ESP Controller FloatsThe special fluted shape provides extra stability both in flight and in water.
The bomb weight on the bottom is aerodynamic for distance casting and balanced so that the controller sits low in the water, helping maintain position when mending the line.
The high vis top is perfect for bite indication even at distance and the translucent body is unobtrusive - perfect for stalking wary surface feeding carp.
Features:
Aerodynamic
Minimum disturbance on impact
Semi-transparent
Ultralight
Buoyant body is far more durable than balsa or foam
ESP Camo Net Float
Featuring ultra-buoyant foam and a tough 600d camo shell these net floats are secured by simply screwing the spreader block to the landing net handle through the top hole in the camo material.

The Small float complements the ESP Quickdraw landing net handle perfectly while the Large 200mm will fit most handles on the market.
The foam is buoyant enough to support deep net meshes.Features:
Available in two lengths Small (120mm) and Large (200mm)
Tough and durable PU backed camo material
Ultra-buoyant EVA foam
Tough 600d camo shell

ESP Bait Drill 6mm
Ergonomic, non-roll handle. Corrosion resistant drill bit with sharp point for precise drilling without splitting bait. Adjusting the amount of cork allows everything from precise balancing of baits to extra buoyant pop-ups.
Corrosion resistant drill bits
Sharp brad-points for precision drilling holes without splitting the bait.
4mm ideal for smaller baits, 6mm for nuts, boilies etc, 8mm for larger 18mm+ boilies.
Supplied with cork sticks in the same diameter as the drill bit and corresponding hole
ESP Marker Gum Orange
ESP Marker Gum is the perfect material for tying stop knots on monofilament and braided main lines to maintain consistent accuracy when clipping up and casting to baited spots and features.
It works in exactly the same way as the popular pole elastics used for marker knots but ESP Marker Gum is much finer in diameter, nominally 0.45mm but under tension, it will stretch and contract to around just 0.30mm.
This fine diameter produces tiny knots which simply fly through the rings without hindering distance.
The different colours can be used on the same reel to mark different spots.
A simple 3 turn stop knot tightened down will grip the line securely and not move. To remove the knot simply cut one of the tag ends flush with the knot and pull on the other tag end to release.
Available on 5m spools (although by stretching the material down you end up with almost twice as much).
Features:
5m spool
Fine diameter
No damage to mainline
Produces tiny knots
Available in fluoro orange.
ESP Cryogen Trig-Hammer XT Hooks
Trig-Hammer XT is an extra tough long shank pattern dedicated to Ronnie/Spinner rigs but equally suited to bottom bait presentations.
Ultra sharp, long life needle points with an aggressive shape result in exceptional hook holds.
The heavy gauge wire, high pressure forging and twin tempering process result in hooks with minimal flex and maximum strength.
ESP Shank Stops
Shank Stops are housed on a handy frame that can be stored neatly in the tackle box. No more problems trying to extract a tiny stop from a flip-top box.
The frame contains 40 stops, 20 of each mini and small.
The mini stops are perfect for hook sizes 8 and 10, whilst the small are best suited to larger hooks. Moulded in a soft, clingy material in a conical shape, the holes at each end do not quite meet in the middle, leaving a central membrane which is pierced by the hook point resulting in a secure, tight fit on the hook shank which will not slip on the cast and therefore requires no glueing.Features:
20 Mini Shank Stops
20 Small Shank Stops
Housed on handy frame
Moulded in a soft, clingy material
Conical shape
Tight fit
Won't slip on cast
ESP Cap 3D Logo Olive GreenThe cap features a Velcro adjustment allowing the cap to fit all. With a 3D ESP logo on the front of the cap.
Features:
One size fits all
Velcro adjustment
ESP Chod Rig Sleeves
The flexible silicone tube is mounted onto a soft sleeve which houses the lead retaining clip and provides a neat, streamlined system.
You might wonder why this component is comprised of two parts, rather than being moulded as one piece.
Well, the thermoplastic rubber used to mould the clip link retaining sleeve is malleable yet tough and is perfect for sleeving the clip link yet does not have the soft flexibility and inherent ‘spring’ of good old silicone tube so ESP have combined the two materials to create the perfect shock absorber buffer sleeve for chod rig work.
The silicone tube can be shortened if required, as can the clip retaining sleeve if the leader is tied directly to the lead loop.Features:
6 per packet
Soft, flexible silicone sleeve acts as a buffer
Prevents the hook from coming into contact with the lead
ESP Cryogen Gripper Hooks
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. Over three years of development and the last two years spent thoroughly field testing prototype samples has culminated in the launch of a new range of hooks that we believe sets 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 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 us to maintain optimum wire gauges for each size which allow for fine, ultra-sharp needle points which are now more durable than ever. Over an exhaustive two-year field testing period where the hooks were used by around 15 independent specialist carp anglers plus ESP consultants Terry Hearn, Kev Hewitt and Martin Bowler, feedback has been wholly positive from everyone.
In fact, we have barely heard of a point turning over let alone a hook gaping out! Over those two years, a serious amount of big carp have been caught on the new hooks from a wide variety of waters and every angler who has used them came back wanting more!Features:
Barbless or Micro barbed
Three years of developmentIncredibly strong
Durable ultra sharp needle points
Tufflon coated
10-degree inturned eye
ESP Double Ring Swivel Size 9One ring Provides the all-important flexible hinge for the hooklink while the other, the attachment for the leadcore leader.
These setups are particularly effective when stalking carp in weedy margins as the swivel easily pulls out to its housing allowing the lead to fall away.Features:
8 per packet
Extra strong
Matt non-glare finish
Perfect for drop off in-line lead set ups
