once applied to the swim, the liquid creates a hazy cloud that sits close to the lakebed, giving fish the confidence to feed freely. The Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid perfectly compliments the Bloodworm Active Mix, but we also like to add some Bloodworm Pellets and crushed Bloodworm Boilies to finish of the mix. Not only is this “Cloudy” great for PVA mixes, it also makes a great addition to any spod mix to create a real haze in your swim. A definite must have! Cloudy Bloodworm Liquid is available in 1 litre jerry cans.

Trakker EQ Carbon Landing Net Lightweight and robust – the EQ Carbon Landing Net from Trakker is an exercise in net engineering perfection. It’s no wonder that the EQ in its name stands for equilibrium as this net is perfectly balanced and you won’t ever feel under any strain whilst you’re using it (even when you’re landing huge double figure carp). The 42 inch spreader arms are slotted into a stainless steel machined head block, ensuring that the base for this net is sturdy. After all, the spreader block is the point of the net which is likely to be under the most pressure, as it is the meeting point between the net (holding the fish which is exerting a downward pressure towards the water) and the handle (which you’re exerting an upwards pressure on in order to lift the fish from the water). This is why the spreader block on a net is often considered to be its weakest point – this isn’t the case on the Trakker EQ Carbon Landing Net. The net itself is made from mixed mesh. Meshing on a net is incredibly important, and Trakker has done everything in its power to ensure that not aspect of this net can damage the delicate scales of the fish. Wide weave on the sides of the net allows for almost uninterrupted water flow through the net, allowing you to enjoy full control of the net as you manoeuvre it under the water, yet tight meshing on the base of the net ensures that your fish is cradled carefully as you lift it from the water. The top corners of the EQ Carbon Landing Net have been reinforced, too, as this is the area of the mesh which experiences the most strain when landing your catch and the reinforcement significantly reduces the risk of the net ripping or tearing – extending the life of your net. As the name suggests, this is all topped off with a 6ft long carbon handle. The EQ Carbon Landing Net has an incredible reach, so you don’t have to worry about leaning precariously over the water to land your catch, and 6ft is generally considered the optimum handle length for most anglers fishing with a standard 12ft carp rod. Carbon is an outstandingly lightweight material, so this net is featherweight for its size and you’ll never have to worry about getting an aching arm as you hold out your net for your catch. This also makes the net very easy to transport, as you don’t have to worry about it weighing down your tackle bag. The EQ Carbon Landing Net is available in both olive and black mesh so, whether you have a modern all-black setup or you favour a traditional carpy olive, you’ll always be able to match your net to suit your look. Producing high quality tackle for the serious angler has been Trakker’s aim since it was established as Rainbow Angling Supplies in the 1980s and Trakker is committed to pushing the boundaries of tackle design possibility. A British company driven by its innovation, Trakker was born from the closure of Sheffield steel industry and has a rugged determination to live up to its incredible heritage – which it certainly does with this EQ Carbon Landing Net. The brand is most famous for its best selling luggage design, although it also produces a range of other tackle items to make life on the bankside as comfortable as possible. This includes bedchairs, bivvies, and cooking equipment – along with a whole range of landing nets to suit anglers on all budgets.
