Nytro Terminal Tackle

We aim to help every angler determine the right terminal tackle for their chosen fishing style and target species. Match fishing requires precision components. Size 18-22 hooks paired with 0.5-1oz feeders create the light presentation needed to catch wary fish on pressured commercial waters. For freshwater species like carp, terminal tackle is often designed with subtlety to avoid startling wary fish. The delicate approach pays dividends when fishing becomes challenging, and these fine components allow you to present small baits naturally.

Carp fishing demands a completely different approach with robust terminal tackle designed for bigger fish. Size 6-10 hooks combined with 2-4oz leads provide the strength and weight needed for hair rig presentations. Anglers targeting predatory fish like pike, perch, and trout employ specific terminal tackle to accommodate aggressive strikes and sharp teeth. Pike fishing takes power to the next level - wire traces prevent bite-offs, while size 6/0-8/0 treble hooks ensure secure hookups when targeting these apex predators. Large floats designed specifically for pike work signal take clear even at a distance.

Sea fishing anglers need terminal tackle that can handle harsh saltwater conditions and strong currents. Our range includes 4-8oz grip leads that hold position in surf, size 2/0-6/0 hooks built for saltwater species, and corrosion-resistant swivels that won’t fail when it matters most. Grip leads are best used when tackling fast-flowing rivers or steep-sided marginal slopes. Commercial fishery tactics benefit from pellet waggler floats and barbless hooks that allow quick unhooking and fish welfare. River fishing requires a more subtle approach with lighter leads, smaller hooks, and running rig setups that present baits naturally in flowing water.

Quality terminal tackle starts with the right materials, and we stock only products that meet our high standards. High-carbon steel hooks deliver exceptional sharpness and strength, maintaining their point through multiple catches while providing reliable penetration when fish take your bait. Barbed hooks are more secure in holding fish compared to barbless hooks. The best hooks undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure they perform when the pressure is on.

Lead construction varies depending on the application. Smooth coatings provide aerodynamic properties for long-range casting, while textured finishes offer excellent camouflage on the lake bed. Leads help the rig to sink quickly, which is essential for bottom-feeding fish. Our leads come in various shapes designed for specific fishing situations, from streamlined bombs for distance work to grip leads with wires that anchor in strong currents.

Fluorocarbon leaders have revolutionised terminal tackle with their near-invisible properties underwater and exceptional abrasion resistance against sharp stones or zebra mussels. A good quality leader can make the difference between a successful and disappointing angling session. Stainless steel swivels prevent corrosion in saltwater environments while maintaining smooth rotation that stops line twist. Tungsten putty allows precise rig balancing without adding unnecessary bulk, helping create perfectly presented baits that catch more fish.

Setting up effective terminal tackle for everyday fishing doesn’t need to be complicated. A basic running rig works perfectly for general coarse fishing. Simply thread your lead onto the main line, add a swivel to stop it sliding down, then attach a short hooklink with your chosen hook size. Swivels allow for the creation of custom rig setups. This versatile setup allows fish to take line without feeling resistance, dramatically improving your catch rate.

Float fishing requires careful balancing to create the perfect presentation. Start with a waggler float suitable for your fishing distance, lock it in place with split shot, then add more shot down the line to achieve proper shotting. Beads can be used in rigs to protect knots or add visual or sound attraction. The aim is to have just the float tip visible above water, creating sensitivity that shows the lightest bites. A simple hook to nylon completes this classic setup that has caught millions of fish.

Feeder fishing on commercial waters benefits from a straightforward approach using a method feeder or a cage feeder. The key is matching feeder weight to casting distance. Light feeders for close-in fishing, heavier options when you need to reach fish holding at a distance. Essential knots include the Palomar knot for hooks and the blood knot for joining lines of similar diameter. Organise your tackle box with separate compartments for different hook sizes, lead weights, and small accessories, such as swivels and split shot. Quick-change systems using snap links allow rapid tackle changes when fish preferences shift throughout the day.

Advanced specialist fishing demands sophisticated terminal tackle setups that give you the edge on challenging waters. Carp fishing has evolved dramatically, with rigs like the chod rig, hinged stiff rig, and German rig becoming standard weapons in the modern angler’s arsenal. These presentations reset themselves if disturbed and provide exceptional hooking mechanics that convert more takes into landed fish.

Pike fishing requires wire traces as essential safety equipment. These prevent bite-offs while maintaining bait presentation through snap tackles and float paternoster rigs. The key is balancing wire strength with flexibility, ensuring your setup can handle a pike’s razor-sharp teeth while allowing natural bait movement that triggers aggressive takes.

Specialist sea fishing rigs, such as pulley rigs and clipped-down rigs, enable extreme distance casting, which is essential for surf fishing success. These aerodynamic designs cut through headwinds and deliver baits to productive feeding areas beyond the reach of basic setups. PVA bag presentation revolutionises bait placement accuracy in carp fishing - dissolving bags deliver hookbait and attractors to the exact spot where fish are feeding.

Spod mix preparation and long-range baiting techniques allow you to establish feeding areas that draw fish from across large waters. Electronic bite indication systems integrate seamlessly with modern terminal tackle, providing instant notification of takes even at extreme range.
