Our pick of the latest goodies to hit the banks
PRESTON INNOVATIONS MONSTER XTREME HANDLES
WHAT THEY SAY: A range of four super-strong landing net handles designed especially for use with larger net heads for banking big fish, or in conventional style in big weight situations.
Despite the additional strength, each model remains both light and stiff, allowing anglers to scoop fish with ease.
Available in 2.5m, 3m and 4m with a single pinned and glued thread, and a XS 3.6m version with an additional thread in the second section, allowing it to be used at a range of lengths. WHAT WE SAY: Although predominantly a match brand, Preston is clearly trying to entice specialist anglers with these new extra-strong handles.
Price: 2.5m-4m £34.99-£49.99, XS 3.6m £59.99, www. prestoninnovations.com

The two larger sizes have added depth, perfect for specimen fish. Available in 18ins, 20ins, 22ins and 24ins.
WHAT WE SAY: Like a standard match head, just bigger! Made to handle the now increasingly bigger fish encountered by match and pleasure anglers.
PRICE: £16.99 - £19.99, www. prestoninnovations.com
