ESP Cryogen Curve Shanx Hooks
These Curves are now around 25% stronger than their predecessors while still retaining long fine needle sharp points which are now extra durable.
These are highly effective in a whole variety of rig presentations (perfect for the Ronnie Rig) and their quick turning, anti-eject shape combined with a needle sharp point ensures exceptional hook holds. 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 in 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.

Drennan Revolution Tangle Free Caty
The perennial problem with catapults is twisting up of the elastic. So these have a special attachment at the frame end that is designed to revolve freely and reduce such tangles to an absolute minimum.
Rigorous feeding methods such as pellet waggler fishing have meant we have had to produce a catapult that is extremely tough and durable.
The handle is ergonomically correct, fitting the hand perfectly, and the best way to reduce elastic wear at the frame end is to have a straight attachment peg, protruding ‘in the line of pull’.
Similarly, the pouches are designed with constant feeding of baits like hard pellets. They are produced under strict moulding conditions from a super-tough polymer.
Rotation bearings and special cluster feed pouches help to maintain a tight spread of bait.
These models have been many months in development, field-testing and production and the difference in quality of build is clearly visible!Aqua Revolution Caty – The lightest catapult in the range with Ultra Soft elastic. This is ideal with small particle baits and short-range work up to around 13-14 metres. Ideal with squats, pinkies, hemp, casters and small pellets.
Red Revolution Caty – Again, ideal for shorter ranges but with Light elastic for pole fishing and short-range waggler work up to around 16 metres. Ideal with baits such as maggots, casters, hemp and pellets up to 6mm.
Green Revolution Caty – A larger frame size with Strong latex. Perfect for pellet waggler and standard float work with maggots and casters, right up to 8mm and 10mm pellets. This is also a great model for firing small pigeon-egg size balls of groundbait.
Orange Revolution Caty – Large frame with orange X-Strong latex. The more powerful elastic makes it ideal for 8mm and 10mm pellets at range or in windy conditions. It is also a great catapult for pouching maggots and casters as far as possible.
Like the green Revolution Caty, it is also useful for firing out small balls of groundbait.

The NXG PVA Pouches are a lot more than the name suggests... the original version designed for storing PVA products that was subsequently used for storing a multitude of items and became quite possibly one of the most popular luggage items in carp angling history! The insulated zipped pouch can be used to store items such as leads, pre-made PVA mesh or solid bags or anything else you can fit inside. With a total of ten internal storage pockets, it’s amazing the amount of gear you can store inside. The zipped central divider has a large, zipped mesh pocket one side and six large end tackle pockets on the other. The NXG PVA pouch can accommodate small tackle boxes and rig boards making it a hugely versatile storage solution. The pouch is heavily padded for protection, made with hard-wearing n-dura fabric with a waterproof base and grab handle to transport in and out of larger bags.
Drennan Carp Method Barbless Hair Rigs
Barbless Carp Method Hair Rigs are convenient, pre-tied hooklengths complete with a hair-rig and are perfect for the Method feeder.
The hooks are a double extra strong pattern which uses the same proven shape as the Barbless Carp Feeder. Its special bend definitely helps to hook and land more carp.
Tied to 3” (8cm) of mono, these Method Hair Rigs are presented lying straight and flat rather than partly coiled.
Ready to use, straight from the packet and even with the thickest mono used, the line has not taken up an unfortunate ‘coil’ or set.
The length of the hair has been carefully matched to the hook size, getting progressively longer from 18’s to 8’s to correctly accommodate the different sizes of bait appropriate to each hook.

Designed for use with method feeders

Trakker have ensured that the large main compartment of the fishing carryall is lined and well-padded to accommodate and protect your carp fishing gear in transit. Heavy-duty dual zips are present on the main compartment and all external pockets of this tackle bag. The stiffened main compartment lid ensures the fishing carryalls keep their shape and form when the contents inside has been removed. Another great feature is that the lid of this carp tackle bag can be used as a bivvy table saving space inside your fishing shelter.
As you would expect from a Trakker carryall, this tackle bag boasts an incredible amount of storage, with a large main compartment that can be used to store all your carp fishing essentials. Internally, there is also a large zipped heavy-duty mesh pocket on the underside of the lid. Trakker have increased the depth of the side pockets on this tackle bag to 10cm each side, allowing bulky items such as tackle boxes to be stored and free up internal space in the main compartment for other carp fishing tackle. If that was not enough, there is also two further large zipped front pockets and a large single rear zipped pocket, making the overall capacity of this fishing carryall for its size huge so it can suit your carp fishing needs.
A great addition to these fishing carryalls is the rear of this Pro Carryall Large features two webbing loops, which offer an alternate shoulder strap attachment. This allows the padded shoulder strap to be used to secure the bag onto the frame of a fishing barrow or attach to other fishing tackle when loading boats for transporting. Trakker have made the base of this fishing carryall from a hard wearing waterproof material to ensure that no water can get to your valuable fishing tackle from underneath the fishing rucksack. This carp fishing carryall also features twin-direction heavy duty zips, which makes access quick and easy. This fishing carryall features Velcro neoprene carry handles and heavy duty webbing straps, with additional neoprene grab handles for lifting. Finished off in a n-dura performance fabric with the trademark Trakker DPM camo fishing luggage pattern, the Trakker NXC Pro Fishing Carryall Large is a great addition to any carp anglers gear.
