CATCH OF THE DAY
ON SALE

Utilising new and ultra-high-grade nano alloy carbons, Daiwa's Air Z Pro pole has built a strong reputation as one of the best there is. A flagship product that provides the ultimate in performance.
One of the most expensive poles on the market but also one of the best performers. The Daiwa Air Z Pro pole is incredibly light, even at 16m. With a match top two kit, this is the best pole in the world. Even with the heavier top kits, it's ridiculously rigid, incredibly responsive and super stiff.
The section wall strength of this pole is good, which means it can land some pretty big carp, certainly up to 20lb. If accidents do happen, Daiwa spares are readily available in the UK, so you won't be left with a situation where you can't go fishing.
At this amount of money, resale value is also a key consideration, and Daiwa poles tend to hold their value far better than others on the market.
IF YOU WANT ONE OF THE BEST POLES ON THE MARKET, THE AIR Z PRO IS AMAZING, WHILE YOU CAN SAVE 30% AT ANGLING DIRECT, TOTAL FISHING TACKLE HAVE AN EVEN BETTER 35% SAVING!!!!
RIGHT now they have a further 15% off making it the cheapest price it has ever been!
Pros
- Light, stiff and responsive.
- Spares are readily available in the UK.
Cons
- More expensive than other flagship poles.

The Daiwa Ninja Match and Feeder LT is the newest of the Ninja range but still boasts all the features and quality anglers have come to expect, with a few new additions to make them a slightly more versatile match reel.
The reel features slightly revised sizes of 3012 (in single and double handle) 4012 and 6000 (in single handle only) options, with a 2508 reel added to the range to balance the new wave of shorter 7ft and 8ft rods that have hit the market recently.
The graphite body and Air Rotor have helped keep the weight to a minimum, even in the larger sizes, as to not unbalance even delicate float rods. The oversized rotor system on the reel significantly reduces any wobble whilst winding in, something that can often occur with slightly cheaper reels.
The same great winding power has been enhanced slightly, by Daiwa opting to include a geared down retrieve, and the ever reliable smoothness is achieved via 4BB and Infinite Anti-Reverse.
Pssst. While this is one of our favourite reels on the market, Total Fishing Tackle have it cheaper, with a whopping 23% off...

Pros
- Great all-round reel.
- Perfect for any water and method.
Cons
- A touch small for really big fish.

The Sonik Insurgent reel is perfect for a new carp angler, available in a 5000 and 6000 body size, the reel is designed to cope with the rigours of modern day angling.
The Insurgent incorporates Worm-Shaft gearing to ensure the reel provides a smooth and effortless winding action, enabling you to easily retrieve rigs and big fish from range. The Quick Torque front drag system allows you to adjust the drag with minimal turning of the knob, allowing for better control over hooked fish, whilst the spring loaded line clips aids your accuracy.
The reels are finished in a lovely matt black with a wooden handle for that extra touch of class, they won't look out of place on any setup!
Angling Direct don't have this reel in stock unfortunately but Total Fishing Tackle do and it has an amazing price saving you 60%...
Pros
- Smooth and effortless winding.
- Quick Torque Drag.
Cons
- A longer spool would be nice for extreme distance casting.

The Daiwa Emblem Spod reel needs little introduction amongst angling enthusiasts, it is regarded as one of the best and most capable reels for spodding out there. The Emblem is a real workhorse, with many anglers abusing them for years with little maintenance and the reel still performs as good as new.
The Emblem benefits from a high retrieval rate, 100cm per turn ensures the Spomb is retrieved with minimal reeling and the oversize ABS spool allows line to peel off the reel, perfect for those long distance casters out there. The spool also includes two line clips for precise baiting on multiple spots.
The Worm Gear oscillation and 4 ball bearings provide the reel with fantastic cranking power, whilst also increasing the longevity of the reel itself. The compact body means you’re never reaching for the line with your finger, reducing the chance of the line slipping on the cast, so you can get the maximum force behind the spod to send it out into the lake.
WHILE ANGLING DIRECT'S PRICES ARE GREAT AT £149.99, GO OUTDOORS HAS A FURTHER REDUCTION ON THEIR EMBLEM SPOD REEL SAVING YOU A FURTHER £20...
Pros
- Fantastic cranking power.
- Very durable construction.
Cons
- The silver finished areas on the reel are prone to scratching.

If you’re a specialist angler, the Korum Omega Rods are definitely worth considering, especially at these Black Friday prices! Available in lengths ranging from 11ft to 13ft and with test curves from 1.25lb to 2.5lb, there’s a rod to suit a variety of angling needs. The range even includes a float rod, perfect for targeting species like chub and crucians.
For chasing big barbel on rivers like the Trent or those needing a lighter carp setup, the 2.5lb rods provide plenty of power to handle the demands of these styles of angling. Meanwhile, the 1.25lb and 1.5lb models are excellent for specimen fishing, whether you’re targeting roach, tench, or bream on still waters, also doubling as superb floater rods during the summer months.
Each rod features a cork handle that’s not only comfortable to hold but also looks fantastic on a buzz bar, appealing to even the fussiest anglers. The sleek carbon finish adds a premium touch and offers incredible durability, resisting scratches and wear to ensure these rods remain reliable companions on the bank for many seasons to come!

Best Hybrid Bivvy
www.total-fishing-tackle.com
Regarded as one of the strongest shelters on the market, the Nash Titan Hide Camo Pro is a great product for those looking for a fast erect, brolly/bivvy hybrid. With a whole host of extras that can be added, the Titan Hide Pro is as suited to overnight angling as it is to those fishing longer sessions. The flat back design allows a bedchair to be positioned against the rear of the shelter, ensuring the maximum space-to-footprint ratio is utilised.
The Hide uses a locking system, which gives the shelter its rigidity, eliminating the need for storm poles whilst also allowing the shelter to be freestanding. In swims that are difficult to get, pegs in this shelter will be invaluable. The anti-twist poles simply fit together, and the ribs are then fanned out and locked into place. We would say there aren't many faster bivvies to set up on the market.
An interesting and unique feature is the mesh capsule that simply clips to the Titan internally whilst being fused to a groundsheet, it eliminates insects and rodents from entering the bivvy. The 20,000mm fabric externally will keep you dry in any conditions.
Mesh organiser pockets are a welcome addition for storing items such as phones or receivers, this keeps everything neat, organised and to hand when needed, which can only promote more efficient angling.
WE LOVE THIS BIVVY FROM NASH AND WHILE IT IS A GREAT PRICE ON ANGLING DIRECT AT £359.99, TOTAL FISHING TACKLE ARE OFFERING IT WITH A FREE WATERPROOF INFILL PANEL FOR £324.99!!!
Pros
- Strong, easy to erect.
- Very versatile bivvy.
Cons
- More suited to anglers that don't take loads of tackle due to its smaller footprint.
