It may still be decidedly chilly out but daylength is increasing and there is a definite feel of spring in the air whenever the sun is out – and so the thoughts of most of us are probably beginning to turn to getting ready for our spring and summer fishing.
So, what better time to get that gear sorted and to pick up a few new bits to prepare for the new season? Our friends at Sportfish think so too and have knocked 25% off the price of a huge range of tackle from leading manufacturers such as Nash, Fox, Korda, Trakker, Chub and Drennan. It’s not all top end hardware either, as well as the rods, reels and bedchairs you’ll find plenty of bait and terminal bits too.

We will be featuring some of the items in the sale here on FM and one of the larger items that caught our eye was the Fox FX11 reel – a terrific scaled-down big pit reel which, although compact, is still capable to being used on high test curve rods and will cast a rig well in excess of 150 yards in the right hands.
The FX11 features super-slow oscillation that gives impeccable line lay and improved casting distance. The FX11 also features Quick Clutch that allows the user to go from the spool being locked up to free running in just half a turn of the drag. It also features:
• Super-slow oscillation
• 95cm of line retrieved per handle turn
• Hardwearing, graphite body, with minimalist matt styling
• Rotor brake
• Anti-backlash system
• Micro line lay adjustment
• Rotor line guard
• Quick Clutch
• Front clutch grit guard
• Slim black handle
• 2 Range Casting Line Clips – one black, one silver
• CNS System
• Rotor Balanced Profile
• Twist free roller
• Mesh-Tech gearing system
• Pro cast lip on spool
It’s great value at the RRP of £169.99 but at the sale price of £127.50 it’s a reel steal…
Grab one, or better still a set of three, HERE before they are all gone.
