A superb value for money alarm, the Prologic C-Series also boasts some great features. There are six volume, tone and sensitivity settings, meaning you can have the alarm just as you want it.

When you do get that savage bite, both LEDs illuminate, with one blinking for 20 seconds after. It also features a night light and a 2.5mm out socket for matching coloured illuminated hangers or swingers, meaning you can really show off your kit in the hours of darkness.

The Daiwa Emcast Carp Rods are as good to look at as they are to use. The slim blank, carbon weave detailing and subtle red whipping make for a stunning bit of tackle.

A full Fuji reel seat, Seaguide rings and 50mm butt ring coupled with an abbreviated handle, gives the rods a very premium feel and you would be forgiven for thinking they are double the price of what they retail at, especially with the current discount.

The rods are ideal for medium range carp fishing, anything up to 100 yards and these rods are perfect. They will of course cast further than that in the right hands, but on small to medium sized waters is where they really excel. The slim powerful blanks are great for playing fish on, bending all the way through, they will reduce hookpulls whilst retaining enough strength to pull big fish away from snags and weedbeds.

As the weather begins to deteriorate, the Nash ZT Waterproof Set will keep you dry and comfortable even when fishing in the most adverse weather conditions.

A 10,000mm waterproof rating ensures you will stay dry at all times, and as the material is also very breathable, you won't start to sweat and become cold or uncomfortable. All the seams are fully taped to further increase the durability of the garments, whilst zipped internal and external pockets provide a safe haven for valuables like mobile phones and car keys.

The storm collar and adjustable hood allow you to tailor the coat to the conditions, so you can really lock yourself away when the weather gets rough. Both items are really lightweight and easy to get on, so they can be worn all session or thrown into your bag and put on at a moments notice.

A seriously good pair of waterproofs and a must have this winter to keep you enthusiastic and fishing at your best!

If you want ultimate stability on the bank, then the Matrix S25 Super Box is definitely worth a look. Built on a strong frame, the whole box is built to last. The frame is made from a lightweight, reinforced aluminium to reduce the weight but retain strength, and it manages that as the entire box system weighs 15kg in total. The box is available in a Black or Matrix Lime Green to give you a choice when purchasing.

Legs are 25mm in diameter and compatible with all Matrix attachments as well as those from other companies using the inserts that can be bought separately. The front 4 legs are telescopic to enable you to get the seatbox level and solid on any terrain, with the chunky leg screws a great addition, especially useful in wet or cold conditions. Large swivelling mud feet are present on the base of the legs to prevent the box sinking into soft ground and the sliding footplate is made from an anti-warp material and is very strong, when stood on, it is going nowhere.

The padded seat is incredibly comfortable and won't sag overtime, which is important for supporting your back and it comes with a built in spirit level, so you can get the box in the best possible position. The box is also supplied with a sliding deep drawer unit and extra unit underneath for rigs and small items.

The JRC Stealth EZ-Winder Bivvy is an ideal choice for any angler who really hates messing around to put up their bivvy or those who are simply short on time. A clever winding mechanism allows the bivvy to be erected easily and quickly in seconds, saving you time so you can concentrate on getting the rods out. 

Made from a durable 10,000 HH waterproof Hydratex fabric, the bivvy is more than capable of keeping you comfortable and dry during the worst of the British weather and a clever rain gutter helps divert rain away from the bivvy door. The pole system utilises a spider design, with all the poles on the external side, meaning you benefit from the maximum amount of space whilst inside the bivvy.

The shelter comes supplied with pegs and a strong PVC groundsheet and includes a fully removable, 2-way door system, with a clear, green or mozzy mesh infill depending on your preferences.

The Drennan Red Range Carp Waggler 12ft Rod is a fantastic option for anyone who regularly goes to commercial fisheries or occasionally heads to the river to run a stick float through.

The rod is well balanced and has loads of power in the blank to deal with really large, powerful fish. The rod isn't like a poker though and you'll be able to enjoy catching any size fish on it. Despite its power, the blank is light and well balanced, so it can be held all day if you need to.

The cork handle gives a premium feel to what is essentially Drennan's budget range but don't let that put you off, the rod excels in most float fishing scenarios and is well worth buying if you enjoy catching big fish on the float.

For ultimate comfort on the bank, you would be hard pushed to find a better chair than the Nash Tackle Micro Moon Chair to relax in once the rods are out in the lake.

This is a slightly smaller version of the incredibly popular Moon Chair, aimed at anglers with less time on the bank or those who simply don't feel the need to carry a large chair around but still want some comfort when they are fishing. It is still lined with the same microfleece camo material which looks at home on any lake and is really soft and lovely to sit in.

If you're looking for a new chair, especially one to pull up to the Christmas table, this is well worth a look!

The Preston Supera SL Feeder Rod is about as good a rod as you could want as we come into the colder months. A soft, seamless through-action prevents hookpulls that can lose you a match, yet the rods double up as the perfect winter commercial fishery tools for F1s and carp on maggot feeder and straight lead tactics.

Classy Sea Guide rings are perfectly placed along its two-sectioned high modulus carbon body, while a reduced length cork and EVA handle make it manageable to cast and set up. It comes with three graded quivers of 0.5oz, 0.75oz and 1oz.

The Sonik Insurgent reel is perfect for the modern day 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!

The latest bedchair offering from Advanta is their six-leg version of the popular Protector bedchair, the Advanta Discovery Straight Six Bed, which offers great comfort and features for those anglers who don’t want to spend a fortune.

The frame is constructed from lightweight aluminium and steel, accommodating up to 140kg of weight, which will be suitable for most anglers or an angler and their child. The dual fold hinges allow the bedchair to fold flat even with a sleeping bag attached. The mattress is generously padded and comfortable with a customisable lumbar support system to allow you to get the bed as firm as you want it to be. 

The flat, six-leg design keeps the bedchair very stable and will stop it tipping up or sagging. The grip hold lock system on the legs also prevents them collapsing if they move, keeping the structure solid. All the individual legs have rotating, Level-find mudfeet and can all be extended via a Push-n-Lock mechanism to aid a comfortable sleep even on the most adverse bankside conditions.

The Shakespeare Superteam SFX Plus Feeder Rod range has everything from an 11ft 50g version up to a 13ft 180g model, and are primarily designed as distance casting rods. The heavier versions also make great barbel rods when fishing on the larger rivers with bigger feeders.

The rods have a quick recovery, oversized guides and a progressive action to really help power through the cast and propel those feeders out as far as you need to. The flat handle is lovely for keeping the rod pinned to your arm when playing fish but it also aids grip when you are looking for those extra yards.

A premium carbon weave detailing on the blank really sets the rod off nicely and with tip options from 1-6oz you can fish for anything and the rod will show the bites perfectly.

The original, fast-erecting bivvy with some new and exciting features. The Trakker Tempest 100 EV still holds the title for the quickest shelter to set up on the market.

The development of Trakker's Aquatexx EV 25,000mm fabric has upgraded the durability of the shelter and made it even more waterproof with its hydrophobic Teflon coating, meaning it literally repels water and oils. The material is also breathable, so water vapour can leave the bivvy to prevent condensation forming on the inside.

Alongside this, Trakker have included their 360 adaptive ventilation technology, which allows the flaps to be extended out via tension straps so air can still penetrate the bivvy, but rain can't get in. It's perfect on those muggy, wet sessions. The block is now stronger too, leading to a much sturdier, freestanding structure when locked into place.

If you enjoy carp fishing on a range of venues but don't want to spend a fortune, the Trakker Trinity Cork Rod could well be the rod for you. Despite its ridiculously low price tag, this rod performs superbly well and its 3.5lb test curve is about perfect for an all-round, take anywhere rod.

The rod has the power to cast leads over 100 yards with ease, yet remains responsive enough to still enjoy the fight when you hook a carp. The full cork handle and matt black finish leave the rod feeling it should cost a lot more and it will look great on even the most discerning anglers alarms.

An improved version of the best-selling fishing chair of all time, the Korum S23 Accessory Chair has a patented vertical system utilising square 23mm legs. A breathable seat offers superb comfort while remaining lightweight and durable. The quick fold design ensures it is quick and easy to transport and store.

The adjustable legs allow for greater stability. Compatible with all Korum side trays, feeder arms and wheel kits.

Renowned for their comfort and reliability, the Hunter Unisex Balmoral Adjustable Wellies make fantastic fishing wellies whether you like to walk along the river or sit on a seatbox all day.

The polyester lining and thick rubber construction make for a durable and comfortable welly that will stand upto some punishment. The slightly taller shape makes them great if you have to do some shallow wading too.

If you do a lot of short session angling and aren't a massive fan of a bivvy, the Advanta Discovery CCX DPM Low Rider Fishing Brolly is a great option to keep you sheltered from the elements.

A 10,000HH waterproof material, finished in a DPM camo means the Low Rider Brolly will keep you dry, it also has a full length rain gutter to channel the rain away from the doorway. There are two storm poles supplied with the shelter for stability in poor conditions as well as a groundsheet to keep the inside dry and comfortable.

The shelter itself weighs a mere 5.5kg, so it's easy enough to carry if you don't have a lot of gear and you won't notice it when it's put on a barrow. Working on a brolly system, the shelter can be unpacked, put up and pegged down in less than 2 minutes, which makes it perfect for quick sessions or the mobile angler.

If you're looking for a stylish fishing jacket, the Aqua Reversible DPM Fishing Jacket is definitely up there with some of the best we have seen. Made with a water resistant Teflon EcoElite material, it will not tear or rip easily and it will keep you comfortable on the bank.

The jacket also benefits from a 3M Thinsulate insulation to make sure even in the depths of winter it will help keep you warm. The jacket is also reversible so you can choose between a camo or black finish depending on your preferences on any given day. The fit is great and the lightweight nature makes it easy to wear so you won't feel restricted when fishing in it.
