Pallatrax news release
Welcome to the first in a series of monthly newsletters from Devon based Pallatrax. Each month will bring catch reports, offers and behind the scenes news for readers to give some insights into the company renowned for the Stonze weights and a host of other innovative bait creations.
The latest release this week may interest the catfish anglers; ‘CatChunx’ have been developed after listening to catfish anglers and fishery owners to produce specialist 25mm pre-oiled pellets in two different flavours.

All rigs incorporate an 80lbs breaking strain swivel to ensure the biggest moggy hits the net. Available in size 2 barbed and size 2 & 4 barbless, the rigs retail at £2.25 each.
