Beads and Tubing

These Chod Rig Sleeves are the first of their kind on the market, designed to be used in conjunction with the chod rig to prevent the hook from coming into contact with the lead and to act as a buffer-like shock absorber when playing fish. The flexible silicone tube is mounted onto a soft sleeve which houses the lead retaining clip and provides a neat, streamlined system. You might wonder why this…

These unobtrusive stops grip hook shanks and stay firmly in place. They grip on a range of sizes from 4s to 10s and act as an ideal stop for Micro and Mini Rig Rings and Hook Ring Swivels.

When heated will reduce in size to half its original diameter, forming a tough protective sleeve over a range of joints. When heated the Heat Shrink Tube will reduce in size to half its original diameter, forming a tough protective sleeve which can be curved or angled. The 1.6mm best for line aligner rigs and the 2.4mm for Ronnie rigs. The 3.2mm can be used for sleeving lead loops and swivels.

Designed especially for helicopter rig setups and a perfect fit on ESP leadcore, these soft 5.5mm beads are housed on a handy frame which is a perfect size for storing in the tackle box. The frame contains 20 beads, 10 with a large bore and 10 with a small bore with a central membrane. The large bore bead is a perfect interference fit over the 0.5mm silicone tube supplied with the beads. This is d…

With a perfect balance of rigidity and flexibility, Line Aligners extend the hook shank at exactly the right angle to maximize hooking potential and then flex enough to avoid interfering with direct in-line pull and secure hook hold.

Designed for any rig that incorporates a sliding ring on the hook shank. Shank Stops are housed on a handy frame that can be stored neatly in the tackle box. No more problems trying to extract a tiny stop from a flip-top box. The frame contains 40 stops, 20 of each mini and small. The mini stops are perfect for hook sizes 8 and 10, whilst the small are best suited to larger hooks. Moulded in a sof…

These Rubber Shock Beads have a multitude of uses from creating helicopter and chod rigs to being used as a buffer bead for running lead and marker setups. The 5mm Rubber Shock Beads are designed to fit perfectly over the top of 0.5mm silicone tubing when used on leadcore for helicopter and chod rigs. In the event of a break, the top bead will push off the silicone tube and with its enlarged bore,…

These Rubber Shock Beads have a multitude of uses from creating helicopter and chod rigs to being used as a buffer bead for running lead and marker setups. The 8mm Rubber Shock Beads are made from an extra tough polymer and provide the perfect shock absorber when used in running lead and marker float setups. The tapered bore provides a perfect snug fit for the eye of a size 9 swivel.

Silicone tube has a multitude of uses in carp fishing and with five diamters available the ESP tube covers everything. From trapping the hair against the hook shank and using for the top bead on leadcore with the 0.5mm, to multi rigs with the 0.75mm and 1.0mm, to sleeving lead loops and swivels with the 1.5mm and 2.0mm. ESP silicone tube is tough, supple and the perfect shade of matt olive green.

Streamliner Rig Booms have three prime functions. To mask and protect the knot, to act as a stiff boom to prevent tangles and to help lay the hooklink out away from the lead. Unlike other anti-tangle sleeves which tend to float up off the bottom at an angle, these are moulded in a heavy polymer which lays flat, minimumising the need for tungsten putty.

Designed as a very convenient alternative to tungsten putty, they provide a secure fit over the swivel knot or trapped on a short loop. Perfect as a counterbalance on Ronnie rig booms and on the hook section of a hinge rig. The beads need to be pierced with a splicing needle or fine bait needle then threaded onto the link and pushed over the swivel or loop knot. Containing 75% tungsten, the Small…

These are four times heavier than the rubber versions (the difference is really noticeable) while still remaining soft and flexible. Designed to be mounted on leadcore on a short section of 0.5mm silicone tube which is supplied with the beads. This provides a safe set up where the bead can come off the silicone tube and pass over the leader knot in the event of a break-off, releasing the hook link…
