Gardner Tackle

Accurate baiting is an absolutely critical aspect of all carp and coarse fishing, and the most widely used tool by anglers for firing baits to the chosen spot is often the humble catapult. They are unquestionably the fastest and simplest means of doing this.

The new Slinga catapults are based on an extremely strong frame and use reliable, high performance latex elastics, with a choice of three tailor-made pouches to suit specific baits and baiting scenarios.
The Boilie pouch has been designed for accurately firing small tight groups of bait, and for firing out boilies at maximum ‘pult range.

The Particle pouch is perfect for firing out larger quantities of any bait when creating a bed of bait, ranging from large volumes of small particles like hempseed, all the way through to large boilies when you want to create a banquet fit for a king carp.

The Ground bait pouch incorporates a reinforced cup, stopping the pouch from crushing and cracking the ground bait ball. It’s strong enough to easily cope with the demands of firing ground bait balls to distant marks.

‘Hi-grip’ non-slip, rubber hand grip.
Extremely strong, yet lightweight reinforced composite moulded frame.
Choice of 3 pouches – Boilie, Particle and Ground bait (also available separately).
All pouches feature reinforced eyelets, embedded in a double layer vinyl material for extra strength.
High strength latex elastics with non-slip grip to securely retain elastics in place so they will not slip even after repeated use when firing baits out to absolute maximum range.
Height = 22.5cm, Width = 18cm (between arms).
Colour: Black.

A great stick for all general long range baiting.

The Skorpion throwing sticks have been designed to afford the boilie angler the absolute highest performance possible in terms of accuracy, range and power. In testing these sticks consistently out performed all others in every way!
Suitable for boilies up to 22mm in diameter.
With practice, and a hard bait, boilies can easily be hurled over 100m.
Made from the finest grade PVC for an extremely light weight yet maintaining remarkable strength and durability.

Heat resistant - Skorpions will not warp, melt or break in hot conditions, or any conditions!
All Skorpion Stiks feature a 'Swan Neck Shaft' designed to accelerate the bait to a faster velocity than standard straight shaft throwing sticks (by kicking the boilie back at the start of the swing, this increases the centrifugal force generated and gives the bait more speed at the end of the swing).

Modified exit channel gives maximum stability and pin point accuracy.
Non slip, soft touch, double handed grip designed to suit hands of all sizes.

Made in the UK.
Length = 79cm
