A range of bass lure fishing rods that have been designed for the angler who will be fishing with surface lures predominantly. The fast action blank has been developed to cast surface lures to distance, with a high degree of accuracy. This fast blank allows the angler to transmit as much action as possible to the lure with less movements on the rod, especially when fishing with braided lines. Ideal for fishing with all types of surface action from walking the dog to more extreme popping motions. Each rod is finished with a dark grey, black and silver colour scheme, special attention to detail around the reel seat gives this rod a modern look usually found on much more expensive rods. Each tip ring has an orange accent, ideal when fishing in low visibility conditions. A VSS reel seat securely holds the reel in place while K Style Spinning Guides ensure trouble free, efficient casting of surface lures.

A trio of head turning, modern ultralight rods for the street and LRF angler. These stunning rods feature a cool, urban camo colour scheme designed to appeal to the fashion-conscious light game angler. Under the hood, these rods are serious fishing tools designed with the specific actions required for fishing with light lures from plugs to metals to soft plastics.

The tip blends into a more powerful butt section to help with casting and when playing fish. All rods feature quality fittings including K spinning guides. The two lighter models are fitted with an appealing skeleton reel seat for a minimalist look and to blend in well with smaller, lighter reels, they also feature an urban camo EVA rear butt grip. The heavier model is fitted with a VSS style real seat, for comfort when fishing with larger reels. The rods feature an orange accent on the tip ring for low visibility fishing situations.

Designed for the travelling, ultra-light angler that can cast weights between 2 and 7g. It breaks down into 4 sections measuring 60cm and comes with both a solid and a tubular tip. It is small enough to fit in hand luggage, ideal for taking on holiday or to keep in the car. The ideal rod for the roving angler who is walking miles to their chosen water, it packs down neat enough to fit in a drink’s holder on a rucksack. It measures 6ft 11in when assembled. Coming with two tip styles, this eliminates the need for the angler to take two different rods on holiday with them, the one rod can do it all. The Solid Tip has been designed to be used with jig heads on the drop and for reducing the resistance felt by species that inhale a bait. The soft tip provides very little resistance to the fish but will twitch and curve as a fish is playing with the bait. Ideal for shy biting fish. The Tubular Tip has been designed for working smaller crankbaits and heavier metal lures. It offers you more feel and is great for bouncing jig heads along the bottom. Our HTO Rock Rover has become a firm favourite with travelling and mobile anglers, it has caught some stunning fish from across the globe well into double figures, from hard fighting pike and zander in the UK to small tuna in warmer climes.

The HTO Worm Weights are drilled cone shapped sinkers which are designed to give extra weight to soft lures. This can be used to increase casting distance and also alter the depth and manner in which the lure works. A few options are to either slide the weight on the line directly above the lure so that it rests on the eye of the hook. You can then either lock it in place with a sliding stop or allow it to slide freely on the line. Another possibility is to stop the Worm Weigth a foot or two above the lure. NOW LEAD FREE so you can safely use them in both fresh and salt water.

A range of weights designed for the light lure angler made from lead free material, so they are safe to use in freshwater lure fishing. Each lead is finely coated with a dark, matt, gravel dust to ensure each lead is dull, allowing the angler to create subtle rigs that focus on the movements of the lure first and foremost. Available in four different patterns for various lure fishing patterns.

A micro version which weighs just 2g and is 50mm in length is available for light lure anglers, designed for provoking a response from rising trout on rivers and other surface taking, small species across freshwater and saltwater.

An extensive range of weights designed for lure fishing that are made with 97% tungsten. Tungsten is an ideal material to make fishing weights out of when setups need to be scaled back and refined. Tungsten is 1.7 times heavier than lead, which means each tungsten weight is approximately 50% smaller than its lead equivalent, having smaller leads allows the angler to reduce the scale of their rigs, allowing them to conceal them better and reducing losses in snaggy areas. This harder material also won’t damage when bounced against rocks and transmits more feedback to the angler about the type of terrain they are fishing over when combined with braided lines. Tungsten is also eco-friendly; our weights don’t contain any lead which is better for the environment and fisheries.

A great bug lure that can be fished over snags and obstacles without losing the ability to attract fish.

The Mace is a more experimental design of LRF lure from HTO that has worked well in the testing stages. Featuring a more angular body to traditional light game lures, the idea was to displace water in an attractive way to predators. The long thin tail is designed to respond to subtle movements either imparted by the angler or as a response to changes in current. The tail is also designed to fold as a fish inhales the lure, resulting in a clean, strong hook up. Maces are available in a range of colours, 7.5cm long, 8 lures per pack.

A killer dropshot/lrf fishing lure with a twin tail for maximum attraction. Each Knight Worm is impregnated with a shrimp scent to enhance the curiosity of any species.

The Excalibur is a lure HTO were very keen to get out there. Its design is very influenced by more traditional “Ajing” lures from Japan. Its long slender profile lends itself to “on the drop” style fishing as well as Caro rigs, and the lure will respond to the slightest fluctuations in current giving it a lifelike appearance and entice the wariest of predators. Ideally suited to a #6-#4 hook. Excaliber's are available in a range of colours, 7cm long, 8 per pack.

These craccking little versatile worm baits are great for everything from conventional soft plastic tactics to modern LRF and Dropshotting techniques. The body material provides tons of movement in the water, while remaining durable enough to handle big strikes form predators. Available in a range of colours, 6.5cm long, 8 lures per pack.

A rod with lofty ambitions, it takes its name from the N70 Nebula, a luminous bubble of interstellar gas, a birthplace of powerful new stars. These massive formations of gas profoundly affect their environment, leaving their mark on the future for generations to come. A rod named after such an immense and powerful entity needs to be special, and it is. This is the very best bass blank HTO have ever built, we believe it to be one of the best bass rods ever made for the UK and European bass angler. The price of this rod was the very last thing we had in our minds when we set out on the N70 journey. We wanted to create the very best bass lure rod we could, with zero compromise. The blank itself is built from 40ton Carbon from renowned Japanese manufacturer, Mitsubishi. This carbon base is coated in M4 resin which adds incredible strength while retaining the highest elasticity and sensitivity, creating a blank wall that is 100 times higher in tensile strength compared to steel of the same thickness. Finally a layer of 45 degree helical carbon tape is wrapped around the blank giving it an extra layer of protection and a unique spiral look that doesn’t compromise the blanks performance. This building process makes the rod featherlight, crisp and with an extra fast action that will punch lures to distance with pinpoint accuracy while maintaining the very best action for working lures to their highest levels of efficiency and attraction. Fitted to the blank are Fuji Titanium Framed Torzite 2 K spinning guides. We chose these guides as they are super light to fit in with the featherweight blank, they are also highly efficient. Their design dramatically reduces line twist and gives the line a much more direct motion of travel through the guides for more efficient and accurate casting. They are suitable for both braid, fluorocarbon and monofilament. A Fuji VSS reel seat completes the rod, with a Winn grip handle that is soft to the touch, provides excellent grip and is light.

The main compartment is large enough to hold lure boxes, and a mesh pocket at the rear of the compartment is good for storing packets of small, soft lures. The front pocket features a further mesh pocket for lure packs and another compartment for lure boxes, accessory boxes, tools and other bits of kit. To the front is a small zipped pocket for securing smaller items and another open pocket to the front. The main central flap that covers all of these compartments is secured with a buckle.

A cleverly designed jig for squid fishing that is a highly effective lure that will catch squid when all else fails. The secret to this incredible, consistent catch rate is the use of a hot coat, this outer layer around the jig keeps it at up to 1c warmer than the surrounding water. Squid and cuttlefish use heat as one of their main hunting instincts to differentiate prey and home in on them, the hot coat mimics this, leading to increased catches. The jig is well balanced providing just the right amount of action to induce a squid or cuttlefish to attack. It has a fish skin texture and deep red eyes and brown wings. The weight under the chin of the lure is chrome, to further enhance the visual attraction of the lure. A luminous band at the base of the jig adds luminosity just above the two rows of stainless steel points, acting as a target point for the squid.
