The BEST rubber mesh we stock for Pike fishing ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

A good rubber mesh is an essential bit of kit for pike fishing, and the rubberised mesh from E.T. Products is the best one we have found.

The rubber material is incredibly soft and fish friendly whilst the net itself is easy to pack away and shake dry to reduce bad odours and the risk of transferring disease or bacteria across venues ๐Ÿฆ

Have you tried the new Fish Fizzers ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿค”

We have been stocking these dissolvable fizzing pellets for a couple of months now and theyโ€™ve certainly proven popular - designed to mimic the sound of the carps natural food source as well as helping to disperse your bait across a wider zone.

These are ideal for creating a bit of a different presentation with solid or mesh bags. They can even be spombed out, which is something shop owner Kev tried recently to great success with carp to over 40lb ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

We have recently had a restock of these and if you want to try them out for yourself they are available in store and online at the Tackle Box โœ…

One of our most popular products is BACK ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿปโ€ฆ

You may remember our Guesti Seat from a couple of years ago - a lightweight, compact bedchair buddy and guest seat.

Well we have been asked plenty of times whether this product would be coming back and weโ€™re pleased to say that not only is it back but it has also had some improvements!

If you spend long periods of time sitting on your bedchair, youโ€™ll know that it does no favours for your back - the Back Support Bivvy Seat combats that by offering back support and promoting comfort and good posture.

This is an incredibly lightweight and compact chair and can be folded up flat and stored inside your bed chair. Alternatively it doubles up as a guesty chair, for stalking and roving on rivers and other general outdoor use such as camping, festivals, sporting events and picnics ๐Ÿ•๏ธ

Available now at The Tackle Box for just ยฃ29.99๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿปโœ…: https://tacklebox.co.uk/tackle-box-back-support-bivvy-seat/

3๏ธโƒฃ Reasons to visit the Tackle Box if youโ€™re getting ready for the Pike season ๐ŸŠ

1๏ธโƒฃ We source our own super fresh dead baits from Billingsgate fish market. Vacuum packed from frozen as soon as they are bought back to the shop. This also allows us to stock rarer and harder to source dead baits.

2๏ธโƒฃ - We stock Pike tackle that you wonโ€™t find in other shops. We are the only stockist of E.T. products - a heritage Pike brand which has recently been relaunched to include some excellent, well designed Pike tackle, rods and nets.

3๏ธโƒฃ - We have an extensive range of lures - from spinners to soft plastics and everything inbetween. We are continuing to expand this section of the shop with new arrivals from Westin in store this week.

Good luck if youโ€™re getting ready for the Pike season ahead and we hope to see you in store soon ๐Ÿ’š

We are pleased to bring you our NEW Darent Valley Specimen V2 Rods ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

These will be replacing the original Darent Valley Specimen rods as we felt we could improve and update the rods in line with modern specifications.

The new V2s feature an upgraded carbon which is lightweight and excellent for rod recovery whilst still retaining an affordable price - the V2s range from ยฃ79.99 to ยฃ95.99.

We have changed the overall aesthetic too with a black on black look, green whippings and modern abbreviated / shrink handles.

The Darent Valley motto has always been to produce good quality, reliable rods at an affordable price and we feel we have achieved that with the V2s!

Available now at The Tackle Box in 10 and 12ft 3.5lb and Spod. We are expecting the more progressive action 3lb model to be with us early next year. We hope you enjoy using the V2s as much as the original Darent Valley Specimens.
