Korda Naked Chod System
The naked chod rig, fished directly on your main line, is an incredibly effective set-up, especially when you don’t want to disturb fish already in front of you, but can’t be sure that it is clear on the bottom, as your hookbait will always be presented in a way that it can be taken by a carp, even if it lands on weed.
It is less obtrusive than one involving a leader, and is also the perfect choice on waters where leaders are banned.
The Naked Chod Safety System is the perfect – not to mention very simple – way to set this up quickly and efficiently and contains all of the components you need, apart from a Size 11 Ring Swivel or Size 11 QC Ring Swivel.
The system comprises of a Rubber Barrel Bead, which goes closest to the lead, and then your Ring swivel is sandwiched between that and a Chod Sleeve - with both components being supplied on a wire retainer which makes it very easy to thread them onto your line, which they will then grip and remain in place at whatever distance you set them above your lead (depending on the type of debris you are fishing over).
The Ring Swivel is prevented from sliding up the line beyond the Chod Sleeve once a hard plastic No Trace Bead is fitted to that. Should your main line break above the Chod Sleeve, then the No Trace Bead – which has a slit in the side of it - easily pops off of it and falls off of your line, allowing the Ring Swivel to come free, and the fish is left with just the hook link.
Each Naked Chod Safety System includes: 3 x Chod Sleeves; 3 x Barrel Beads; and 12 x No Trace Beads. Spare No Trace Beads are also available and are sold in packs of 25.Key features

Korda Kontour Fluorocarbon
This is the ultimate fluorocarbon main line and it took several years for us to find one which we were totally happy with.
It has all the properties that you would expect from a fluorocarbon line, being practically invisible in water and sinking very well.
But Kontour also has fantastic knot strength, and unlike many fluorocarbons, it can also be cast a long way, certainly up to and beyond the 100 yard mark.
It is available in 12lb, 15lb and 18lb, to cover any angling situation where you would want to use it.
Kontour is tough and can stand up to weed and snags very well, and although it costs more than a standard monofilament main line, but what you are getting for the extra money is a top quality fluorocarbon. Kontour comes on 200m spools.Key features

Korda Kable Leadcore Leader Heli-Safe 1m
The Heli-Safe system is brilliant for use with any helicopter style set-up, whether you are using a conventional rig or a chod, and is now available constructed on Kable leadcore and ready to use straight out of the packet.
These leadcore leaders are 1m in length, which makes them perfect for pinning everything to the lakebed and protecting fish from line damage during the fight, but aren’t so long that they adversely affect your casting.
Not only is this a brilliant anti-tangle set up, but it is also very safe for the fish as it incorporates the Mini Heli-Safe System – a more compact version of the original - and ensures that the lead will come off whenever it needs to.
It also incorporates our No-Trace Safety System, which ensures that in the event of your main line breaking, the hook link can easily come free of the leader, and each pack contains two spare No-Trace Beads (these can also be bought separately when you need more).
The top rubber on the No-Trace Safety System can be set close to the lead when fishing over a clean bottom, or moved all the way up to the other end of the leader when fishing over weed or debris, especially with chods.
The Mini Heli-Safe can be set in different ways depending on the fishing situation, with the standard spring releasing the lead under minimal pressure and ensuring it is dropped on the take, which is great in thick weed.
Or that can be replaced by the red spring (two supplied) which is designed for waters which are generally snag and weed free, and where you only want to drop the lead if it does become stuck in something.
There is also the option to add a collar (two supplied) which means that the lead will never be ejected, but in the event of a breakage the fish can still get free due to the No-Trace Safety System.
The use of a size 11 QC Ring Swivel allows you to quickly and easy change rigs, and a spliced loop at one end makes it simple to attach to your main line – loop-to-loop style is simplest and quickest.
The Kable Heli-Safe Leadcore Leaders are available in a choice of Gravel Brown or Weed/Silt, with two per pack, and also come with: 2 x spare No-Trace Beads; 2 x Mini Heli-Safe collars; 2 x Mini Heli-Safe red springs.

Thinking Anglers Out Turned Eye Hooks
The wickedly sharp and extremely strong Out-Turned Eye hooks are primarily intended for use with stiff monofilaments and fluorocarbon materials popular for pop-up sections on Hinged and Chod style rigs.
Additionally, they have a multitude of uses for bottom bait and D-rig presentations.The 15° angled OE is perfect for these tricky materials as it allows the hook to sit at a naturally aggressive and efficient angle, that doesn’t impact the hook’s gape.
The eye diameter and angle also help to maintain the perfect alignment between the hooklink material and the hook point – that means that the hook is easier to fine-tune with rigs tied with these hooklink materials.
The combination of our slippery PTFE coating, OE, lovely long tapered durable point, and the right length hook shank all comes together to ensure that the initial pricking and penetration of this hook pattern is impeccable, bedding down quickly and securely – and staying there…
These hooks are forged from a super-strong, extra-heavy gauge wire, and were thoroughly tried and tested by us for 2 years under extremely rigorous conditions prior to their public release.
Key features/specifications:
PTFE Coating for optimum penetration
Super strong double tempered extra heavy gauge high carbon steel
Super sharp, long straight points
15° out-turned eye
OMC Tweakers Eyed Bait Screw
Bait screws are great but limited hey?
UNTIL NOW! Previously when using them, bird life could pull a moistened bait off them! Nuisance fish also had the ability to pluck and remove the bait off the Bait Screw with ease…not to mention crays.
What about if you wanted to fish a snowman or add a topper?
Do it better, do it smarter. The Tweakers range is all about evolving ideas to improve your performance.
Previously they couldn’t be adapted for Snowman/Topper Rigs, nor adjusted to deal with birdlife picking up your hookbait?
The OMC EYED BAIT SCREW has the added hole to allow you to decide whether you want to use it with the addition of Bait Floss or not! Versatility is now ENABLED!
SMALL: (QTY 5) To be used with Boilies 12mm - 18mm
LARGE: (QTY 5) To be used with Boilies 20mm & larger
Drennan Carp Pole Float
Carp 1
The Carp 1 is the first in an all-new family of pole floats built with strength and durability in mind.
The same attention to detail has gone into these floats as our award-winning Alan Scotthorne range.
This means that each float is made from the highest-grade balsa for optimum buoyancy and given a special ultra-tough acrylic paint finish to seriously reduce the chance of your main line cutting into the body.
They also feature our unique black stainless steel spring eyes, which are smaller and lighter than other spring eyes on the market and designed not to pinch the line when under tension.
A securely bonded black fibreglass stem and hollow plastic Glow Tip complete with strengthening spigot adds, even more, strength and security to these feature-packed floats.
The Carp 1 has a slim, body-down, oval shape and a medium length hollow tip which is 1.5mm in diameter. It is also available in a wide range of sizes from 0.1g right up to 1g.
This makes it an extremely versatile choice for almost any bait or fishing situation.

Red, orange and yellow tips

Concentric construction
Carp 2The Carp 2 is a relatively long design with a diamond-shaped body and hollow bristle.
These properties make it extremely stable and great for coping with surface tow. The sensible 1.7mm tip diameter is also buoyant enough to allow you to drag some line on the bottom if required.
It is also a great choice for presenting bigger hook baits such as worms, paste, meat and larger pellets.
As with the Carp 1, it features the same rugged paint finish, a robust carbon stem and our unique black stainless steel spring eyes.
An additional feature is the Carp 2’s relatively long ‘banded tip’.
This can really help to aid bite detection, especially with lift bites when the float is shotted to the central black band.
You have a choice of red-black-yellow or yellow-black-yellow banded tips; depending on the colour your eyes handle best.
A wide range of sizes from 0.1g right up to 1g allows the Carp 2 to cope with anything from deep margin swims to large, wind-affected stillwaters.
