A couple of new lines this time. The Korda Subline  comes in translucent green or brown and is extremely tough supple and super heavy. This stuff sinks like a brick and comes of the spool with virtually no twist and has a very soft supple feel to it. If you fish slack lines and want a tough reliable line, Korda Subline may be the answer. For more information or to purchase please click on the above link. The  Ace Velocity Leader Line  is aimed at the angler fishing at distance. It features a high breaking strain leader end which tapers down to normal mainline i.e. 25lb leader end tapering to 10lb mainline. This means no more knots to catch and cause birdsnests. The Ace Velocity leader Line has the tapered leader at both ends, so when the leader gets a bit worn you just turn it round saving you money as well.

The new Nash Deliverance Spods feature a unique dimpled nose cone taken from golf ball technology. This dimpling ensures that the Nash Deliverance Spod  has a longer, and straighter flight giving both increased distance and pinpoint accuracy. The nose cone is also specially loaded for retrieval with minimum effort. For more information or to purchase please click on the above link.

The Solar Quick Change PVA Bag System is ideal for anglers who use PVA bags for the majority of their angling. The system will ensure you don’t lose the bag on the cast while improving casting distance and accuracy. The system is designed to be anti tangle and works with any inline lead.

For the purpose of this demonstration I used a Korda Flat Pear Inline Lead, Solar Contour Super Supple Rig Tubing and Korda Size 8 Ring Swivels  was used between the helicopter beads for the rig to be attached to.

Step 1.

Thread your mainline through your desired length of the Solar rig tubing.

Step 2.

Now thread 1 of the beads provided with the Solar PVA System onto the rig tubing followed by the Korda Ring Swivel followed by another bead. If you’re using mainline straight through there is silicone tubing provided for the beads to the grip. If you’re using leadcore then please ensure all beads can be pulled free of the leader to ensure the lead will be lost in the event of your line breaking. Tie or loop your hooklink to the ring swivel.

Step 3.

Now thread on one of the sleeves provided and push the tubing securely inside.

Step 4.

Then gently push the insert out of your choosen inline……

…..and thread it onto your mainline.

Step 5.

Tie a Figure Of Eight Loop Knot  in the end of your mainline and attach the Solar quick change PVA bag clip like so.

Step 6.

Now pull the lead over the clip followed by the sleeve and rig tubing. The finished setup should look like this.

All you have to do to attach a PVA bag is to pull the clip out of the bottom of the lead and hook a PVA bag on before pulling the clip back inside the lead. Then just thread the hook through the mesh of the bag and your ready to cast out.

This set up is particularly well suited to adding freebies with the Mag Aligner Rig and really comes into it’s own during the winter months.

Give it a go.

As well as the usual Hangers and Swingers there are other indicator setups available. The Majority of these setups have more specific uses like the Solar Quiverloc or the Matrix Kompressor are designed for long range fishing where tension on the line from the indicator is required. You could also fit the Matrix add-on weights or the Solar Drag Weights which come in 3 different sizes to your original setup for long range fishing but the Solar Quiverloc and Matrix Kompressor indicators are designed to help with bite indication at long range.
