Description

Gardner Bait Floss has a flat profile and virtually zero stretch.

This combination of characteristics is essential in a good bait floss, as it ensures that the floss grips onto smooth and hard air-dried hook baits and doesn’t ‘give’ on impact. If the floss is stretchy it could otherwise allow the meticulously prepared, rolled and dried perfectly spherical hook bait to pop out of the loop!

The wax coating on the floss allows anglers smooth knotting and helps ‘blobbing’ of the trimmed knot ends. This burning back of the tags also seals the knot and again this helps to keep the hook bait securely in position, so you can be confident that this critical aspect your presentation is perfect.

Gently heat the floss, by licking the edge of a flame around it, after you have tied on your hook bait (try to do this without burning the pop up!). This makes the floss slightly transparent and shrinks the material, securing the loop in place.

Supplied on a 50m spool.

Korda - Wide Gape Hooks

£5.50

The Wide Gape hook has become a true design classic, and has accounted for more big carp than any other pattern. It was based on the cult Maruta Kinryu pattern that found favour with the likes of Terry Hearn in the 1990s. The five-degree in-turned eye, short shank, heavily forged bend and beaked point combine to give anglers a hooked-to-landed ratio far in excess of anything else that's achievable. It can be used for pop-up and bottom-bait presentations and is the hook to opt for when fishing for the very biggest and trickiest carp around.

Korda - Sinkers

£3.75

A compact tungsten-rubber weight, designed to slide onto your hook link and pin it to the lake bed. Moistening the hooklength will allow the Sinkers to slide along the hook link much easier. The great thing about a Sinker is that it stays in position, rather than flying off on the cast like putty can. Available in Safezone colours to camouflage into the lake bed and two separate sizes.

Korda - Medium Hook Beads

£3.50

Tiny translucent rubber beads that slide perfectly on to all of Korda's hook patterns, they are used to create a number of effective rig presentations securely. They are shaped to allow rig rings to sit up against them without getting caught or preventing them from moving smoothly.

Avid Carp - Ringed Hookbait Swivels

£3.30

These Ringed Hookbait Swivels are ideal for a whole host of rig presentations. The ring is ideal for mounting on hook shanks to create free movement and flexibility.
