ESP Super Floss 50m Pop-ups which have been pierced and threaded onto a hair rig are more likely to absorb water and lose buoyancy. Super Floss has a wide, flat profile which grips the pop-up securely without cutting in, even when the bait has swollen slightly. The pop-up can then be tied to a rig ring with 3 or 4 overturn knots. Rather than using super glue leave about 1cm tails at the end of the floss, then using a lighter burn back the ends to form small hard blobs, giving total security.Features: 50m Wide flat profile Grips pop-up securely

ESP Shock Beads The 5mm Rubber Shock Beads are designed to fit perfectly over the top of 0.5mm silicone tubing when used on leadcore for helicopter and chod rigs. In the event of a break, the top bead will push off the silicone tube and with its enlarged bore, the bead is then free to pass over the leader knot. The 8mm Rubber Shock Beads are made from an extra tough polymer and provide the perfect shock absorber when used in running lead and marker float setups. The tapered bore provides a perfect snug fit for the eye of a size 9 swivel. Features: 25 per packet 5mm Bead fits perfectly fits over 0.5mm silicone Great for heli or chod rigs 8mm Beads are perfect for running rigs Durable

ESP Cryogen Slammer Hooks The point length has been increased to mirror the hugely successful Trig and Chod Hammers resulting in incredibly sharp hooks straight out of the packet.  On the two largest sizes 4 and 5 the wire gauge has been stepped up by 0.1mm for improved strength and the heavy forging helps accentuates this. However due to the point length to wire diameter ratio used the points are still long, fine and needle sharp.  The twin tempering process of heat and cryogenic tempering ensures formidable strength and point durability with just the right degree of shock absorbing ‘spring’ – neither too soft nor too brittle. As per all the other Cryogen hooks in the range, these feature a slick PTFE Tuflon coating and micro barbs which ensure excellent penetration and secure hook holds. Enlarged eye diameters pro-rata across the range of sizes allow for thicker monofilaments to be used with the knotless knot.Features: Longer, finer points that are incredibly sharp straight out of the packet 0.1mm wire diameter increase on the 4’s and 5’s Point length to diameter ratio means the point length is increased in proportion to the wire diameter - maintaining incredibly sharp points even on a relatively heavy wire diameter Heavy forging accentuates the heavier wire gauge Twin tempering process of heat and cryogenic tempering ensures formidable strength and point durability with just the right degree of shock absorbing ‘spring’ - neither too soft nor too brittle Available in barbed and barbless. The slick ptfe coating and micro barbs ensure excellent pricking, penetration and secure hook holds Enlarged eye diameters for thick monofilaments with three times through the eye knotless knots

ESP Cryogen Grip Rigger Hooks 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.      The initial launch of ESP Cryogen hooks in March 2016 caused a massive stir with discerning anglers quickly recognising the distinct technical advantages they offered. They were the result of over three years of development and field testing which culminated in a new standard in strength and point durability. 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 PTFE coated carp hooks in the same wire gauge. We subsequently sent the hooks for independent scientific testing on hardness and tensile strength and the tests carried out confirmed and supported our initial findings. So rather than having to improve strength by simply increasing wire gauge, new manufacturing processes have allowed us to maintain optimum wire gauges for each size which allow for fine, ultra-sharp needle points which are now more durable than ever. ESP is now delighted to introduce three new patterns into the Cryogen range, with each type having been developed, tested and 'tweaked' over the last 18 months. They have proved outstanding in field testing and provide an even greater choice in high-performance, long-lasting carp hooks. FEATURES Barbless Three years of development Cryogenically tempered Incredibly strong Durable ultra sharp needle points Long beaked points Tufflon coated

ESP Anchor Braid The soft feel of Anchor Braid ensures it follows the contours of the lake bed and the weight of the fibres ensures it sinks heavily without the need for tungsten putty. The smooth tightly woven structure makes it easy to work with when threading through hook eyes etc and the round profile resists tangling. A dark, muted blend of coloured fibres provide excellent camouflage and Anchor braid blends in over a variety of substrates making it really inconspicuous and a definite edge when fishing for pressured, rig shy carp in clear water. Perfect for any rig that requires a soft braided hook link, from short rigs for PVA bags and method feeders, to combining it with fluorocarbon for a stiff/supple combi-rig.For optimum knot strength, we recommend a twice through the eye five turn grinner. Features: 10m spool Combination of woven heavyweight and Dyneema fibres Excellent knot strength Supple Smooth tightly woven structure 15lb & 20lb
