The movie of Georg Blänich - Light Tackle sea fishing in Croatia

We all know monofilament lines stretch, braids don’t. When feeder fishing we can benefit from both! Most important when using the two is achieving the right balance that will give the best bite registration and suits your rod action as well - a setup that is too stiff could is very likely to cause line breakage when you have fish on. On the other hand, when there is too much stretch in the setup, you run the risk of not seeing the bite and miss a good number of fish and potentially losing the match.

The brand new Godfather III rod series really offers something special. This new series features 17 different rods, including some baitcaster models. All Godfather III rods offer the avid sports angler maximum joy success when exercising their hobby. I can think of no other predator rod series that is as sensitive or that gives as much detailed information to the angler as the Godfather III. With these rods you can get the best out of your lure and the best out of your fishing.

‘Fish Safety’ is one of hottest topics in carp fishing in recent years. This is a very good development considering the rapidly growing fishing pressure. Carp fishing is more popular than ever implying that our finned friends may pose in front of the camera more often than ever. Fortunately nowadays you rarely see carp anglers pose without an unhooking mat. An excellent development!

At the end of 2012, SPRO introduced the 11 cm Komodo shads. Amazing results were achieved straight from the start and despite they have only been around for about 6 months, the Komodo Shads already entered the stage of success.

Norway specialist and Spro consultant Andreas Veltrup shows how to catch some nice cod on Dull Shads in ‘shallow’ water in the Norwegian fjords. 

Hooks come in many different sizes and shapes. But which hook do you use for which bait and for which discipline. The pro staff anglers of the Spro competition team share their top 10 favourite Gamakatsu hooks.

Croatia, Jezera and the skipper Georg Blänich are not only a term for guaranteed tuna catches with German Big Game anglers. More and more European are finding Croatia a great destination for big game and light tackle sea fishing activities.

Plötzlich ist nur noch Widerstand. Eine unglaubliche Kraft zieht am anderen Ende der Leine. Und an der Rute eine Test-Rolle, die ich vorher kaum gefischt habe: Jetzt muss die Spro ZaltArc zei­gen, was wirklich in ihr steckt.

In the past year we have worked hard to expand our Strategy range of products. Stamina Ultra Sink hook link material is one of the latest in a series of new products that we launched. The feedback from anglers has been overwhelming!
