Korda Chod Safe Box
KBOX2
ChodSafe
- Chod storage system
- Built from rugged, overmoulded plastic
- Holds 28 pre-tied rigs and three spare leaders
- Pop-out handle allows you to steam rigs on the Chod Safe
If you use chod rigs, or hinged stiff rigs then you’re going to want one of these neat cases. They’re an impact-proof way to curve and store up to 28 perfect Mouth Trap hook sections, of a range of lengths. Two different diameter sections allow you to set, and keep both short and longer pre-tied chod rigs in the perfect fish-catching curve.
What’s more, there’s also space for three pre-tied leadcore leaders (or similar) with Heli-Safe beads attached. Those clever design bods have engineered a pop-up handle to allow you to steam your chods into the perfect curve, without burning your fingers too!
The ChodSafe is finished in a soft-touch rubber and features a neat magnetic closure system to prevent it opening in transit.
Each ChodSafe comes with thirty pins to secure your rigs to the foam-lined cylindrical sections.

Korda Goo Corn Twist Bait Smoke
KGOO05
Goo Phase One
This was the phase that launched the Goo onto an eager carp world. It contains some Goos that have become absolute classic bait enhancers already! Here's a rundown!
PINEAPPLE SUPREME
This is one of the most popular and effective Goos. It's perfect as a hook bait glaze - especially when dried on and reapplied. Keep rolling, coating, rolling, coating and drying. Each layer will give you increased leakage time. Use the Supreme version to cut into the core of the bait and the Power Smoke to coat the outside of the bait, to give you that bonbon effect.
PINEAPPLE POWER SMOKE
The Pineapple Power Smoke is brilliant when applied directly to PVA sticks. If you’re fishing a runs water and you want to get some attraction into the water quickly then coating sticks works well. You can use it on zigs. The South Africans actually dry this stuff onto their zig foam.
TUTTI POWER SMOKE
Much of the things that apply to the Pineapple Power Smoke also apply to the Tutti one will do too. The major differences would be things like pH. The Pineapple Power is acidic and has a real impact on various waters. It's PVA friendly most of the year, but always remember to shake the bottle well to distribute the ingredients evenly. It's best during the warmer months, when the weather gets up to 15 or 16 degrees, so spring and summer really.
CO TWIST
This is an extremely natural, extremely sweet, yet subtle Goo. It’s classified as a Bait Smoke but doesn’t have the intensity of colour of some of the others. It’s not just restricted to use with hook baits, you can add it to ground baits, watered down, roll mixers in it or even glaze freebies with it. It lends itself brilliantly to zig spod mixes, it can be used in combinations on hook baits but I really do like to use it on my loose feed. Don't put a whole bottle in, add a little bit and make a nice soupy syrup with some water in a bucket and add that to your particle mixture, or glaze your boilies with it, really enhancing what you’re doing, compared to the guy next door.
PERFECT PEACH
This one first burst onto the scene when Pete Holehouse used it to win the UK Carp Champs. He used it solely in his spod mix when spodding over zigs and he found that he actually spodded less and kept the fish there for longer than he ever had when spodding over zigs. He was fishing face-to-face with another angler and was putting out half the amount of spods and catching more fish. You can add it to water to get it into the spod mix, or add it straight onto your particles.
RASPBERRY PLUME
This thick Goo has become famed for its use with floaters. All you need to do is dilute a small amount of Plume in a bucket and coat your floating pellets or mixers. When they soak it up, you'll be left with a super-attractive bait. Add it to your hemp or your chopped boilies and you’re adding another dimension of taste. If you’re struggling to get fish feeding, then try the Raspberry Plume.

Korda QC Swivel
KQCS
These clever swivels have been designed to make chod-rig fishing even easier. They feature a rounded crook rather than a conventional eye, into which you can clip a looped chod.
To create the loop, you can either tie an overhand loop or crimp a loop into the end. These loops can then be 'clicked' into the loop and won't come out unless you want to change a rig.
The swivels are PTFE coated, which prevents light glinting off, potentially spooking feeding carp.
Supplied in packs of 8.
From £3.75
Korda Unwaxed Bait Floss
KBFU
This unwaxed Bait Floss is ideal when tying hard baits lasso style to a Micro Ring Swivel or Rig Ring. The unwaxed coating enables the knot to be tightened down fully, making it less likely to slip when making multiple casts or using heavy leads.

Mainline Spod & PVA Pellet Mix
SPVA2KG
he Spod & PVA Pellet Mix is a unique pellet blend that has been formulated to provide a complex blend of attractors. The several mixed sizes of pellet used vary in oil content and so offer different breakdown times...
Meaning a feed of these pellets begins to release attraction and induce a feeding response as soon as it hits the water, but then maintains this attraction signal for long periods. With the varied pellet sizes going down to a ‘micro’ size, fans of solid PVA bag tactics will simply love this mix. As this type of mixed pellet sizes means unwanted pockets of air are excluded and the bag can be formed tightly for a compact finish that improves casting distance and accuracy.

Sticky Bait Manilla Dumbell Wafters
SBMW
Manilla Dumbell Wafters
Designed to replicate our popular Manilla Boilies, these dumbell-shaped hookbaits will slowly sink under the weight of the hook.
For anyone unfamiliar with the principal, Manilla Dumbell Wafters perfectly counteract the weight of your rig, leaving a critically balanced bait that will fool even the wariest of carp.
You may note they come in a slightly lighter colour than the bottom baits but this is no accident, once the bottom baits have been immersed in water they will match the wafters perfectly. If you wish to increase attraction further still, then our Manilla Bait Glug is available, making a combo we think is irresistible to any carp. Great as singles or fished over any of our Manilla products.
Supplied in 130g tubs.
Available in round 16mm Wafters.
