Snowbee 3-in-1 Trout Landing Net

Posted on September 17, 2014 by fftcouk

The Snowbee 3 in 1 Trout Net comes complete with two telescopic aluminium handles.

The shorter model is only 12″ (30cm) when closed, providing an ideal river ‘scoop’ net, particularly for competition fishing. This telescopes out to 18″ (46cm) for additional reach and fits neatly within international competition rules for overall length.
The second telescopic handle extends from a closed length of 25″ (64cm) to a fully extended length of 45″ (115cm), providing an ideal river bank or small Stillwater net.

Both handles are fitted with high-density foam grips. This versatile net really is a 3-in-1 for the river or bank angler.

The D-section aluminium frame is ultra lightweight, yet offers amazing strength and rigidity. Attached to this is Snowbee’s new hexagonal Rubber-Mesh knotless net, which has a flat bottom panel for the fish to lie in – ideal for catch & release, as this design minimises scale damage.

Frame size: 16″ x 20″ (40 x 50cm). Price £59.99

All fishermen should wear glasses, prescription or Polaroids, ordinary sun glasses just will not cut it.
You need polarised glasses to stop glare and to allow you to see fish.
In New Zealand they swear by amber lenses to spot fish in their incredibly clear waters, so if you are heading of to fish waters that are clear try these Eye Level glasses, they won’t break the bank.

Loop Opti Dryfly Reel

Posted on July 23, 2013 by fftcouk

Back from Scotland, a good trip, spent in good company. The fishing I did, the wife, non-fisher person had priority on my time, was very good considering the weather. Had some long walks to some amazing Lochs where the trout fought like tigers, a nine-inch fish put a good bend in my Loop Cross S1 6# rod, I’m glad I was using 6lb Maxima line. The only downside of the trip was my 4# Orvis LA Battenkill reel falling out of my rucksack somewhere on a mountain track! Looking for a replacement as Orvis no longer make this reel, I have decided to get a Loop Opti Dry Fly to replace it, having looked at all the other reels we have, yes I will have to pay for it and no I will not claim on insurance, my fault for not securing it, if more people accepted responsibility for their own stupidity, insurance would be a lot cheaper! Wouldn’t it?

Check out the full Loop Tackle, Maxima Line and Orvis FishingTackle ranges.

Polarized Sunglasses

Posted on June 17, 2013 by fftcouk

Polarized lenses enhance visibility and reduce glare in all conditions and are must for any fishing trip, they reduce eye strain (I learnt this one the hard way from when I used to spend hours sitting in a boat in the sunshine). They also help you to spot fish that you would not see without them. As with most things the more you pay the better the quality, Eye Level are very good entry-level sunglasses, I use their amber clip-ons.

All Eye Level Polarized Sunglasses and Clip-Ons feature genuine polarized lens material which provides sharper vision in any light conditions, they also provide visibility below the surface of water which is extremely beneficial for fishing and sailing. In the past few years the great benefits of polarized products has been realised by other outdoor enthusiasts and also by general use wearers. Eye Level Polarized Sunglasses feature genuine Polarized lens materials and are available in:-

• Brown – absorbs bright sunlight to keep your eyes from tiring.
• Grey – provides a cooling effect on bright sunny days.
• Sports Yellow – brightens vision on an overcast day.
• Amber – absorbs blue light, providing strong contrast enhancement.
