Since the coming of the Spomb, nothing truly new has emerged to threaten their dominance, until now…

WHEN DETAILS OF the TF Gear AirBomb leaked out a month or so back, the carp angling public held its collective breath. Surely this couldn’t be a product to break Spomb’s hard-won stranglehold on the bait-delivery market? Well, the early signs are that, although very different to a Spomb, the AirBomb’s unique attributes might well see it alongside its competitor in the affections of carpers, worldwide.

The Big Five

1. It’s super-stealthy So, the AirBomb works by dropping its payload in mid-air. Let that sink in for a second. The bait comes out, and only then does the rocket itself hit the water. When compared to conventional bait rockets used since time immemorial (okay, since the 1980s) this is a definite advance. Imagine the scope for stealthy baiting with floaters for instance, the light impact of the empty AirBomb, well away from the bait, isn’t going to spook anything…

2. It casts miles The shape has been carefully configured to allow for extreme-range casting. The weight-forward design and tail fin make for stable, accurate casting, whether that’s at 40yds or 140yds. The body itself it utterly robust too, which is just as well, because you’re going to be using these, a lot.

3. You can bait overhangs without risk… Here’s the clever bit: because the AirBomb spits the bait out forwards, before fluttering down to the surface, short of the baited spot, you can use it to fire bait right under savage overhanging trees without needing to possess Jedi-like skills to avoid losing the bloomin’ thing.



4. You can use it one-handed We all know that rhythm is vital to accurate baiting, especially if you’re putting a lot out, so it’s no coincidence that the AirBomb can be used one-handed to scoop up bait. Because of this, you don’t need to break your stride, or concentration to fill the thing up.

5. It offers a totally new baiting pattern Because the bait is released before impact, it projects forward, spreading as it does. The result is a wider spread of bait than is possible with conventional bait rockets. Now you can introduce a proper spread of bait in just a few casts, perfect for those pop-up rigs that we all love!
