Last week we could join Mario from Dreambaits to the Carp Elite show in Austria, on the way back we stopped at the Flanx warehouse in Germany, meeting our good friend Maurice and picking up some high quality Flanx mats, sleeping bags and rods to show and sell at the VBK show this weekend.  Mario himself also has some Dreambaits deals at the show, and will be giving a proper slideshow as well.  Be there!  

As you will know we've had some major delays on the MC x SignalWood handmade Scaly Baby bobbins in the last months. Normally that would've been no problem, but we had done a preorder and lots of you were eagerly waiting for their set(s) to turn up.  Two weeks ago we received our first batch from SignalWood and last weekend we've received more, just enough to send out all preorders except one now.  We have a few sets of dark ones left now, some more from order should come in including some whites and that's it forever!  The dark ones...

This Friday and Saturday you can find Monkey Climber at the Carp Master Days over at the Carp Elite tackle shop in Pinkafeld, Austria.  There's going to be numerous faces of the (inter)national scene including Alan Blair, Claire & Samir,... so come down for a carpy chat and a good time. We'll bring a selection of the newest Monkey Climber stuff, of course we cannot bring the full range, and for our friends from Forgotten Flavours & SignalWood we'll bring their newest Zirben pop up collab with us.  There's also a very good chance we'll be having the remaining stock...
