Atlantic Salmon: A Life On The Edge

This DVD is quite simply stunning. It tells the story, or rather follows the life cycle of the Wild Atlantic Salmon and follows its journey from the sea back up through the unique Fhorsa river system in Uig on the Isle of Lewis. Every catch and take filmed is real, it is like a fly on the wall documentary in many ways but one where the fish are the stars, and each fish banked makes you want to get of the sofa and grab your rods.

It’s as much about natural history on this beautiful island as it is about the fishing, either way it will prove a fantastic addition to any angler’s collection. Available on DVD Format, at £19.99 including delivery anywhere in UK.

Clever Claw - £14.99

This unique little gadget is a real boon for pole anglers, allowing them to keep the pole shipped out whilst doing all those other little tasks; pouring a drink, tying a hook length, preparing bait, catapulting out, etc. It also takes all the weight off the pole whilst fishing so you can happily fish a 16-metre pole all day long without one twinge of the back muscles! 

Inventor Nick Palmer came up with the concept after he struggled to fish the pole after a nasty back operation. The concept couldn’t be simpler; the Clever Claw can fit onto standard bank sticks, and once set, the rod or pole stays put - until you need to strike that is. By simply dropping the but of the rod or pole Clever Claw releases allowing you to strike. 

It can take a couple of sessions to get used to, though Real Ideas even supply a demo video with the product to ensure you get the best out of your purchase, which shows Four Times World Champion Bob Nudd, and 2002 Fish 'O' Mania Champion Nathan Watson getting the best out of Clever Claw.

Top Line 1000m Spool - £11.49 – £14.99

For those who give winter fishing a miss, now’s the time to re-spool and prepare for spring! I’ve been using Top Line all season, at first alongside my preferred brand, but it soon proved better, so all rods were then spooled up with 0.30mm 16lb Top Line, which lessened my previous diameter by 0.05mm yet increased the breaking strain by nearly 4lb!

Easier distance casting and improved strength – winner!
