This year sees the biggest increases in WSB Tackle products yet, with many more rods and reels on offer, covering various disciplines and price ranges. The new Orbula® collection is a range of products for the discerning fisherman including fixed spool reels in a complete spectrum from an 030 match reel to a 070 beachcasting reel and also a carp freespool reel. All come with a spare spool and four ball bearings. To compliment these reels we have developed a comprehensive range of Carbon composite rods, these include Bass, Flattie, Beachcaster, Telespin, Carp, Spinning and Boat rods.

The Attura® range of high-performance, full carbon rods, which were launched in 2007 and incorporate slim profile blanks with top quality fittings, are now accompanied by a new range of reels. These top specification reels are simply superb with stylish cosmetics, six ball bearings and a spare spool providing outstanding smoothness and all round performance. We have also introduced ranges of reels to compliment the existing Stiffi® and Bow Wave® rods.

Furthermore, our exceptionally popular High NRG and Overshadow ranges of reels are now accompanied by a High NRG Boat rod and Overshadow Beach rod. Many new accessory products are also introduced this year, including a range of PVA products, terminal tackle items, a bedchair with carry bag, chest and thigh waders, Wellingtons and bivvies.

Also new for 2008 are our ranges of fly rods and reels in the High NRG and Attura® brands. The High NRG hollow glass rods are available in two popular sizes 8ft and 9ft and feature duplon grips and graphite reel seats. The Attura® carbon fly rods are available in three sizes, 8ft, 9½ft‘ and 10ft. These rods are finished to the highest specification and are sure to be a volume seller. Both brands offer
combinations that will be perfect for the experienced and all round angler.

Last season saw a demand for a rod that would suit fishing from kayak’s or canoe’s. With this in mind we have designed the new Dinomax® Kayak. This is a strong 82cm one handed rod and would also be ideal for back-packers and yachtsmen. To compliment this, there is also a Dinomax® baitcaster reel. This little multiplier is an all round reel suitable for use as a light spinning reel. With its’ three ball bearings, levelwind, centrifugal braking system, and generous line capacity we believe you’ll be on to a winner.

As well as devoting many months to producing new product, we have been developing striking new packaging, being rolled out during 2008 for our entire range of products. Our existing water droplet and hook motifs have been combined to create a bold new logo which will appear on all packaging. Stunning new boxes have been developed for all the ranges of reels, including a complete face-lift of
the packaging for the existing High NRG and Overshadow ranges. Each range of reel now has its’ own ‘character’ created via its’ individual packaging, although all are clearly identifiable as WSB products due to the new logo. Full product specifications
are also easily found on the packaging. Our popular ranges of mono, specimen and leader line have received a similar treatment.

As always, you will find within the catalogue deals on multiple purchases of many of our own brand products, providing you with additional profit margins. We are delighted with our new products and packaging and hope that this year’s ranges ensure you have a successful and profitable 2008.
