Carp Den Bosch 2025

Carp den Bosch 2025 was a huge success! Our Summit Tackle boys joined forces with one of our European retailers Haka Tackle to bring you all the best bank ware. As it is our only show in Europe we are always so excited to meet all our customers from across the pond and get chatting about all thing’s angling. The Euro Pod went down a treat at the show and really was the show stopping piece on the stand. We also brought with us the long awaited Swing Arms which were well received by all and we can’t wait to officially roll them out at all the upcoming shows. We had the chance to catch up with two of our European team members, Marcel and Fred, who have exciting angling plans for the year ahead so make sure you’re following them, as well as us, on all social platforms to see what they got up to!

 

British Carp Association Championships

Over the past weekend one of our loyal customers Will Craig competed in the BCACs and came first in his division ! I’m sure you will join us in congratulating him and wish him the best of luck in the finals taking place on 7th March!
Here’s the catch from Will himself:

"We turned up to Drayton reservoir on a really cold Friday morning at 8am ready for the draw at 9am. We had a walk about and a chat with a few of the other lads. We came out last in the draw which wasn’t good. After getting all our gear set up, we was ready to start baiting up when the buzzer went off at 11am to make sure we was ready to go when the buzzer went off at 12, we got our rods out. The weather got colder and colder, with no bites to be had across the lake. At 2:30am my right hand rod come into play and kicked started our session. After getting the rod back out it went off again an hour later. In the morning we had a change up and chose to go on singles as everyone that was spodding out was struggling to catch. Within 15 minutes one of the rods was off then every 15 minutes for the next hour putting us in the lead of our section. Then it just stopped for the rest of the day. During the night we had a few more and then a few more in the morning." Placing Will first in his division by a long shot.
