QUICK® MAD® 5500 FS We introduce the brandnew Quick® MAD® 5500 free spool reel in Realtree® AP™ camouflage design, which is a great addition to the extremely popular big pit MAD® 7000 FS. Thanks to the use of duraluminium we have achieved designing a free spool reel that is very compact, ultralight weight, and has minimum tolerances. Still it offers superb free spool capabilities and an unmatched fighting drag. The patented OOS system provides a superb line lay under all conditions and the drag as well as the Free Spool function is micro adjustable. We have used the latest in lamination technoligies that has resulted in a fantastic sharp 3D appearance of the most popular Realtree® AP™ camouflage pattern.

QUICK® MAD® 7000 FS This extraordinary free spool reel is the fine result of combining the characteristics of the legendary top brand Quick® and the young innovative carp brand MAD®! D.A.M. was the first ever that introduced a fishing tackle product with camou colour, which makes us a pioneer on this level also! In the beginning of the 1990’s DAM introduced the Quick® Camou reel. Considering this, the Quick® MAD® 7000 FS is the perfect sequel on the Camou success story! The new Realtree® AP® HD™ camouflage lamination technique gives the reel a fantastic appearance that will let the hearts of many carp anglers beat faster. Technically, the Quick® MAD® 7000 FS uses the rewarded expertise, patents and knowledge of D.A.M., and thus offers everything a carp angler demands of a carp reel.

INTEGRATED FREESPOOL SYSTEM

QUICK® MAD® FSX Built to last & built to cast – these are the two major principles of our Quick® MAD® FSX!

102,6 CM

With a body made of high grade feather weight aluminium, an extra wide graphite rotor and a superior long worm shaft stroke, this reel is perfectly designed for long distance casting. Moreover the reel is equipped with a new and extremely effective system that reliably prevents the ﬁshing line from turning underneath the spool. The Quick® MAD® FSX is “The Reel” for carp freaks. As a totally new and unique innovation, the Free Spool function is integrated in the spool itself, can be preset in 11 rest positions and can be activated / deactivated by a half turn of the drag knob. The main drag force can also be pre-selected and the whole spool can be changed within seconds by a simple push button system and with a line capacity of 500 m / 0,35 mm any spot can easily be reached.

RODS

RETRO IS FASHION! Many continental carp anglers start following the trend of wanting to go back to ﬁshing with lighter carp rods that are equipped with a full cork handle. Therefore we have developed two fantastic carp rods with an ultra light blank and super slim cork handle. Moreover, we have equipped the Oldskool rods with special US-designed ALPS lightweight aluminium reel seats. The Oldskool rods are available in two carefully selected test curve ranges: a light one that has a test curve of in between 2 and 2,5 lbs, and a heavier version that lies in between 2,5 to 3 lbs. As nowadays all expensive handbuilt English rods, we have equipped the lighter version with one more guide on the handle part that helps the guideing the line extremely smooth so that the entire parabolic action of the rod can be used.

MAD VANGUARD II Next to the legendary D-Fender rods is the Vanguard the best sold carp rod series in the MAD range. The brand new Vanguard II rods are again a technical highlight and a real treat for the eye. The rods are based on a robust light blank with the typical progressive parabolic action which means that the power building up as the pressure on the rod is increased. This makes ﬁghting ﬁsh of any size a great sport! The full Duplon handle part makes the rods look extremely cool and makes them a dream to handle.

How to improve something that already is near to perfect? This question we asked ourselves when starting to develop a brand new successor for our most popular MAD® rod series D-FENDER. This name has established itself in the market and has become wellknown as a premium carp rod for a fair price. The most important improvements we achieved, was reducing the blank diameter signiﬁcantly and giving it an extremely fast action for rods in this price range. Next to that we gave it an even more exclusive appearance with a moulded line clip, woven carbon reel seat spacer and smart looking japanese shrink wrapping around the handle. Also the artwork of the rods has been kept to the absolute minimum, with the small D-FENDER2 logo positioned on the side of the rear grip part! They have been manaufactured out of robust TC 24 D carbon and equipped with oversized slim inlay SIC-guides that are well suitable for braided lines. The D-FENDER2 rods are all light and thin carp rods with enough backbone to ﬁght any size carp and for extreme distance casting.

MAD D-FENDER II UK Following great demand from especially our carp angling friends from Austria and Eastern Europe, you have taken our D-Fender II UK rod version into our continental standard range! These rods share the same great characteristics that the D-Fender II rods have, with on big difference: guide size and setting. The UK version of the MAD D-Fender rods has only 6 guides, and they are starting with a size 50. This positively inﬂuences the casting abilities of the rods. So, if you have always been a fan of English rods, then the D-Fender II UK is deﬁnitely worth checking out!

MAD D-FENDER II – TELE CARP Many travelling carp anglers have contacted us during the last years with the question why we do not offer a telescopic version of our extremely popular D-Fender II rods. The main reason was that it is very difﬁcult to satisfy the MAD team in terms of action, thickness of the blank, and appearance. Most telescopic rods are very thick and have an inferior action in comparison with 2 piece rods. Finally we have managed to create a telescopic version of our D-Fender II rods that have a unique fast action that comes very close to the 2-piece version, and that have a nice slim blank that makes them look extremely good.

LANDING NET This is a typical MAD® product! Years of experience, close contact with fellow carp cracks, and the outstanding engineering background of D.A.M. result in products that make the life of us carp anglers much easier. The Medusa landing net has a built-in light function with 4 long life LEDs in its stable ABS-graphite head with soft touch rubber paint surface! This way you can always precisely illuminate the area just in front of the net – even when you forgot to put on the head lamp! The big challenge was to make the spreader block waterproof. Even though this will never be the case in practice, we have tested the head under water for periods that lasted over two hours! The ultra light carbon handle part is also divided into two parts of 90 cm like our existing landing nets and has the same great ﬁnish as the popular Medusa rods.

READY TIED CARP RIGS All MAD® Ready Tied Carp Rigs are hand-made with the greatest care and using the highest quality standards. This makes them just as good and most of the time even better then self-made rigs! With their speciﬁc features MAD® offers tactical specialist rigs for any situation and suitable for any kind of bait.

LINE ALIGNER RIG The good old Line Aligner rig offers you the perfect “turning” of the hook to ensure optimal penetration in the carp’s hard lower lip. This turning is achieved by the small piece of shrink tube where the braided is stuck through on the side of the hook point.

AMBUSH D-RIG This pop-up rig is tied using the Longshank hook and our MAD® Ambush ﬂuorocarbon that is nearly invisible under water. With it’s approximately 13 cm length it is a high tactics rig that gives the carp little room to move or blow the boilie out. The pop-up is tied to the small rig ring easily with some dental ﬂoss. The loop with which the rig is tied to the swivel makes sure the hook can turn freely to ensure optimal penetration!

ALL TACTIX RIG This rig is suitable for any possible water and gives you the opportunity to choose if you want to use a swivel or the MAD® Quick® Swap system. The swivels are namely offered separately in the package and the rigs are equipped with a secure loop. A great rig for particle ﬁshing!

OBSTACLE RIG Using the Backbone hook in combination with 25 lb ImmiX fast sinking braided hooklink, this is a super strong and reliable rig for extreme conditions! Great in combination with braided mainline and in waters with many obstacles.

WHITY POOL RIG According to many people this is the ultimate rig for ﬁshing with pop-ups! Therefore it couldn’t obviously be missing from our program. The extremely bended shrink tube positions the pop-up perfectly above the bottom. The extra piece of braided line that comes out of the shrink tube is for putting on a split shot (so not directly on the hooklink!) We have to “overload” this WHITY POOL RIG – which means using a heavy split shot so that the hook 1 2 4 6 Hook-size 15 cm 15 cm 15 cm 15 cm Length will turn downwards perfectly when the carp takes it and 25 lbs 25 lbs 25 lbs 25 lbs Breaking strain stretches the hooklink.

ANTI-BLOWOUT RIG This rig is one of the favourites of the MAD® carp team because of the numerous possibilities it offers. The rig is made using MystiX subtle hooklink material and the Gripper hook and is fantastic for waters where the clever carp tend to blow out the baits over and over again. The special way with which the hair is attached to the shank of the hook with a movable 2 mm piece of MAD® Rig Tube Rig Tube, makes the hook always leave ANTI-BLOWOUT RIG 1 2 4 6 Hook-size the carp’s mouth behind the boilie.

COMBI RIG The MAD® Combi Rig is a killer on high pressured waters. Thanks to using the superb IncogniX coated hooklink, we have been able to combine stiff and subtle material without having an irritating knot or ring in between. The combi-rig offers you a tactical advantage on all waters and makes you ﬁshing on the edge! Also available as a pop-up version!

LEADSHOT RIG Here a lead shot is clamped onto a short piece of braided line positioned on the outside of the hook bend. This extra weight makes the hook stay low in the mouth of the carp. This way the hook will be almost always ﬁxed in the lower lip. Slightly bent shrink tube over the hook helps again for instant hooking.

CARP HOOKS

TIP

MAD® Carp Hooks are carefully selected types of razor sharp specialist hooks designed for any possible situation. The special non-reﬂective and extra strong Japanese steel makes MAD® Carp Hooks 100 % reliable and always ultra sharp. These hooks just cannot fail from today’s carp anglers tackle box!

GRIPPER HOOK

LONGSHANK HOOK

The MAD Gripper has a perfectly bended shaped shank that gives it unique anti-eject features and makes it an excellent hook for pop-up ﬁshing and anti-blow out rigs! Almost every carp that was landed during the test period had the hook positioned exactly in the lower lip which is the hardest part of the mouth. The Gripper is suitable for any kind of water, but works especially well on high pressured ones.

Like the name already suggests this hook has an extra long shank. The smooth straight point and the slightly inwards bent eye give the hook optimal penetration features. This topper is great for pop-up ﬁshing with D-rigs and outstanding for ﬁshing with a so called “Snowman”!

MAD® Guardian Camouﬂage Carp line is being delivered in a unique designed airtight PET container that keeps the line in optimal state until it is on your reels! This container holds a very innovative feature that we call the CPL System. This stands for Contra Pressure Line-winding System. Thanks to 2 clever suction cups, the line container can be ﬁxed to a stable surface after which the inner spool system enables you to spool the line onto your reels under the perfect amount of pressure! This is how it works: Step 1 Using the suction cups on the bottom of the box, place the box on a smooth surface.

Step 2 Run the line through the rod guides, attach line to reel spool and wind on the line.

Gone are the days of putting a pencil through the spool and burning your ﬁngers while holding it!

Name SOLUTION PVA MESH NARROW REFILL SOLUTION PVA MESH WIDE REFILL

MAD® SOLUTION PVA SOLID TUBE

First you put some groundbait, boilie crumb, or some liquid dip inside the solid tube. Then you put your entire rig and lead system inside, after which you blow the bag up before tying the knot. Now you have a PVA balloon with your lead and hookbait - together with some bait – inside. Now, when you are fishing at spots with a lot of algen, weeds, silk, etc., using this system will get your system down very slowly and prevents the lead from diving into the bottom. The PVA balloon will sink very slowly and float on top of the dirt until it dissolves. As a result, your bait and rig will be placed neatly on top! Let the big fish come!

SOLUTION PVA REFILL 8404 303

 High quality PVA (PolyVinylAlcohol) with an optimal dissolving rate  Extra strong for long distance casting  Ladder-free mesh for effective use

No more ﬁguring out which size PVA bag you should buy, because with this clever solid PVA tube you can decide the size of each bag yourself! Next to that, this product opens a completely new range of carp angling possibilities. We call it the balloon system!

MAD® Solution PVA mesh is excellent for tactical bait presentation on high pressured waters. The narrow mesh is great for making ground and swim bait “sausages”, where the wide mesh is perfect for using as bag for (parts of) boilies and pellets. It is delivered on a PVC tube for easy ﬁlling and storing.

MAD® GUARDIAN MESH Guardian Mesh is an incredible innovative product that will open up numerous new fishing possibilities for you! The principle is not new and inspired by both saltwater and sturgeon fishing. While fishing for white sturgeon, the Canadians use women stockings and fill them up with salmon eggs to create attractive hookbait balls. This enables them to fish the best sturgeon bait that unfortunately is not hookable – directly on the hook. Based on this, we developed Guardian Mesh which is no PVA but a very fine mono mesh, and it will therefore not dissolve under water. It is being delivered like PVA mesh on a tube, which enables you to fill it with any possible kind of bait at any size you like. This means that you can use an incredible amount of new succesful baits that you normally would not have been able to put on the hair or hook! You could make tiny balls of hemp, seed mixes, pellets, but also tunefish, mussel meat, little shrimp, luncheon meat and even fish eggs. These tiny balls of bait can be easily rigged on a hair just like a boilie! If you are a saltwater angler – think of the possibilities this product has for you! Securing squid meat, mussel meat, or delicate fish on the hook so that it won’t come off during a long cast! Guardian Mesh has also a second big advantage and that is offering a protecting layer around the hookbait to “guard” it from little creatures like poisson chat, crayfish, or any kind of unwanted guest that destroyes your possibilities!

Thanks to the clever opening on the side, the lead is removable from the line when keeping the rods in the holdall. This prevents them from getting damaged during transport.

The MAD® Transformer Barrow is equipped with a big tractor-like wheel with the enormous diameter of 45 cm and a dirt-buster profile of 12 mm high! Although we kept the basic design of the frame the same as the legendary Car-Go, we used reinforced steel to make it even stronger than it already was! Moreover, we added the innovative and unique Quick®transformer feature, which enables you to fold the barrow flat by just pushing the front bar forward with your foot! This way it can also be turned into a flat barrow with the wheel positioned on the front, which enables you to manoeuvre a lot easier and quicker in times when you don’t have so much luggage with you.

SPACE® DOME To make the MAD® carp program more complete, we have created a nice compact range of 3 extremely high quality tents. One of them is brand new MAD® Space® Dome which has been especially designed for those anglers that only want the very best! The “cocoon” like inner tent has a ﬁxed PVC groundsheet and can be hung into the outer shell with an intelligent ﬁxation system. It creates a double skin bivvy where the air in between the layers isolates. During the test period we have all been astonished about how extremely rock solid this tent is, which makes it the perfect bivvy for longer sessions! Weight: 15,5 kg. Transport dimensions: 40 x 25 x 120 cm.

FEATURES:  Manufactured using high grade Hydro-TEC* material  Double taped seams  Waterproofness of 10.000 mm!  Breathability of 3000 g/m2!  Anti-slip moulded MAD® zipper pullers and YKK zippers  Non-glare metal parts  Reinforced aluminium ribs with matt black colour  Double skin “cocoon” technique for superb isolation

The revolutionary lightweight HydroTEC material is all-weather proof, 100 % waterproof and extremely breathable. Unlike so many other cheaper fabrics that are available on the market today, Hydro-TEC’s unique characteristics make it almost independent for rough conditions as warmth, frost, and rain. In other words it will stay tight, will not absorb water, and doesn’t expand or shrink!

 All weather design  4 stabilizer bars for extra stability  Intelligent grip system for aligned stabilizer placement  Delivered with 12 heavy duty bivvy pegs  Optional tough heavy duty groundsheet (Art.

VERTIGO DOME To make life at the banks easier for our fellow carp friends, we have designed this monster tent called MAD® Vertigo! Our main goal was to create a carp bivvy that is high enough for an average angler to stand in upright, so that it is the perfect companion for long comfortable sessions. With a maximum height of just under 2,00 meters it is a real giant amongst carp tents. Its dimensions make it extremely easy to enter which is especially a big advantage when it is raining. Next to that it makes it very light to stand up inside, that is great for changing your clothes. Thanks to its massive size, it offers more than enough room for 2 anglers and all their equipment they want to keep inside. Just as an example, you can put 2 MAD® Guardian Bedchairs in it together with 2 MAD® Specialist Pro chairs to make it very comfortable for two people to enjoy their ﬁshing when the weather is not playing along! The tent is equipped with a detachable heavy duty ground sheet and there is an optional overwrap available too! On top of that of course, the Vertigo dome has the high quality features and ﬁnish that MAD® is known for. Weight: 19 kg. Art.-No. 8496 005

BAITS

SOFT HOOKERS Soft Hooker pellets are the biggest revolutionary trend in carp and specimen fishing of the past years. Like most of the trends in carp fishing, this one also started in the UK where feeding with small fish meal pellets while fishing for carp, tench, barbell, trout and big bream brought many successes. Because of the hard structure of pellets, people have been forced to fish over the feeder pellets with maggots or sweet corn. Then somebody figured out how to make pellets with the same shape and taste, but with a soft rubber-like structure that can be fished directly on the hook! Because this is an absolute fantastic and successful way of fishing, we have now also developed a great soft hooker pellet range under the popular MAD® Baits brand. The pellets are extremely stable on the hook and have a very high attraction on the fish. They can be used for all types of fish and fishing, no matter if you fish with the feeder, picker, a float, or the method way.

MAD CSI – WIRELESS BITE ALARM This new wireless set is a great addition to the already very extensive bite alarm range of MAD. CSi stands for Compact System Indicator that points out that we aimed to keep the design of the indicators as compact as possible. First of all, we have kept all the various functions on a “need-to-have” basis like we did with the extremely successful Scream alarms. Again we concentrated on getting excellent wireless functions and long range receiving capabilities by cancelling all electronics that could cause signal interruption. Second, by a very innovative way of positioning the magnetic indication wheel we have managed to get the size of the alarm down even further while at the same time keeping enough room for a 9V block battery! The front position of the wheel also massively improves the stability of the rod on the indictor as well as the line guidance. The MAD CSi wireless bite alarm set ﬁts outstanding in the latest “less is more” trend in carp ﬁshing, where all the gear needs to be as compact, light and subtle as possible. The unique feature of the magnetic wheel position again shows the MAD® team’s constant efforts to be one step ahead and innovative. On top of all the previous, the CSi indictors can be paired with the amazing FSX Intelligent Tent Light! The MAD® CSi bite indicators operate on a 9 V battery and the Receiver on 3 x AAA 1,5 V batteries (Batteries not included!)

FSX INTELLIGENT TENT LAMP Another cool MAD® idea! At first glance this looks like an ordinary tent light, but it actually is a bivvy lamp and bite alarm receiver in one! Next to a set of 6 ultra-bright long-life LEDs, there is an adjust-able multicolor LED placed in the center. When using our brand new MAD® FSX alarms, the 6 LEDs switch on automatically whenever the alarm is activated by a biting fish! This is not all… the multi-color LED in the middle also lights up and corresponds with the color of the bite alarm that has just been activated. This way, your tent is illuminated when you have to go out and fight the fish. This saves you time when searching for your shoes and opening the tent. On top of that, the light is also indicating which one of the rods is having a fish on! To increase the battery lifetime, the light switches off automatically. The brightness of the LEDs, as well as the time that the light is on after a bite, can be set on the unit. The lamp operates on 3 x 1,5 AA batteries (not included).

MAD® CAT RODS Our new MAD® CAT rod series is a compact but complete program that suits all 4 “standard” ways of fishing for catfish. These 4 ways of angling are spinning, boat, klong, and long distance bottom fishing. Manufactured out of tough TC 30 N carbon that is combined with thermoplastic components, the rods are ready to face the most extreme conditions! Their unmatched power partly comes from the thermoplastic components that absorb sudden waves of pressure, so that the carbon construction is protected from pressure overload!

• TC 30 N Carbon • Partly integrate • Robust anodized d SIC-security guid aluminium reel se es at • Optimally sh aped and positione d grip parts M58

TIP

Try these combinatio rods in QUICK ® M n with our aster reel!

MAD® CAT BOAT This rod is a real workhorse! With a casting weight of 180 – 360 g and a length of only 2.45 m, it is suitable for both reels and multi reels. The great number of guides makes sure that the pressure is dividing equally over the blank and the additional front grip part enables you to use maximum power during the ﬁght. During the testing phase, a very good friend from Canada even successfully used it on Halibut in Vancouver Island and for Sturgeon in Fraser River!

MAD® CAT GHOST KLONG RIG The MAD® CAT Ghost Klong rig is a complete novelty for this kind of fishing! This very effective system is developed by one of our local test anglers – and together with him we even improved it further. This rig is the secret weapon when the catfish are lazy, not hungry, or simply because they are trained not to take the regular klong system anymore to avoid being caught. The rig is 100 cm long and consists of 0,90 mm high abrasion resistant fluorocarbon with a breaking strength of 45 kg! In comparison with conventional rig material it is practically not visible for the fish! On the upper single hook you rig some fat worms. Approximately 2 cm underneath the hook a double rattle is placed that gives the system acoustic attraction. Then, two octopus skirts are rigged towards each other on an inline lead, leaving the “arms” free to pulse in the water. Finally, a treble is placed on the end of the rig to finish it off. So why does it catch more fish?     

The nearly invisible ﬂuorocarbon material Acoustic attraction thanks to the double rattle The visually attractive pulsing of the octopus skirts The integrated lead that always keeps the rig vertically positioned The last treble that tricks also the ﬁsh that only want to nibble out of curiosity!

The test curve is set up by horizontally fixing the handle section and then weighting the tip of the rod until it bents down in a 90 degrees angle. The statement of the accordingly necessary weight thereby traditionally is made in English pounds, shortend lbs, which is equal to 454,4 g and which consists of 16 ounces of 28,4 g each. The transformation from the lbs test curve to the ideal casting weight in gram is made by multiplying the test curve by the weight of 1 ounce = 28,4 g. The effective casting weight range at lighter rods is then settled at approx. +/- 10 % of the ideal casting weight and at heavier rods it then ranges up to approx. +/- 15 %.

- Up to a test curve of 3,50 lbs usually only monofilament lines are used. - Rods from 4,00 – 5,00 lbs are then also frequently used as spod rods for precisely casting heavy feeder baskets and rockets. Due to these heavy loads sometimes tapered surf lines or braided lines are being used. Braided lines are also frequently used for predator fishing with such rods. - From 6,00 lbs on such rods are exclusively used as catfish rods with a standard of braided lines. Attention: This way of transferring a lbs test curve into a gram casting weight is only suitable for freshwater rods!
