Korda Dark Matter Heli-Safe Leader
These Dark Matters leaders incorporate our Heli-Safe System and can be fished with any helicopter style set-up, whether that be a conventional hook link or a chod rig.
This leader has tungsten collars impregnated into it, to ensure it stays pinned to the bottom. It also incorporates the Chod Safe System which ensures that your hook link can come free of the leader in the event of your main line breaking, and your hook link can be easily attached via a QC Ring Swivel.
The DM Heli-Safe Leader comes in a choice of 1m or 50cm lengths, which gives you enough space to move the top bead well up it, such as when fishing it in deeper silt or weed, so as to ensure your presentation is good when using the longer version.
Some venues now have rules restricting the maximum length of your leader, and that is where the 50cm version could come into play – it is also great when fishing at long range as it will cast further.
The other end of this leader has a fused loop, which your main line can either be tied to, or to allow the leader to easily be taken off, the loop-to-loop method is best.
The Dark Matter leader material is very abrasion resistant, has a breaking strain of 30lb, and can be matched to whatever type of lake bed you are fishing over, as it comes in a choice of Clear, Weed, or Gravel.
Each pack contains one leader.

Korda Dark Matter Leader QC Hybrid Clip
We have now added a Hybrid Lead Clip QC version to our popular range of Dark Matter fused leaders, to allow you to quickly change your hook link in as hassle-free a way as possible, whenever you choose to.
These leaders have integral sections of tungsten to ensure that they stay pinned to the lakebed and help to avoid spooking wary carp, and come in a choice of 1m or 50cm lengths – to cater for those who require a shorter version, such as when fishing at long range, or where fishery rules dictate a maximum length.
At one they feature a Hybrid Lead Clip QC fused onto the leader and complete with a Hybrid Tail Rubber, and at the other end there is a fused loop for easy attachment to your main line – loop-to-loop style works great and makes it easy to change leader when you wish to, without having to cut or tie anything.

Korda Solidz PVA Leader
As the name suggests, these leaders are designed specifically for use with Solidz PVA bags.
They are constructed from 1ft of 50lb Kable leadcore, to ensure that everything stays pinned to the bottom, with a Size 8 Ring Swivel spliced at one end (if you prefer you can cut the ring off and just use it as a normal swivel) – which ensures they work perfectly with an inline lead and the swivel properly locates into the nose of it.
They come complete with a tail rubber to fit onto the inline lead, and at the other end there is a spliced loop, with the loop-to-loop method being the best way of attaching them – this means that you can have these leaders ready to go with a PVA bag already tied, and simply loop off one leader and put the fresh one on, and be ready to cast back out in a matter of seconds. Each pack contains three leaders. Key features

Korda Safezone Camo Leader Ring Swivel
These fused leaders have integral sections of tungsten, ensuring that they stay pinned to the lakebed and help to avoid spooking fish.
The Ring Swivel Leader simply comes with one of our size 8 Ring Swivels fused onto one end of it, and with a fused loop at the other end for easy attachment, and detachment, from your main line – the simplest way is to attach it loop-to-loop style.
It is the perfect choice for helicopter set-ups and can easily be adapted to fit a Heli-Safe System, plus as long as you moisten the leader first, our Inline Leads, Lead Clips, Running Rigs, and even Bait-Up Method Feeders can easily be slid down the leader to the Ring Swivel, and located in place.
The 1m length Dark Matter material used for these leaders is very abrasion resistant and has a breaking strain of 30lb.
There are also 50cm and 30cm versions if you require a shorter leader - such as for long range casting.
The leader can easily be matched to the lakebed as there is a choice of different colours: Clear, Weed, Gravel, Clay or Silt.

Korda Arma Kord Braid
This braided leader material is incredibly tough and abrasion resistant, making it a great choice of shock or snag leader material. It is thin for its breaking strain and as well as being tough, it is also supple enough that it casts very well when being used as a shockleader, such as when spodding.
It is more buoyant than the Arma-Kord Sinking version which we also sell, and in some situations this makes it more suitable as a snag leader as well – such as when fishing over tree stumps or similar snags close to the bottom, where you don’t want something that sinks too far in amongst them.
It comes in a low-vis brown colour and a choice of 30lb or 50lb breaking strains.
There is 20m of Arma-Kord on each spool.

Korda Kable Leadcore Heli 1m Leaders
If you want to combine a helicopter rig with leadcore, and prefer to use a pre-tied leader, then the Heli Leadcore Leader is the perfect option.
Each leader is tied to exact specifications on our 50lb Kable Leadcore and is as good as you can do yourself, offering a completely safe way to fish this set-up.
These 1m long leaders can be used either for fishing with a conventional hook link, or with a chod rig, and are constructed using our Leadcore Chod Safety System.
This system features a No-Trace bead, which ensures that your hook link comes free from the leader in the event that your main line breaks, and will easily pass over the leader knot.
The Heli Leadcore Leader has a Kwik Link and Helicopter Sleeve at one end – so that you can quickly attach a lead to it – and a spliced loop at the other end to make it easy to attach your main line. Each pack contains three leaders.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.

Gardner Camflex Leadfree 45lb
CamFlex Leadfree leader is a superb fast sinking leader material that has been woven using 100% heavy PTFE fibres, so it has the highest possible weight for a non-core leader material.
The amazing supple nature means that material will hug the contours of lake bed when it is fished slack, and feels ‘natural’ when a fish brushes against it.
The subtle flecked finish of this material blends in superbly, offering excellent rig camouflage in almost any aquatic environment.
Thanks to the PTFE fibres used in CamFlex’s construction the colour doesn’t darken dramatically when it is wet, so the shade that you see on the spool is the colour of the leader when it is on the lake bed.
The ‘Weedy Green’ is the perfect colour for use whilst fishing amongst a wide variety of pond weeds or blanket weed. Quite simply – it blends in superbly.
This shade of green also works really well over pale lake beds, like clean sand and gravel.
The Muddy Silt has a darker overall shade, and is the perfect colour for use on lakes that have darker coloured muddy beds and venues where the bottom is covered in dark filamentous algae.
The braiding used in CamFlex Leadfree means that it is easy to splice and offers extremely strong and really neat connections between mainline and leader plus joining onto terminal components.
CamFlex Leadfree combines a low diameter with an amazing limp, super soft silky feel and outstanding sinking and abrasion properties!
Available in 45lb breaking strain

Korda Armakord Sinking Braid
This is a sinking version of our incredibly popular Arma-Kord leader material. Whilst the original version particularly lends itself to use as a shockleader when spodding, Arma-Kord Sinking is more suited to situations where you require any incredibly strong, abrasion-resistant snag or shock leader material for use on your actual fishing rods.
It is the perfect choice for snaggy waters as it will lie on the bottom close to your rig – it should be used in conjunction with our fused leaders, Kable leadcore or rig tubing – and then during the fight with a carp it will help to prevent cut-offs on snags.
It also makes a great shockleader material if you are fishing at long range, as the lack of stretch helps you to properly compress the rod. It comes in a choice of 30lb or 50lb breaking strains on a 50m spool.
