- Daiwa Saltist Advanced Interline Boat Rods
My first review . I have started using interine rods this year and liked the look of the adv interline rod so went and bought one after using it all season all i can say is wow what a piece of kit i opted for the 20lb version as wanted more action with this rod you get a total diffrent feeling when you hook a fish it is supple at the tip but has so much power through the mid to butt section i landed fish over 24lb with ease i would highly recomend this rod only one downside is it can be tricky getting the braid or line through the rod blank using the tool supplied but once its threaded this rod preforms amazingly and there is no guides to break or get caught up on - IMAX Coast Thermo Smock
Although a warm smock, too many people saying they are failing at the seams and as such losing waterproof abilities - Daiwa 7HT Mag
What a cracking reel! The magnofuge system means that it's pretty much impossible to birdsnest with the mags on full. The power handle is a nice touch and not too much for the size of the reel. It's easy to grip the spool up or down the but as the reel sits low to the blank. One of the best reels out there for clean ground work in my opinion. - Daiwa Saltist Black Gold 20 / BG20
I have been using the Daiwa Saltist BG20 for 12 months now. When I first got my Saltist's, the first thing that struck me was the build quality. It's a stunning black annodised cage for corrosion resistance and gold spool. Everything about this reel says quality, it feels solid and well engineered. The retrieve is a 6.1:1 which is nice and fast for the snaggiest of places where a quick retrieve can make a difference of getting your gear back. The drag system is amazing, nice and smooth with a lovely clicking action and sets easy not unlike the lower end reels. The ratchet/ clicker is the best I have used and is still working like new 12 months later. Unlike like some reels the clicker becomes useless after a while, the saltist still indicates a good fish take and very audible, ideal when you have a noisey surf running and your busy baiting up. Comes fitted with centrifugal brakes, I only use one currently which is fine for my style of casting, and so far I have had very few overruns, and the ones I have are down to me. Casting is smooth as it gets with the saltist and is very useable, where even new multiplier casters could easily tame this reel. Its not an out right casting reel for competitions this is a reel for fishing and this is where it shines. I have used this on clean ground where it handles everything with ease. The retrieve is so smooth I tend to use this for all my fishing now clean or rough ground. There is no roll back on the spool like on the Sloshes, you wind in and it sets where you want it. Rough ground though is where the this reel comes in to its own. A lovely strong drag for setting hooks or trying to get free from snags. The torque that this reel produces is simply impressive it is like a mini tractor. The quick retrieve and the torque does not spoil the experience of fishing at all, the smoothness though adds to the pleasure. Being able to adjust the drag when playing a big fish is easy and precise. I have used a lot of reels of the last 10 years, and the Saltist are by far my favourite. Expensive, well they cost more than the other manufacturers equivalent, but in comparision to those it's easy there is none. You get what you pay and with this you get a stunning reel that will last and is a fantastic all round fishing reel. 10 out of 10 - Northern Norway Shore Fishing, Bodo
Have stayed with Simon a few times now and have known him over 2 years. The apartment is spacious and well equipped with everything you need. Also with Simons knowledge of Bodo and the surrounding area you really can't go wrong. The apartment is a 15 minute drive from the airport with a supermarket en route. Having been to Norway 16 times now this really is as good as it gets. - Owner Pint Hooks
Really good quality hooks, best couple of pound you'll possibly spend , great for match fishing with small crab baits, nice and sharp and won't struggle to hook into a fish - RockGrip - Fishing Boot Studding
They have saved my arse on more than one occasion, let me tell you! Improve your grip, improve your fishing and be safe! - Breakaway Fastlink Clips
Tried and tested Stood test of time Often copied but not same quality Never failed Great product like most breakaway stuff - Eddystone Eel 2013
Canny lure first tried them last year if I'm correct and caught my first bass on this lure great lure also good for pollock highly recommended - Daiwa Sandstorm
i have the fixed spool 12ft version of these 4-8oz they are a nice weighty rod they cast very well easy 150yards plus in the right hands they look nice in the samdstrom black and yellow also the eyes of the rod have a yellow reflective coating with shows up great in the dark the only thing i found that the rubber butt was a bit big to fit in the cups on a ian golds super match so i shaved them fown a tad but i no diawa do sell the slim line butt rubber which is ideal for these rods apart from that have used them over a year on all types of fishing smooth and rough ground and they have performed well with everything i have threw at them for high to low temperatures the have always been a relaible rod if you like the real light weight rods these may not be for you as there is a bit of weight to them but they are a good soild rod yes i woulf highly recommend these - Varivas Full Circle
Excellent when fishing a popped up bait for Bass. I prefer a short shank J pattern when the bait is on the bottom, but popped up these are almost guaranteed a good hook hold. - Snowbee Rock Hopper Boots
These revolutionised my fishing and that's no exaggeration. Some rock marks that were out of commission In the rain are now easily fished. The confidence that the grip gives you means that you fish a lot happier. They are also incredibly comfortable. The spikes do wear down after a few months, but show me a spiked Boot where they don't! - Kamasan B940M
I find this pattern best on fishing shallow beaches for small flats ect where there is no lifting fish as they do bend easily and could lose fish lifting up a river wall. - Ultima Distance
Great line perfect with knots nice and stronge would recommend to anyone great stuff - Thyers Fishing Tackle Ltd, Highbridge
Great little shop Jeff is always smiling and makes a great cuppa - Laura Dawn, Oban, Argyll & Bute. Skipper: Ronnie Campbell
Ronnie Campbell is a true gentleman Always willing to help and always a great day afloat wether going for the Big Girls (Common Skate) or general fishing 10/10 - Turkana Pyramid Sinker Lead
well worth the money an great sinker but u get quality with turkana tackle - Ultima Enigma Super Snood
Strong line i use this for many of my hook lengths - Ian Golds Super-Match Tripod
By far the best tripod I've ever owned. Very sturdy and with the added leg lock kit has great stability and is easy to move up and down the beach during matches. Have added the trace bar and I think my next purchase will be a side cup for keeping the rod low. Great tripod. - Holton Road Angling- South Glamorgan
Barrys finest tackle and bait shop - Gemini Super Strength Genie Link Clips
I've used the standard version for years so thought I'd give these a go. Yes, they seem stronger, but I never really had any issues with the strength of the original ones. I suppose that you do get a little extra safety margin, which can only be a good thing. - Varivas Semi Circle
i have use these on and off and always had great success with them for the smaller species. The design prevents fish deep hooking. Very sharp and very strong. - Breakaway Conversion Accessory Tray
As previously mentioned, this is a useful shelf for the box but the design will not suit everyone's needs, ie lead types, spools etc. I have seen some adaptions made by anglers which is good if you are practical. - TronixPro Cobra GT
I can totally agree that this is a superb rough ground rod. The power in the rod is totally unbelievable but the bite detection is absolutely awesome even the smallest bites are easily detected even. One of, if not the best fixed spool rod for Bristol Channel fishing on the market. I would also add if you would like to purchase this rod and your local tackle shop has one I wouldn't hesitate for too long as they sell out fast - Kamasan B940M
I have gone over to these from the ordinary b940s for my match rigs.. Fine wire and strong enough for likely catches in matches.. Sharp is an understatement!! Never had one bend out on a fish when reeling it in , but have snapped them when trying to get them out of deep hooked fish!! - Fox Halo Lt100 Lamp
I really like the look of this light. Ideal for hanging in a beach shelter, giving a certain sense of comfort through a long dark night. - Sunset Amnesia
The only line I will use for snoods on my clip down rigs, flappers etc. It is easy to tie and with awesome knot strength. - Penn Affinity 7000
I have one of these and let me down first time using it winding in a cod about 2lb the reel locked up and went really tight to reel in. Never used it since - Leeda Icon M-Sport Ultra Power
The strongest rod of the M-sport range a fantastic rod for casting big baits into the kelp or rocks - LED Lenser H14R.2
A nice light and very bright headlamp. It is relatively lightweight and compact compared to some of the lamps available. A variable beam that is easily adjusted from spot to flood and back again. 2 levels of brightness with a boost function. I love this light but there a few niggles. Firstly make sure you have spare batteries with you it has yet to last me one night session on the supplied battery. (I always carry spares and a back up lamp as well) If I am not wearing the lamp at the beginning of the session I remove the batteries if it is in my bag as I have found it is very easy to turn on, especially the year red LED on the battery pack, I was often getting the lamp out to use finding it flashing away before I even started. Only minor things for a great very powerful reliable and well priced lamp. Do shop around though as prices vary massively, and be aware there is a H14 as well as well the H14R.2 which is more powerful and comes with battery and charger. - Jensen, Liverpool, Merseyside. Skipper: Anthony Parry
great skipper would recommend having a trip on board jensen - Ron Thompson Beach Buddy
I can't find many problems with my beach buddy I have had it for 5 years now and it gets used regularly as I go fishing at least once a week, 3 of my regular fishing buddies use these as well and we have been out on the beach in 40 mph winds with horizontal rain and they all held up well with no difficulties. - Korda Mixa Hooks
Another great hook paternity from korda - Asso Hardskin
Very good and strong line sits nice on the reel and comes in some good colours would recommend it any day - Berkley Trilene Big Game
This to me is a must line for fishing any type of rough ground its not the thinnest line so gives you more abrasion resistance and it sits on the reel well straight off the spool doesn't need bedding in like most lines - Gemini Tackle
Use a Lot of Gemini products on my rigs , the Links and swivels are unbeatable and Will never Use anytging different.. Great value for money too... - Penn Surfblaster 8000
Stunning value for money. The line lay is about as good as it gets on a fixed spool. You can use really light braids without fear of line twist. Really smooth too, even under load. Some people moan about tackle made in China but this is great for the money and performs as well as reels twice the cost! - Tronix Rolling Swivels
I use these on all my rigs and have never failed me. Cheap and reliable these swivels can handle any thing and do not rust - Kamasan B940
These are my preferred hook in the 1/0 to 4/0 size range for my general pleasure fishing from the shore. Good strength and sharpness and reasonably priced in most tackle shops. For the smaller sizes that I use in a lot of match fishing I prefer the B940M ones due to the finer wire. - Penn Fathom 15
I've owned 4 for a good couple years now. Brilliant cranking power, smooth casting, nice loud ratchet, solid metal construction and a nice chunky handle to get hold of.. Out of the box they are very capable reels but personally feel they benefit from having a mono mag conversion to make them more controlable and eliminate the issue of break blocks wearing out so fast.. even with the added cost of a mag conversion which is around £30 they are still very good value for money. - Baits R Us
A fantastic bait supplier. Delivery is excellent, it always arrives well packed and still frozen, I've even had live rag by post and its still been top notch. If you live locally you can phone and collect bait too (saves postage charge). Bait prices are really good overall. I also like their smaller 'handy pack' sizes on bait like squid for a quick fishing session. They also now have a stock of terminal tackle, leads etc, which is really handy. - Damiltech Solutions Tray Toppa
Probably the best invention yet, this toppa tray says what it is in the name "toppa" best £3.50 I've spent. All my weights were at the bottom of my box before I purchased this. - Sea Angler
Magazines have fell that far behind with publishing the same info year in year out and every other page a advert just keeps pushing buyers away along with everything they test is the dogs danglies well am afraid that's not the case you never see a bad review wonder why as we all know there is some crap gear on the market. - My Way, Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey. Skipper: Gethyn Owen
Gethin own,skipper of the boat is a man of knowledge and huge experiance from hollyhead ive landed my pb smoothound here of 19lbs 12ozs - Penn Affinity 7000
I've used this reel on a vercelli I love launching it at places like chesil but happily suited to fishing close on Weston beach My brother has same reel and abuses it and after owning it for over a year it's still in perfect condition having no faults - Korda Original Funnel Web PVA System
Always in my pva kit - Breakaway Fastlink Clips
Fantastic product The link being closed (inside) makes it virtually snag free, great for fishing into kelp etc Also a fast rig changing item when used on the end of your leader - Daiwa SL30SH
Bullet proof - ESP Syncro XT Line
Have this product in 10lb breaking strain it's superb has great casting property's and is super tough. This is now my go to main line absolutely love it. It does everything I want and need it to do either fishing at distance or more intimate venues - Ian Golds Super-Match Tripod
Best tripod on the market! Sturdy and great for match anglers as it has the leg lock kit and trace bar this provides luminous cups to be able to see them in the dark Nothing I can say apart from top quality!!
