Korda Dark Matter Ultra Heavy Tungsten Putty
Dark Matter Putty contains tungsten and is very heavy for its size, making it the ideal choice of rig putty for pretty much anything relating to adding weight to your rigs.
The non-toxic putty is incredibly malleable, even straight out of the tin which it comes in, and means that it can easily be moulded around micro swivels or a knot, such as when balancing a pop-up rig.
It can also be added to one of our Sinkers to give it more weight, or to the end of our fused leaders or tubing to make doubly sure that it is pinned down to the bottom.
It will stay in place during the cast, and comes in a choice of Weed Green or Gravel Brown, so that you can match it to the type of bottom you are fishing over, as well as your other rig components. Each tin contains 25g of Dark Matter Putty. Key features

Korda Subline 1000m Mono
This has been designed so that it is incredibly fast sinking and more akin to a fluorocarbon in that respect, but as it is a monofilament it still retains the attributes that can make it superior to a fluorocarbon in some angling situations.
Not only is it heavy but it is also very supple, which makes it great for slack line fishing as it will literally hang down limply from your rod tip and lay over the contours of whatever is between you and your hook bait.
In addition to that, it still casts incredibly well – far better than a fluorocarbon can – and is highly abrasion resistant, as well as having good knot strength.Key features
Incredibly fast sinking monofilament main line
Heavy and very supple
Tough, strong and casts well
Korda Kamakura Wide Gape X Hooks
The Kamakura sharpening process produces a hook point which is every bit as good as a hand-sharpened hook, but without you having to spend all the time and effort involved in doing it yourself – you can be confident that these hooks are perfect every time, straight out of the box.
The Kamakura Wide Gape X is a stepped-up version of this classic pattern, with thicker gauge wire, but featuring a much sharper, finer point than the standard ‘X’ hook – it is likely that you will need to change your hook after every fish you catch, due to the points being so delicate.
It features a slightly in-turned eye, with a short shank, heavily forged bend, and a beaked point. It can be used with a wide variety of different pop-up and bottom bait presentations, and once it goes in it tends to stay in.
The points are protected by a blob of wax which needs to be carefully removed before use, and they come supplied in a box which holds each individual hook securely in place – you get ten hooks in each box.
Key features
Based on the original Wide Gape
Incredibly sharp beaked point
Point protected by wax
Micro Barbed only
Korda QC Hybrid Lead Clip
This is a quick change version of our original Hybrid Lead Clip, and allows you to quickly and easily change hook, simply by clipping on a new one, as long as it has a loop tied in the end of it.
The Hybrid Lead Clip QC has been designed so that it will eject the lead if it gets stuck in weed or snags, and so that it can also be used in conjunction with leader materials such as leadcore, which form too bulky a knot to work with our normal Lead Clips.
The clip features an integrally moulded QC Swivel, with a metal loop at the other end of it, which your main line or leader is tied to.
Because the swivel can’t pull free from the housing, it works whenever the lead needs to be ejected.
The streamlined, one-piece design means there are no fiddly locking pegs or hinges to worry about - just connect the leader to one end and the rig to the other!
The uprated arm allows leads up to 5oz to be cast safely even at extreme range and the clip is available in Weed/Silt or Gravel/Clay, with eight in a packet.Key features

Korda N-Trap Semi Coated Hook Link
Semi StiffThis is a stiffer version of our original, and incredibly popular, N-Trap Soft coated braid. It features a tough, matt-finish coating which is still very easy to strip back, so as to reveal the strong Dyneema inner braid.
N-Trap Semi-Stiff knots very well, and without the outer coating breaking in places where you don’t want to add extra movement.
It can be used to create a vast variety of different rigs, including combi-links, multi rigs and KD presentations, as well as making the ideal boom material for things such as soft hinged rigs.
Each spool contains 20m of N-Trap Semi-Stiff.Key features

Korda Spinner Hooks
Our newest hook pattern designed purposely for use with the Spinner Rig.
The 55-degree eye angle follows the direction of a kicker which enables the hook to sit perfectly when used with a buoyant hook bait.
Furthermore, the long, curved shank opens the gape of the hook when mounted on a Spinner Swivel offering the very best hooking potential.
Coupled with a super sharp, straight hook point, these hooks raise the bar even further when using the already deadly Spinner Rig.
The hooks have a durable PTFE coating and are available in sizes 4, 6, 8, barbed and barbless.
Supplied in packs of 10.
Purposely for use with the Spinner Rig
Super sharp, straight hook point
PTFE coated
Intermediate sizes available

They can be used with both bottom baits and pop-ups, and are simply screwed into the bait in a clockwise direction, and have the surface area to ensure that the boilie stays on during the cast.

Korda Kwik Links

The shape of the clip makes it very easy to attach and detach things such as leads, swivels or hook link looks, even with cold hands or in the dark.
Use a Tapered Sleeve, or similar, over it for a neater, more secure finish, especially when using to attach a hook link.
The Kwik Link has a non-reflective finish.Key features

Korda Basix Baiting Needle
The Basix Baiting Needle can be used with most baits, as it is sharp and strong, meaning that it can be pushed through most harder baits without fear of splitting them.
The ‘crook’ on the end has been designed to hold your hair in place whilst the bait is threaded onto it, off of the needle, but without danger of it fraying braided materials or causing them to separate, which can make it hard to insert a hair stop.
The bright green handle has been ergonomically designed, and should you drop it on the ground makes it easier to find.
The chrome plated needle has been designed to last and won’t rust.
Key features
Sharp and strong
Can be pushed through most baits
Latched
Hi-viz green handle
Korda Chod Rigs Short
The Chod Rig is an extremely effective set-up for fishing over debris on the bottom whilst knowing that your hookbait will always be presented in a way that a carp can still take it, and is a great option for casting to where you’ve seen fish showing, without causing loads of disturbance trying to find a clear spot.
But it can be quite fiddly to tie, and this ready-tied version takes all the hassle out of it and gives you something that must anglers would struggle to tie better.
The components and knots used are exactly the same as those favoured by Danny Fairbrass, utilising our Mouth Trap hook link material and Choddy hooks.
Two different versions are available, Long or Short, depending on what type of presentation you are looking to achieve, with Short often being favoured on a naked chod set-up.
Each Chod Rig is finished with a Ring Swivel to allow them to be threaded directly onto your main line or leader.Key features Ready-tied chod rigs
Tied to Danny Farbrass' specification
Long or short versions
Micro Barbed or barbless
Three rigs per pack
Korda Kwik Melt PVA Tape
PVA Tape is the perfect choice for tying stringers, but is also great for using to tie-off the tops of Solidz PVA bags, as well as for securing your hair in place so that it can’t tangle during the cast.
Kwik Melt PVA Tape will dissolve quickly, even in cold conditions, and doesn’t leave any residue.
It is also very strong and durable, so as long as it is kept dry beforehand, it will stand up to long distance casting.Key features
