Pinched a few of the new Trident Kickers from a mate, and had a play to see what their like.

I do like the simple design with no moving parts. They seem very strong, and while being pretty small will take a large hook.

You do however need to add a clip.... An extra component... Not sure on that for mixed ground, but at least the leads don't fall off like they can with the solo!

With the hook not being locked in, big baits can come adrift the same as an imp, if the lead is not big enough, but I found they worked well overall in the few hours I tried them fishing at range with squid baits.

I shall definitely get a few once they have stock.... Hope that helps someone thinking of trying them ?

Cheers si

I had 5/0 BMX from Veals on the rigs.... They easily went in.... I think my mate said 8/0 BMX went in as well.... I'll post some pics with bigger hook in.... Hopefully tomorrow. ?
 
So where do they sell them ? Have looked on their website https://www.tridenttackleshop.com/
& the other site they list.
Couldn't find them on either site by looking & using the search bar.
So is it going to be Facebook which is no good to me as not on it.

Not released yet, still in trial I think?
 
Thanks for that, just keep hearing about them. So will stick with bait shields & imps,although have not had any problems with the Gemini solos
I think as @Thrasher said, they have released a few to select outlets for testing, but not put them on sale online yet.
