Our story
Built by carp anglers, for carp anglers.
Bivvy & Bait Carp Tackle started in Sofia with two lifelong carp anglers who were tired of shops pushing whatever had the loudest packaging. We built this store around proven kit: rods that cast properly, reels with reliable drag, bait we would feed ourselves and camp gear that survives real weather.
Field-tested
Before it makes the shelf.
Products are tested on overnight sessions, big public waters and smaller pressured lakes. We look for durability, usability in the dark, honest performance and value. If a product cannot earn a place in our own bivvy, it does not get recommended here.
The anglers
Two people. Straight advice.
Nikolay “Niki” Stanev
Rods, reels and distance work. Obsessed with line lay, casting accuracy and clean indication.
Peter Kolev
Bait, rigs and long-session camp gear. Keeps the test kit muddy and the advice straight.
