ESP Cryogen Grip Rigger Barbless
ESPCRYOGRBB
ESP Cryogen Grip Rigger Barbless Hooks, As the name suggests, this is an amalgam of the best features of the Cryogen Gripper and Stiff Rigger, which is almost unfair on the carp! The shape is that of the Stiff Rigger, with the fine curved 'sticky' point of the Gripper. We have been getting asked for a while for a chod / stiff rigger hook with an ultra-sharp beaked point and have answered those pleas with a hook that has even converted a few straight point devotees through the testing process! Although hook choice is often down to personal preference rather than exact science, a beaked point can provide extra assurance especially in weedy or snaggy conditions, with unbeatable hook holds - and so they have proved through the testing process. Made in the same wire gauges as the Cryogen Stiff Riggers, making them the perfect pop up hook, the Grip Riggers feature heavy forging and of course the Cryogen treatment making them incredibly strong with durable points.

Sonubaits Bait Boosters
SONUBAITB
Sonubaits Bait Booster liquids are incredibly sweet tasting and have been developed alongside our illustrious team of anglers including Des Shipp and Lee Kerry to give your bait an added boost of flavour when looking to gain that all-important edge when out on the bank. They are also fantastic when looking to fine-tune your pellets or groundbait for moulding around a Method Feeder. Supplied in a generous 800ml bottle, add your required amount of Bait Booster directly to feed pellets, groundbait, hookbaits or your feeder to give an instant hit of powerful flavour. Due to the Bait Boosters viscous properties they can also be used to help add a degree of stickiness to your micro’s when looking to load them around a method feeder, whether that be at the start of the session or added throughout the day should your pellets begin to dry out.
From £9.99
STICKY BAITS SIGNATURE BAIT SPRAY
SBS
The Bait Spray range has been designed as an alternative attractor to supplement the liquids already in each range. Although we still swear by our Liquid Food and Glug ranges, they aren’t ideal for soaking hookbaits for prolonged periods of time as their heavyweight can dramatically affect the buoyancy of a pop-up or wafter and render your rig mechanics useless.
£4.99
DYNAMITE BAITS OVOLUTION HEMP OIL
DY1232
A seed oil based liquid attractant in Hemp flavour which is great for boosting your hookbaits, PVA stick mixes/bags, groundbait and spod/spomb mixes. The product comes in a 300ml bottle with removable narrow squirty cap for injecting the oil into PVA bags.
£6.25
ESP Cryogen Stiff Rigger Barbless
ESPCRYOSRB
This legendary hook pattern has been further refined and improved to make it the go-to hook for hinged stiff rig and chod rig presentations. Compared with its predecessor the Mk-2, the super sharp point is longer and finer and more inclined towards the shank for a stronger shape. The point is also in-line with the 13 degrees out-turned eye so all the force is straight along the point section of the hook, rather than across the gape making them incredibly strong.
From £4.25
ESP Zig & Floater Mono 100m
ESPZIGMONO
ESP Zig & Floater Mono, This clear, semi-buoyant mono is ideal as a hook link for zig rig and floater fishing applications. Featuring a fine diameter to knot strength ratio, it is tough and durable and has just the right amount of stretch to make it perfect for combining with smaller hooks. ESP Zig & Floater mono knots well and although the breaking strain is not underrated, optimum knot strength can be achieved with a carefully tied five turn grinner or palomar. Available on 100m spools and in the following sizes: 8lb (3.63kg) 0.23mm 10lb (4.54kg) 0.26mm 12lb (5.45kg) 0.28mm

Sticky Baits Pure Calanus Hydro 500ml
PC
Sticky Baits Pure Calanus Hydro 500ml
Pure Calanus Liquid Hydrolysate is one of the most exciting steps forward in marine-derived protein sources in many years.
It is 100% sustainable yet contains an almost unparalleled amino acid profile. Pure Calanus benefits from high levels of some of the most essential and attractive amino acids for all fish species. These provide water-soluble attraction and nutrition that is highly stimulating to carp.
This wonderfully salty, super-soluble liquid is incredibly low in fat and high in water-soluble protein. It pumps out attraction at a rapid rate, transmitting food signals far and wide. Its uses are only limited by your imagination; its relatively thin viscosity means it will penetrate boilies and pellets with ease before releasing a tantalising wave of attraction once applied to your chosen spot.
£12.99
Bait Tech Hemp Oil (500ml)
HOIL
Natural, organic, unrefined and packed with nutrients Hemp oil with its high levels of Omega 6 is THE most attractive and enriching oil available.

ESP Cryogen Gripper Barbless
ESPCRYOGB
This pattern is the culmination of striving to design the perfect all round beaked point carp hook.
The Gripper was subject to various design tweaks through the development process and the end result was well worth waiting for! The super fine, long curved point is the perfect shape and during testing, provided exceptionally secure hook holds. Other features include a 10-degree in-turned eye (slightly less than the Classic to allow for the inclined beaked point), heavy forging and of course, the slick PTFE Tufflon coating. New manufacturing techniques including both high temperature and cryogenic tempering have produced significantly stronger hooks with more durable, long life points.
Cryogenic tempering is a process used to improve the molecular structure of steel which in turn reduces stress and improves strength and wear resistance. It is used in many disciplines with Formula 1 engine parts being a classic example. Bench tests on initial samples proved to us that the new tempering processes combined with improved designs and heavy forging resulted in hooks that were 25-30% stronger than other Tufflon coated carp hooks in the same wire gauge. So rather than having to improve strength by simply increasing wire gauge, new manufacturing processes have allowed ESP to maintain optimum wire gauges for each size which allow for fine, ultra-sharp needle points which are now more durable than ever.

ESP Soft Ghost Fluorocarbon 20m
ESPSOFTGHOST
ESP Soft Ghost, Now even softer with more stretch, ESP Soft Ghost is an excellent hooklink or leader material particularly for wary carp in clear water. Being a pure fluorocarbon with the same light refractive index as water it is virtually invisible. A specific gravity of 1.78 makes it denser than water so rigs sink quickly and lie tight to the bottom. For maximum knot strength at the swivel end we recommend a 5 turn grinner or palomar and to attach the hook, a knotless knot or domhoff whipping knot.

Sticky Baits Mulbz Bait Spray
MBBS
Sticky Baits Mulbz Bait Spray
The Bait Spray range has been designed as an alternative attractor to supplement the liquids already in each range. Although we swear by our Liquid Food and Glug ranges, they arent ideal for soaking hookbaits for prolonged periods of time, as their dense nature can dramatically affect the buoyancy of a pop-up or wafter and render your rig mechanics useless. Bait Sprays are a much lighter alternative, that easily absorb into your chosen hookbait, yet still pack the same punch as their thicker counterparts simply grab a tub of hookbaits and give them a couple of sprays to seriously boost their attraction!

CC Moore Liquid Krill Compound - 500ml

Whole Krill Compound is a highly attractive, highly nutritious liquid food made from Fresh Whole Krill, which are clearly visible as they populate the various layers of your swim; this stimulates an intense natural feeding response that other baits are simply unable to achieve.
