The vote is open for the MyAD Choice Awards 2026! As anglers we all have one item of fishing tackle that we could not do without on the bank. In this category, we have chosen six products that our team feel have been essential products to anglers in our stores over the last 12 months.
When temperatures drop, having multiple layers becomes essential. The Speero Sherpa Fleece Lined Shirt - Green is designed to keep carp anglers warm and comfortable during colder sessions, combining a tough outer layer with a thick sherpa fleece lining for serious insulation. It works just as well as a warm outer layer during milder days as it does as part of a layering system when winter really sets in. Comfortable, practical and built with anglers in mind, it is the kind of dependable clothing you will reach for time and time again during long sessions.
Keeping essential tackle organised and within easy reach can make a big difference during a busy session, and the Nytro SLS 36 Slida-Tray is designed to do exactly that. Built to fit seamlessly into a modern seatbox setup, the tray provides a convenient space for storing rigs, feeders, bait tools and other small items. Its smooth sliding design allows quick access without interrupting your fishing, helping you stay organised while on the bank. Simple, practical and incredibly useful, it is the kind of accessory that quickly becomes part of every match angler’s setup.
speed and consistency are key when it comes to feeder fishing, and Fjuka's Squeez-Ready Coloured Method Pellets deliver both. Designed to be ready to use straight from the pack, they remove the guesswork from pellet preparation and allow coarse and match anglers to focus on fishing. The vibrant colours help create extra visual attraction around the feeder, while the carefully prepared texture ensures they bind well when used in a method mix. Easy to use and highly effective, they are a great option for anglers looking to simplify their bait preparation without sacrificing performance.
A comfortable sleep system can transform longer sessions, and the Solar SP C-Tech Memory Foam Sleep System MKII is designed with exactly that in mind. Featuring a thick memory foam mattress and Solar’s renowned build quality, it offers exceptional comfort and support through the night. The sturdy frame and adjustable legs provide stability on uneven banks, while the overall design keeps everything compact and easy to transport. Built for carp anglers who spend serious time on the bank, it delivers comfort levels that make overnight sessions far more enjoyable.
The Deeper Chirp+ 4 continues to push the boundaries of portable fish finder technology. Designed to give anglers a clearer picture of what is happening beneath the surface, it uses advanced CHIRP sonar to provide incredibly detailed 3D underwater readings. Whether you are mapping new venues, locating features or finding fish holding areas, it offers valuable information that can help you approach a swim with confidence. Compact, powerful and easy to use with a smartphone, it has become a go-to tool for carp anglers looking to better understand the water they are fishing.


Few baits have stood the test of time like hempseed, and Dynamite’s Frenzied Hempseed continues to prove why it remains such a firm favourite among anglers. Prepared and cooked to perfection, it releases natural oils and attraction into the water, helping to keep fish feeding in the swim. It is incredibly versatile too, working well for species such as carp, barbel, tench and bream. Whether used on its own or as part of a larger baiting mix, it remains a reliable option that anglers return to again and again.
