Hi guy
Just wondering who makes the best and the worst carp gear.
I know every seems to hate Korda, not sure if that's a hatred of the gear or of DF.
How do you rate some of the other popular gear makers like
Nash
Fox
ESP
Korda
TF-GEAR
Any other make you like
Thanks
Paul
I'll echo what has already been said, every tackle company makes some good stuff and some stuff that shouldn't be sold.
Nash - I will not buy anything from Nash;
Fox - Love the lead clips and carp sleeves, illusion is good stuff too. Hate there feature finder leads, backleads and marker floats;
ESP - Use the big T's alots, the funnel mesh is good. Hate their unusally sized lead clips;
Korda - Widegapes, long shanks and throwing stick. Not much else, I find them expensive for what they are;
Kryston - Most of my hooklinks are from them, expensive compare to others but faultless;
Ebay - shrink tube
I used to fish with all the bells and whistles but I don't believe the hype anymore, I find I catch more and spend less if I fish 'basic'.
90% of my fishing is done with a combi link made from supa nova and illusion, widegape hook if I'm fishing over gravel or a big T if not. I always aline with a bit of shrink tube. Thats fished either as a leadclip if I think I need to drop the lead, or running rig on a slack line. Nothing complex
