Colmic Square Magic Net 10x10cm is a purpose-built mesh bag designed for keeping live bait fresh and in prime condition. Whether you are fishing with maggots, casters, worms or other live baits, this compact bag provides a simple and effective way to store and transport your bait while you are on the bank.

The bag is constructed entirely from mesh fabric, which allows air to circulate freely around the contents. On warm days this ventilation is particularly valuable, as it helps to prevent the bait from overheating and sweating, keeping it lively and usable for longer sessions. The open mesh structure also allows you to rinse your bait directly through the bag.

One of the key practical features is the tall side walls. These are designed to stop bait from climbing or spilling out of the bag, which is especially useful when you are moving between swims or when the bag is placed on uneven ground. The deep sides give you confidence that your bait stays contained, even when the bag is handled roughly.

The bag can be partially submerged in water to rinse and refresh the bait. This is a useful function when you want to clean maggots or remove sawdust and debris before fishing. Simply dip the bag into the margins, allow water to pass through the mesh, and lift it out again. The mesh drains quickly, so the bait is not left sitting in excess water.

At just 10 x 10 cm, the Colmic Square Magic Net is extremely compact. It takes up very little space in a carryall, bucket or rucksack, making it an ideal choice for anglers who travel light or who want a dedicated bait bag that can be kept close at hand. The square shape helps the bag hold its form, making it easy to fill and empty.

This bait bag is suitable for a wide range of freshwater fishing situations where live bait is used, including float fishing, feeder fishing and pole fishing. It is equally useful for match anglers who need to keep small quantities of bait fresh during a session, and for pleasure anglers who want a tidy, ventilated storage solution.

Colmic Micro-Magic Net is a specialised mesh bait bag designed for keeping live baits in top condition. Its fine mesh walls allow air to circulate freely around the bait, which is particularly valuable on warm days when live baits such as maggots, casters and worms can quickly spoil in a sealed container. By letting the bait breathe, the bag helps to maintain freshness for longer and keeps your bait lively and effective throughout the session.

The high side walls are an important practical detail. They prevent bait from climbing or spilling out of the bag, so you can carry it, hang it or set it down without losing your bait. This is especially useful when you are moving between swims or when the bag is placed on uneven ground.

The mesh construction also makes the bag easy to rinse. You can dip it slightly into the water to wash the bait and remove any debris or residue, which helps to keep the bait clean and in good condition. This simple routine is a practical way to extend the useful life of your bait during a session.

Despite its generous internal space, the Colmic Micro-Magic Net is extremely compact. With a diameter of 10 cm and a height of 7 cm, it takes up very little room in a tackle box, bucket or carryall, making it a convenient accessory for anglers who like to travel light or who need to keep their bait organised.

This bait bag is suitable for a wide range of live baits and is a practical addition to any coarse, match or pleasure angler's kit. Whether you are fishing a commercial fishery, a canal or a natural lake, keeping your bait fresh and contained is a simple way to improve your efficiency on the bank.

Colmic Magic Net Combo is a purpose-built mesh bait bag designed for keeping live bait fresh and in prime condition throughout a session. Whether you are fishing with maggots, casters, worms or other live baits, this bag provides a practical, ventilated storage solution that helps maintain bait quality from the moment you arrive at the bank.

The body of the bag is constructed from mesh fabric, which allows air to circulate freely around the contents. On warm days this ventilation is particularly valuable, as it helps reduce the build-up of heat and moisture that can quickly spoil live bait. The result is bait that stays in better condition for longer, so you can spend more time fishing and less time worrying about your bait going off.

The tall side walls are a thoughtful design detail. They help contain the bait securely inside the bag, reducing the risk of maggots, casters or worms escaping during transport or while you are setting up. This makes the bag especially useful when moving between swims or when the bag is placed on uneven ground.

Another practical advantage of the mesh construction is that the bag can be partially dipped into water to rinse the bait. This allows you to clean your bait quickly and easily without removing it from the bag, helping to remove debris and keep it fresh and attractive. It is a simple feature that makes a real difference during a long session.

With dimensions of 30 x 17 x 10 cm, the Colmic Magic Net Combo offers a compact yet capable storage space that is easy to carry as part of your tackle setup. It is well suited to anglers who fish with live bait and want a dedicated, ventilated container that keeps their bait organised and accessible.

Colmic Magic Net Combo is a purpose-built mesh bait bag designed for keeping live baits in top condition during a session. Whether you are fishing with maggots, casters, worms or other live baits, this bag provides a simple and effective way to store and protect your bait bankside.

The walls of the bag are made from a mesh fabric, which allows air to circulate freely around the contents. On warm days this ventilation helps to keep live baits cooler and reduces the build-up of heat and moisture, supporting a longer useful life and fresher presentation on the hook.

The tall side walls are an important practical detail. They help to contain active baits such as maggots and casters, reducing the risk of them climbing or spilling out of the bag while it is open or being moved. This makes the bag easier to manage on the bank, particularly when you are taking bait out regularly.

A further benefit of the mesh construction is that the bag can be partially dipped into the water to rinse the baits. This allows you to clean off debris and refresh the bait without transferring it to a separate container, which is useful when you want to keep your bait station tidy and your baits in good condition.

With compact dimensions of 20 x 20 x 10 cm, the Colmic Magic Net Combo is easy to carry in a tackle bag or bucket and takes up little space on the bank. It is a practical accessory for anglers who fish with live baits and want a straightforward, ventilated storage solution.

KaLures Kraken Ball 3.2cm is a high-quality, highly effective soft lure made in Lithuania, designed for anglers who demand reliable performance from their silicone baits. With a compact 32 mm profile, this lure is ideal for a wide range of predator fishing situations where a small, enticing presentation is required.

The Kraken Ball is manufactured from a soft, elastic and buoyant silicone that gives the lure a lively, natural action in the water. The buoyant nature of the material helps the bait maintain an attractive posture, while its elasticity ensures it stays securely on the hook and withstands repeated casts and strikes.

Each lure is impregnated with a powerful scent combining squid and shrimp attractant. This scent trail disperses in the water and encourages fish to hold on longer after taking the bait, which can improve hook-up rates, particularly when fish are cautious or pressured.

The colour range has been developed in consultation with professional Lithuanian anglers and tested across local waters. Many of the colours are colour-shifting or UV-reactive, meaning they change shade or become more visible when they enter the water and are exposed to sunlight. This makes them effective in varying light and water clarity conditions.

Supplied in packs of 10 pieces, the Kraken Ball is a practical choice for anglers who want a dependable, scented soft lure for perch, zander, pike and other predatory species. Whether fished on a jig head, drop-shot rig or Carolina rig, this lure offers a versatile and fish-attracting presentation.

Shimano Aero X5 Distance Feeder is a dedicated distance feeder rod engineered for anglers who need to reach far banks, fish stillwaters and cope with flowing water. Built around an exceptionally slim yet remarkably strong HPC60 + NANO carbon blank, it delivers the backbone required for long-range casting while remaining light enough to hold for extended sessions.

The rod is supplied with three carbon quiver tips rated at 1.5oz, 2.0oz and 3.0oz, allowing you to fine-tune bite indication to the conditions. Lighter tips register delicate bites in calm water, while the heavier tip is better suited to windy days, flowing water or when using heavier feeders.

The blank handles medium-weight feeders with ease and is not afraid of being pushed hard. It casts accurately and confidently, making it a reliable tool for putting a baited feeder exactly where you want it, cast after cast.

Special-shaped Seaguide guides are fitted to prevent the line from wrapping around the first guide during the cast, a common frustration when fishing at distance. This small but important detail helps keep every cast clean and tangle-free.

The Shimano PDS reel seat locks your reel securely in place and adds to the overall pleasure of fishing with this rod. The handle combines half cork and half EVA materials, giving a comfortable, durable grip that performs well in both dry and wet conditions.

Whether you are targeting stillwater carp, bream or tench at range, or holding bottom in a steady current, the Aero X5 Distance Feeder is built to deliver the distance, control and bite indication that serious feeder anglers demand.

Shimano Aero BB 4000-5000 is a new-generation reel designed for float anglers and feeder fishing enthusiasts who demand reliable performance and smooth operation. The distinctive reel design pairs perfectly with most Shimano rods, and especially with rods from the Aero series, creating a balanced and visually coordinated setup.

The range of available reel sizes makes the Aero BB suitable for a wide variety of fishing situations. The smaller sizes are ideal for float fishing or for feeder fishing at close range with small feeders, where a compact and lightweight reel is an advantage. The larger sizes allow long casts and comfortable fishing even with heavy feeders, giving you the confidence to fish at distance when conditions demand it.

The Anti-Reverse system helps you stay in control when playing larger fish, preventing the rotor from turning backwards and allowing you to apply steady pressure during the fight. This is a valuable feature when targeting bigger specimens on both float and feeder tactics.

The reel is fitted with an easily locked metal line clip, which helps you cast your feeder accurately to the exact spot you want to fish. This is particularly useful when baiting a swim precisely or when fishing to a feature such as a gravel bar or marginal shelf.

Inside the XT-7 G-Free body, Shimano has installed advanced Cold Forged Hagane gearing and the X-Ship system. These technologies work together to deliver smooth winding performance and efficient power transfer, which is especially noticeable when retrieving under load or when playing a hard-fighting fish.

Every model in this reel range comes with a plastic backing, which helps reduce the spool capacity so that even the finest braided lines can be laid evenly and consistently. This is a practical detail for anglers who prefer braid for feeder work or who want to minimise line slip on the spool.

With its combination of modern Shimano technology, accurate line control and a choice of sizes, the Aero BB is a versatile choice for float and feeder anglers looking for dependable performance across a range of venues and conditions.

Shimano Technium Invisitec is a premium monofilament fishing line engineered to be virtually invisible in the water, giving you a genuine edge when targeting pressured or wary fish. Its translucent finish helps the line blend into a wide range of underwater environments, so cautious species are far less likely to be spooked by your rig.

The line is built around a three-layer construction, a design that combines a strong core with protective outer layers. This structure delivers the balance of strength and manageability that demanding anglers look for, allowing the line to perform reliably cast after cast.

One of the standout characteristics of Technium Invisitec is its low stretch. Reduced stretch means that when a fish takes the bait, the movement is transmitted more directly back to the rod, so even subtle bites and gentle plucks are easier to feel. This improved feedback helps you react faster and set the hook more effectively, particularly when fishing at range or in deeper water where bite detection can otherwise be difficult.

The line is also extremely strong for its diameter, giving you confidence when playing hard-fighting fish or fishing around snags and structure. The combination of low stretch and high strength makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of coarse, carp and predator fishing situations.

Technium Invisitec is supplied on a generous 300 m spool, providing plenty of line for filling a reel, topping up after a break-off or tying fresh rigs throughout the season. It is available in several diameters to suit different tactics and target species:

• 0.205 mm – 4.2 kg
• 0.225 mm – 5.3 kg
• 0.255 mm – 6.7 kg
• 0.305 mm – 9 kg

Whether you are fishing a method feeder, a running lead rig or a simple float setup, the near-invisible presentation and direct bite transmission of Technium Invisitec can help you convert more chances into hooked fish.

Shimano Kairiki x8 Mantis Green 300m is a Japanese-made, sinking, 8-strand braided fishing line designed for anglers who demand a dense, smooth and reliable braid for both bottom fishing and spinning.

The line is produced using the VT manufacturing method, which results in a very dense braid with a remarkably smooth surface. This construction helps the line absorb less water, allowing it to maintain its casting characteristics over long sessions. The smooth surface also means reduced friction through the rod guides and a quieter, more controlled cast.

As a sinking braided line, Kairiki x8 is well suited to bottom fishing presentations where contact with the lakebed or riverbed is important, as well as to spinning applications where a direct connection to the lure is beneficial. The light green Mantis colour provides good visibility without being overly conspicuous in the water.

Supplied on a 300 m spool, this line offers ample capacity for filling a reel or for use across multiple setups. It is available in a range of diameters to suit different fishing situations, from light finesse presentations to heavier bottom fishing and predator work.

Available diameters and breaking strains:

• 0.10 mm – 6.5 kg
• 0.13 mm – 8.2 kg
• 0.19 mm – 12 kg
• 0.20 mm – 17.1 kg
• 0.215 mm – 20.8 kg
• 0.28 mm – 29.3 kg
• 0.315 mm – 33.5 kg

Shimano Luggage All-Round Tackle Bag is a compact and practical tackle bag designed for anglers who want to carry a modest selection of fishing essentials in an organised and easily accessible way. Whether you are heading out for a short session on a local lake, a few hours on the river or a quick trip to the canal, this bag offers a neat solution for keeping your terminal tackle, tools and accessories together without the bulk of a large carryall.

The bag is built around a large zipped main compartment, which provides a secure and enclosed space for storing items such as hooklength boxes, small tackle boxes, spools of line, packets of hooks and other loose accessories. The zip closure helps to keep everything contained during transport and protects the contents from dust, light rain and accidental spills, making it a reliable choice for everyday angling use.

On each side of the bag there are two mesh pockets. These are ideal for items that you need to reach quickly or that benefit from being kept separate from the main compartment, such as a bottle of water, a small bait tub, forceps, scissors or a spool of line. The mesh construction allows you to see what is stored inside at a glance and provides ventilation, which can be useful for damp items or clothing.

For carrying comfort, the Shimano Luggage All-Round Tackle Bag is fitted with two grab handles as well as an adjustable, padded shoulder strap. The grab handles make it easy to lift the bag in and out of a car boot or to move it between swims, while the padded shoulder strap distributes the weight across your shoulder for more comfortable walking over longer distances. The strap can be adjusted to suit your preferred carrying position, whether you wear it across the body or over one shoulder.

With dimensions of 33 x 26 x 22 cm, this bag occupies a compact footprint that is easy to store and transport, yet still offers enough capacity for a focused selection of tackle. It is particularly well suited to anglers who prefer to travel light, match anglers, pleasure anglers and anyone who wants a secondary bag for storing spare rigs, bait accessories or personal items alongside a larger carryall.

The bag is part of the Shimano Luggage range, a collection known for combining practical design with durable materials and a clean, understated look. The All-Round Tackle Bag reflects this approach, offering a straightforward and functional storage solution that integrates easily with other items in the Shimano luggage line-up.

Shimano Bantam BT Spin is a versatile lure that can be used both horizontally and vertically. It can also be fished with a continuous line or with a lift, drop, stop method. It is equipped with a rotating leaf at the rear which vibrates aggressively during the retrieve. Thanks to the downward-swept head and perfectly shaped lower body, the wobbler stays still on the feeder, simulating a frightened fish. To make the lure even more attractive, a Scale Boost 3D holographic film is used to create a remarkably realistic scale pattern, which is particularly noticeable when the lure is stationary and attracting predators. The lure has an ultra-sharp treble hook.

Preston Absolute Hooklength Box Short is a double-sided hooklength box designed to keep ready-tied rigs and hooklengths organised, protected and ready for use. Part of the respected Preston Absolute range, it is aimed at anglers who prepare hooklengths in advance and want a tidy, reliable storage solution that travels easily in a seatbox or carryall.

The box is manufactured from very strong plastic, giving it the rigidity needed to protect stored hooklengths during transport. The double-sided layout means both sides of the box can be used for storage, effectively doubling the usable capacity within a compact footprint. This makes it a practical choice for anglers who like to carry a range of hooklength options without adding bulk to their tackle setup.

Inside, the box features retaining pegs with lengths marked in millimetres. These markings allow hooklengths of different lengths to be wound and stored neatly, so you can identify and select the right rig quickly. Whether you fish short hooklengths for method feeder work or longer hooklengths for other presentations, the marked positions help keep everything consistent and easy to manage.

The box is highly watertight and does not let water in. This is particularly useful in wet weather or when the box is stored alongside damp items in a carryall, as it helps keep hooklengths and hooks protected from moisture. The secure closure also helps prevent contents from spilling if the box is knocked or tipped during a session.

Magnetic retainers make the box easier to open and close, adding convenience when your hands are cold or wet. The magnetic closure provides a positive hold while still allowing quick access when you need to change a hooklength. This is a small but genuinely useful detail for anglers who value efficiency bankside.

With dimensions of 18 x 8 cm, the Short version is compact enough to fit into a seatbox drawer or tackle bag while still offering practical storage for a useful number of hooklengths. It is well suited to coarse and match angling where prepared hooklengths are part of an organised approach, and it also works well for pleasure anglers who like to keep rigs tidy.

Overall, the Preston Absolute Hooklength Box Short combines strong construction, clear length markings, a watertight body and magnetic closure in a compact double-sided format. It is a straightforward, well-thought-out storage accessory for anglers who want their hooklengths protected and ready to fish.

Shimano The Cardiff Flügel 70F is a deep-diving wobbler for trout fishing, which has a very long and precise cast thanks to its special shape and a special weight inside that shifts the centre of gravity during the cast. Thanks to the spring inside, as soon as the lure touches the water, the weight is pushed back to its original position for maximum efficiency. The design of the tongue has been adjusted to keep the lure perfectly balanced, even when pulling at high speed or in fast flowing water. The lure has two very sharp and strong treble hooks.

When the lure is stopped, the inner shad slides to the back of the lure, causing the lure to rise upside down. This size of wobbler is perfect for catching both smaller and larger trout.

In addition, the wobbler is equipped with the Jerk Assist Balancer System, which ensures high stability when the lure is pulled at high speed. The lure has three very sharp and strong treble hooks.

Shimano TheBantam World Pop Flash Boost is a surface wobbler that can be fished in two different ways. When the lure is retrieved using normal, small jerks, a "walk the dog" action can be achieved, or aggressive jerks and swipes cause an explosion that produces large splashes of water to attract fish. Flash Boost technology has been added to the flashing reflector to create a visual attraction, while the Scale Boost 3D holographic film creates a remarkably realistic scale pattern that is highly attractive to predators. It is the perfect bait to use for pike, salmon and chubs when fish are actively hunting on the surface. The lure has two very sharp and strong treble hooks.

Shimano TheBantam World Crank 73F is a floating wobbler featuring the latest Shimano technology, which gives it an extremely long and accurate cast. With Flash Boost and Scale Boost for visual appeal and Jet Boost for long cast efficiency and accuracy, this is the perfect lure to tackle large areas of water with a depth of nearly 4m. The large tongue and good balance create a smooth but aggressive swim when the lure is retrieved at a constant speed. When the bait is stopped, it slowly rises to the surface and gently sways. The Scale Boost 3D holographic film produces a remarkably realistic scale pattern, which is particularly noticeable to predators. The lure has two very sharp and strong treble hooks.

Shimano Exsence Silent Assassin Flash Boost 99SP is the most technologically advanced Shimano lure ever made for catching sea bass. The wobbler features a Jet Boost function that increases casting efficiency - perfect for when fish are feeding at a distance. "Flash Boost increases attractiveness by reflecting light, even when stationary, while Scale Boost's realistic scale pattern is extremely eye-catching and very tempting for bass. Silent Assassin has a strong reel action when using a conventional steady line, but aggressive action can be increased with sharp jerks or a sliding action with long rod tip pulls.

Shimano Technium Tribal is a three-layer monofilament line that has earned a strong reputation among carp anglers, sharing the high regard in which the Shimano Technium Tournament Carp line is held. Its triple-layer construction is designed to deliver dependable performance across a wide range of coarse and carp fishing situations.

The line is finished in a dark brown camouflage colour, which helps it blend in against the lake bed and submerged features, making it less visible to wary fish. This subdued presentation is particularly useful when fishing clear or heavily pressured waters where fish may be cautious of visible line.

One of the standout characteristics of the Technium Tribal is its lack of memory. This means the line resists retaining coils from the spool, so it lies straighter and behaves more predictably after casting. Less memory also helps reduce tangles and improves overall handling, especially during long sessions.

The line also offers good shock-absorbing properties. This cushioning effect helps soften the surges and lunges of a hooked fish, making the playing and landing of hard-fighting carp and other coarse species smoother and more controlled.

The Shimano Technium Tribal is available in two diameters to suit different fishing requirements:

• 0.285 mm – 7.5 kg breaking strain – 1250 m spool
• 0.305 mm – 8.5 kg breaking strain – 1100 m spool

Both options come on generous bulk spools, making them a practical choice for anglers who fish regularly and want a reliable line without frequent respooling. The combination of low memory, camouflage colouring and shock absorption makes this line well suited to carp, tench, bream and other coarse fishing applications where presentation and reliability matter.
