Welcome to Catfish-Pro, the Uk's leading supplier of Catfishing tackle, bait and accessories
(30)

My name is Simon Clarke and I have created Catfish-Pro, to provide quality catfishing tackle to all anglers. I have been fishing for catfish in the UK and across Europe for the last 20 years. I have, in co-operation with other cat anglers, sourced, designed and assembled a range of top quality tackle, previously only with limited availability through the Catfish Conservation Group. Catfishing is o

ne of the fastest growing areas of UK angling, with now over 250 fisheries in the UK containing cats, as well as a wide variety of holiday destinations in France, Spain and beyond where you can tangle with some real monsters. Catfish are probably the hardest fighting fish you will hook, and to land them you’ll need the best tackle. Catfish-Pro products will set you up with the best chance of hooking and landing your first, bigger and best catfish!

Check out this catch report from Alan Owen!! Two UK ton ups in one session? Alan completed it - the biggest going 128 pounds! Both landed on the BP Pellet hooks, Catlink XT and the mighty squidders was the winning bait, we wonder just how many UK ton ups have now fallen to them? 🤔

We also spot the Catpro scales and water bucket - gotta keep those cats wet and well looked after!! Bravo Alan, what a result, huge congratulations and thanks for the catch report ❤️

Well here we go again… reigning UK Catfish Angler of the year, captor of a cat larger than the current record, Catpro consultant and team manager and generally all around nice bloke and he’s done it yet again!!

Another capture, another monster and another tough battle that shows just why Catpro hooks are the best on the market! Tough battles on extremely w**dy venues with some of the largest UK cats EVER landed and Simon wouldn’t be without the trusty Catfish Pro barbless circle hooks!

In his own words - “Catfish pro circles don’t bend or snap and have accounted for a lot of big fish for me and many other anglers, I have total faith in the 4/0 circles and this latest capture proves why , despite having to get the fish back through two thick Canadian pond w**d beds at range, applying huge pressure the hook stayed firm same as it always does!”

For the record this absolute unit weighed in at a mighty 128:08!! Damn 😳

There’s a lot of stupidity and misinformation out there on social media,
Anglers with all of the experience of a toddlers socks reviewing tackle they don’t even know how to use, new companies releasing a new, untested product and claiming it the best thing since sliced bread - if you want to know your tackle is the best then stick with the original catfish tackle company, all of our tackle has accounted for thousands upon thousands of fish from anglers all over the country, we really have stood the test of time - don’t risk your PB’s on stupid claims and even more stupid reviews from anglers with less than half a clue. Stick to tried and tested over decades!!

Successful tactic was Leeches on the Catpro tipper rig, 80 pound hooligan toughlink, 4/0 barbless circles and rig rattles.

Huge well done to Jess on an awesome capture ❤️❤️

What a result for consultant and team manager Chris - this fish was presumed by many to be dead or stolen, it picked up a very nasty injury two years ago and hasn’t been seen on the bank since until now! Big Adam from the awesome Fishable At houchins has clearly been laying up, healing and eating whatever comes close enough that he can eat without moving, he’s dropped thirteen pounds over the two years battling to heal but is clearly now back and ready to start packing on some weight! Awesome for the fishery and awesome capture for Chris ❤️

30/07/2024

Catfish Pro consultant and team manager Simon Poole who is also the current UK cat angler of the year and captor of the the UK’s largest catfish will be on hand this upcoming Saturday for Catfish Pro at the CCG Northern meet at Devine fisheries!

Team member Jason Walters had some buckets to deliver to Churchwood fisheries and took the opportunity to do a little fishing!

He landed a stupid amount of fish to the point that he lost count - all caught on the mighty squidders wrapped in moggie muncher paste on 4/0 barbless circles and hooligan hook link ❤️

Who makes a four piece travel rod?

Who makes a 10’6” 5 pound test curve rod that fits in an XL suitcase and is suitable for fishing from bank, boat or beach all over the world?

Who makes a travel rod to the highest of specifications with Japanese shrink wrap handle, Fuji reel seat and Fuji eyes?

Who makes a travel rod that comes in a hard case measuring just 95cm long designed to keep your rod safe and secure?

I think you all know the answer!

Made using the same blank as our pro persuaders - this is without a doubt one of the products that we are proudest of, an absolutely Amazing piece of kit that has caught fish across the globe!

Everybody should have a travel kit that can handle the biggest fish and double as an extra rod on the bank in the UK when you need one - so what are you waiting for?

A live take on our open day last Monday! Not a monster by any means but it had perfect timing and was very welcome!

The summer is here, the temperatures rising so there has never been a better time for a friendly reminder!

We are giving this a share again and will probably do so several times this year… the traditional cat season is only just upon us and already we have seen several catch photos with cats on dry mats, in dry slings etc. yes cats are tough as old boots but there is no excuse not to do absolutely everything in your power to put them back, fighting fit and in good health as they were when you landed them! The lakes and rivers we fish just so happen to be full of water - there isn’t a shortage so there really is no excuse! Fill those buckets, soak everything and make sure you keep the water coming throughout the entire weighing, photographing process!!

Chris showing us how his swim is set from the very start of a session! Be prepared and everything becomes safer and easier!!

Chris Bury showing how he sets his swim up at the start of every session… this time round it sat untouched for a 3 day blankety blank, but not being prepared is the main problem we see causing damage to fish or having them out of the water for far too long! Buy the right gear and actually use it, being prepared for all eventualities is key!
