Korda Kaizen Line
Product OverviewKorda Kaizen is a high-performance monofilament main line designed to cover a wide range of carp fishing scenarios — from long-distance casting to tight, snaggy margins. Developed over more than four years of R&D and in-water testing by Team Korda, Kaizen Mono offers exceptional strength, abrasion resistance, and low stretch, making it a truly versatile and reliable mainline.
✅ Key Features
Ultra-low stretch — Increased sensitivity, so you can feel your lead down even at long range.
High breaking strain to diameter ratio — Thin line for the strength, which helps minimise drag during casting.
Abrasion resistant — Built from premium Japanese polymers to withstand contact with snags, weed, and underwater structure.
Low memory / free-spooling — Supple enough to go through rod rings easily, lays nicely on spool, less “wiriness.”
Line markers every 250m — Comes on 1,000 m spools with markings to help you measure how much line is left.
Colour options — Green and Brown to suit different waterbeds / venues.

🎯 Use Cases / Selling Points (for Buyer)
Distance casting: The low-diameter, high-strength variants (e.g. 12lb / 15lb) cast very well, and thanks to the high breaking-strain-to-diameter ratio you can cast big leads without needing a separate leader under many circumstances.
Snaggy or weedy venues: The 20 lb or 24 lb variants are tougher and more abrasion resistant, ideal for margins, thick weed, or rocky bottoms.
All-rounder: Because it's so well balanced, you can reliably use Kaizen Mono as your mainline across very different fishing situations — no need to swap mainline depending on venue.
Long sessions / re-spooling: 1,000 m spool means you can spool multiple reels or keep enough for long trips / reline.
⚠️ Buyer Advice / Tips
Make sure to choose the right colour / strength for your venue: green is often best for weed or silt, brown for clay or gravel.
Use the line markers every 250m to manage your spool accurately; helpful to know how much you've used or have left.
When casting heavy leads or long range, check your drag and spool fill: even though Kaizen is very strong, you want to avoid over-stressing the line on hard casts.
If you’re listing multiple spools, describe clearly which breaking strain and colour each one is, and include photos of the spool label to avoid buyer confusion.
What Is the Spinner Rig?
The Spinner Rig is a very efficient carp rig, especially used “on the deck” (i.e., laying on the lakebed).
It uses a 5.5″ boom (i.e., a stiff link / hooklink of fixed length) for good presentation and to maintain the hookbait away from the weight.
A Spinner swivel is crimped onto one end of that boom to attach the hook. The swivel gives the hook freedom to rotate / move, improving hooking performance.
At the other end of the boom, there’s a crimped loop, which makes it compatible with “quick-change” lead systems (so you can detach or reattach the rig easily).
The rig is designed to be re-used: you can change the hook (or hooklink section) without retying the entire rig.
Sizes and Hook Options (Barbed / Barbless)
Spinner Hook Version
Available sizes: 4, 5, 6,for the hook itself.
For the ready-tied rig (Spinner Hook version), Korda offers size 5 (exclusive for the Spinner Hook pattern).
Both barbed and barbless versions are available.
The hook has a 55-degree eye angle, which is deliberate: this helps the hook seat properly when the rig is used with a buoyant bait (like pop-up) and a “kicker,” giving a good hooking geometry.
The shank is long and curved, which opens up the gape (i.e. gives more room to hook) when it's used with the Spinner swivel.
Hooks have a PTFE coating, which makes them durable, slick, and helps in penetration.
Ready-Tied vs Hook Sections vs DIY Rig
Ready-tied Spinner Rigs: Korda offers pre-built rigs where the boom, swivel, and hook are already assembled. These are made “exactly the same way as any of [Korda’s] top anglers would do it.”
Hook Sections: Alternatively, they sell Spinner Hook Sections, which are just the hook + swivel (pre-crimped). You can attach those to your own boom.
DIY / Tied by Hand: You can also tie your own using Korda’s recommended method. Korda provides a step-by-step guide on how to tie the Spinner Rig.
Strengths & Design Rationale
Why the Spinner Rig works very well:
Efficient hooking geometry: The 55° eye angle + curved shank helps the hook to sit properly and present a good gape when attached to the swivel.
Reduced tangling: Because of the swivel and the way the boom is constructed, the hook can move freely, reducing the chance of tangles on the cast.
Versatility in hook choice: With three hook patterns (Spinner, Krank, Kurv) and barbed or barbless options, you can tailor the rig to fishing conditions / venue rules.
Quick-change compatibility: The crimped loop allows the rig to be used with quick-change lead systems, which means rigs can be replaced or changed without retying the entire boom.
Reusability: You don’t always have to throw the whole rig away — swap out the hook section if needed.
Durability: Pre-crimped swivel and good quality boom material ensures high strength; PTFE coating on hooks for longevity.
Considerations / Trade-Offs (Especially for Barbless)
Barbless vs Barbed: Barbless hooks are often preferred for fish welfare and for venues with barbless-only rules. However, some anglers feel they lose more fish with barbless due to less hold, so you need to manage pressure / play fish well. (General angling trade-off; anecdotal discussion exists in community – e.g., see some barbless-hook-losing fish discussions.)
Hook size choice: Depending on the pattern and size, different hook sizes have different behaviors. For instance, using a smaller hook (e.g. size 6) vs a larger one can affect hooking efficiency and risk of damage.
Rig strength: While the rig is strong, using very stiff mainline / boom and managing casts is important to avoid breakage at weak links (like crimps or poor knots).
Reusability planning: If you want to reuse rigs a lot, buying hook sections may be more cost-effective than ready-tied rigs, but requires some rig-tying / crimp skill.
Overview – Premium Performance, Precision Carp Fishing
The Korda Kaizen Platinum rods represent the brand’s flagship carp rod range. They’ve been developed with a full high-end mindset: premium materials, advanced construction, and a performance target that covers everything from short-range work to long-range big carp scenarios.
These rods are for anglers who want maximum performance and refinement — whether fishing locally or abroad, stalking or bait-casting heavy rigs — and who are prepared to invest in a top-tier rod.
Construction & Key Features
The blanks are made using super-tensile, high-grade Japanese carbon, ensuring a lightweight yet strong blank with excellent responsiveness.
They use a fast taper profile mandrel, meaning the taper runs consistently from the butt through to the tip. The effect: very fast tip speeds when casting, superb hybrid of distance and control.
High-quality fittings: lightweight Sea-Guide TDG rings (including large 50 mm butt guide and 16 mm tip ring on many models), a premium Fuji DPS reel seat, and a Japanese shrink grip handle with stainless steel trim and an etched butt cap.
Durable clear matt finish: The blank is finished in a low-glare paint that shows off the carbon weave and has been tank-tested for durability.
Wide model range: The Platinum series covers multiple test curves and lengths to match varied carp fishing styles — including 12ft 3lb, 12ft 3.5lb, 12ft 4lb; a 12ft 6in 4lb; and 13ft 3.5lb and 4lb versions. Some models are dedicated to spod/marker work.
Performance design goals: The rods are built to cast long, recover quickly (minimal tip bounce after cast), pick up line swiftly, and still give enjoyable fish-playing action (not just “distance only”).
Models & What They’re For
Here’s a breakdown of typical models and what they suit:
Model

Performance & Feel
What sets these rods apart:
Casting performance: Thanks to the fast taper and high-grade carbon, they compress well and deliver strong casts. Even for anglers not ultra-elite casters, these rods help improve distance with less effort.
Tip & blank action: Most of the bend sits in the tip, giving sensitivity and initial flex. As the load increases (fish run, heavy lead), the mid-butt sections engage progressively, giving control and power. So you get both “feel” and “backbone”.
Fish-playing ability: Despite high casting specs, the rods still feel enjoyable to play fish on. The blank doesn’t feel excessively stiff or harsh — it strikes a balance between power and smoothness.
Quality build and handling: The rods feel premium in hand — light enough for long sessions, balanced nicely, and the high-end components add to the comfort and control.
Usage Suggestions
General UK waters: The 12ft 3.5lb model is ideal if you want one set of rods that cover most venues. You’ll get enough casting, and the action works for carp, tench, bream etc.
Big waters, long range: If you fish lakes where distances go 60-100 m+, or abroad, then the 12ft 4lb or the 13ft models are better suited — they give you extra length and power.
Spod/Marker work: Use the dedicated models if you often bait-up heavily or use spods/markers for long drops. The blank is tuned for heavy loads rather than purely playing fish.
Stalking or tighter swims: The 12ft 3lb may be your choice if you fish areas where finesse matters but you still need power to hold a big fish.
Transport & handling: These are still premium two- or three-piece rods; make sure your transport or rod-holdall is up to it, especially for the 13ft versions.
Line & reel pairing: To get the most from these rods, use quality reels with smooth drag, braid or slick mono and a leader line appropriate to your venue. Match the rod’s potential with matching gear.
Pros & Considerations
✅ Pros
Exceptional build quality and materials — premium feel.
Versatile enough to cover a wide range of fishing situations if you pick the right model.
Outstanding casting potential and strong blank action.
Great for serious carp anglers who demand performance.
Looks and feels high-end — satisfying to use session after session.
⚠️ Considerations
Price point: These rods cost significantly more than budget or mid-range models. They are an investment.
Might be overkill for casual anglers: If you only fish small lakes or for modest carp, you may not fully utilize the high specs.
Longer models (13ft) require more space to cast, may catch wind more, and need more care handling.
Since the action is tuned for performance, very novice anglers might find the rods require a little more technique (especially for distance casting) compared to ultra-forgiving budget rods.
Is the Kaizen Platinum Right for You?
You should strongly consider this range if:
You fish regularly and demand high performance from your gear.
You target big carp, or fish venues where casting distance and control matter.
You appreciate quality build, premium components, and are willing to pay for it.
You want one rod range that can cover everything — from mid-range to long-range, finesse to power.
You may not need this level if:
You fish mostly small lakes, for moderate carp, at short distances.
You fish only occasionally or as a social pleasure hobby and have budget constraints.
You prefer simpler gear and don’t chase extreme casting or massive specimen fish.

Why the Kaizen Green Range Stands Out
The Kaizen Green series is designed to bring many of the advanced features of Korda’s flagship rods into a more affordable package. While built with more budget-friendly materials than the top-end models, the Green range still offers high standards in blank design, guide layout, and overall feel.
Key Strengths
High-taper blank: The rods use a fast-taper profile, which means most of the flex is in the tip until heavier loads engage the mid and butt. This helps with accurate casting and smooth playing of fish.
Strong value: By using slightly more accessible materials for the blank, Korda has managed to keep cost down while maintaining performance for most anglers.
Versatile model lineup: The range covers several lengths (10 ft, 12 ft, 13 ft) and test curves (3 lb, 3.5 lb, 4 lb etc) to match a wide variety of water types and angling styles.
Premium components: Even though it’s the “value” range, the rods have quality guides, matte low-glare finish, well-designed handles and reel seats — things which improve comfort and durability.
What’s Included in the Range
10 ft models (e.g., 10ft 3lb, 10ft 3.5lb, 10ft 4lb): Ideal for smaller lakes, boat work or tight swims where a longer rod offers no advantage.
12 ft models (12ft 3lb, 12ft 3.5lb, 12ft 4lb): The most common all-round size, excellent for UK waters.
13 ft model (13ft 4lb): Built for larger venues, longer casts or bigger fish.
Some variations also include dedicated spod/marker rods in the same Green family for bait delivery work.
Test curves between ~3 lb and 4 lb: depending on venue and target size.
Build & Features
Matt low-glare finish, subtle green branding — classy and understated.
High quality guides (e.g., Sea-Guide TDG) with generous butt and tip rings: e.g., 50 mm butt ring / 16 mm tip ring on 12ft/13ft models, 40 mm/12 mm on 10ft models.
Flared butt grip, shrink-wrapped handle for extra grip and comfort.
Secure screw-down reel seats and durable butt caps.
The blanks have a “very tippy” feel but with enough backbone to control fish — good balance between finesse and strength.
How They Perform
In use, these rods deliver:
Smooth, accurate casts thanks to the fast taper and well-balanced blank.
A tip that flexes to absorb lunges and protect hooklengths, while the mid and butt generate the power to subdue fish.
Comfortable handling over long sessions — the feel is lightweight (for the class) and well balanced.
Great general performance without feeling like a compromise — for many anglers the difference between this and higher-end models is subtle and may not matter unless you’re fishing extreme conditions.
Usage Suggestions
Smaller lakes / canals: Use a 10 ft model (e.g., 10ft 3lb) — plenty of cast for medium distances, easy to manoeuvre, ideal when you don’t need 12+ feet.
All-round UK venues: A 12 ft model (e.g., 12ft 3.5lb) is perfect for most anglers and venues: good casting distance, comfortable handling, strong enough for serious fish.
Large waters / big fish / long range: The 13 ft 4lb model gives you the extra length and power when you need it — eg for big venues, bigger carp, bait delivery or long casts.
Line & reel setup: Pair with a good mid-sized reel (e.g., 3000–4000 class) and a mainline in the 10–15lb bracket (or larger if the venue demands) so the rod can show its full capability.
Target species: Carp (all sizes), tench, bream, mixed coarse fish — these rods are adaptable. If you’re after monstrous carp or extreme casting, you might push into higher test curves or more premium models.
User Feedback & Real-World Impressions
From angler forums and user commentary:
“For the price, they are one of the best today.”
Many users mention catching fish up into the 30–40 lb range on these rods with no issues — a strong endorsement of build quality.
Some note that while the “Green” range uses slightly lower modulus carbon than the top tier, in everyday use you won’t notice much difference unless you’re casting heavy leads into extreme range repeatedly.
A few users mention the back‐grip design or similar minor fit & finish items could be improved, but nothing major.
Pros & Considerations
Pros:
Excellent value for money — high performance at a more accessible price.
Strong all-rounder capability: you don’t need separate specialist rods for every venue if you pick wisely.
Quality materials and build for the class; solid durability and user satisfaction.
Stylish, minimalist design — useful when you care about gear appearance as well as performance.
Considerations:
While very good, they aren’t quite at the very top tier of carbon modulus or ultimate performance under extreme conditions (heavy leads, ultra-long range) — if you’re pushing those limits, you may consider the next level up.
As with any rod, choosing the wrong length or test curve for your venue will reduce enjoyment: e.g., using a 13 ft 4lb rod on a small lake may be overkill.
If you already have premium rods, you might not see big gains compared to them — but for most anglers upgrading or buying new, the difference vs budget rods is significant.
Is the Kaizen Green Right for You?
If you:
Fish across a variety of UK venues,
Want strong performance without ultra-premium cost,
Value good looks and build alongside function,
Mostly fish within typical UK distances (say up to ~50–70 m) and for mixed species of carp/coarse,
… then the Kaizen Green range is a very strong choice. On the other hand, if you:
Consistently cast extreme distances,
Regularly fish monster carp on mega leads,
Are looking for the absolute top tier of rod technology,
… then you might consider stepping up to a higher tier model, but for everyday use and most situations, the Green range offers exceptional value and performance.
Verdict
The Korda Kaizen Green range delivers impressive value, strong performance and excellent versatility for the modern UK carp angler. Whether you’re casting on your local lake, stalking in tight swims, or heading abroad to large venues, these rods will serve you well. They strike a fine balance between finesse and power, build quality and affordability, making them a smart choice for both intermediate and experienced anglers looking for a reliable, high-performance rod without breaking the bank.

Kaizen Platinum 12ft 3.5lb Test Curve Rod – The Ultimate All-Rounder
If you’re after a rod that can do it all, the Kaizen Platinum 12ft 3.5lb test curve rod is the one for you. Designed for versatility, this rod can handle everything from delicate flicks on small, intimate venues to blasting a rig over 35 wraps on a big, open water like Gigantica. Whether you’re stalking fish in the margins or sending a lead way out into the horizon, this high-end, lightweight, and perfectly balanced blank is built to deliver.
Danny Fairbrass on the Kaizen Platinum 12ft 3.5lb:
“I’ve been using a heavier version during field testing, but it’s nice to go back to the 12ft 3.5lb rods as they are the all-rounders. If you want to fish anywhere from one yard to 140 yards, with pinpoint accuracy, then these are the ones.”
The Kaizen Journey – Designed for Performance
The Kaizen rod range has been in development for over four years, and it all started with a simple idea: to create high-end rods that outperform anything currently on the market. Despite being Korda’s first foray into rod manufacturing, we pulled together the best minds in the business, including our Team Korda anglers and product development specialists, to create something truly exceptional.
Danny Fairbrass has been involved in rod design for years, working on some of the most well-regarded models on the market. It was a natural progression for Korda to create its own premium range, tailored to the exact specifications that he and our anglers demand. The goal was simple: a collection of top-tier rods that excel in every carp fishing scenario, whether you’re casting to the horizon or playing a fish at close quarters.
What Makes the Kaizen Platinum Special?
Tapered to Perfection
All Kaizen rods are built on a fast-tapered profile mandrel, meaning the blank has a continuous taper from butt to tip. This gives them a ‘tippy’ action, with most of the flex concentrated at the tip end. When you’re putting in a powerful cast, the rod will bend all the way through, but the real benefit is in power transfer—faster tip speeds and longer casts with minimal effort.
This taper also means quicker line pick-up, essential for setting the hook at range. And when you’re playing a big fish close in, the progressive power transfer helps cushion those last-minute lunges, reducing the risk of hook pulls. You get the best of both worlds—power when you need it and finesse when it matters most.
Superior Japanese Carbon – Lightweight and Powerful
The backbone of the Kaizen Platinum rods is a super tensile, high-grade Japanese carbon known as ZERO90. This carbon is used in just two layers with minimal resin, resulting in an incredibly lightweight yet ultra-responsive blank. This means:
Effortless casting – More power goes into your cast without unnecessary strain.
Pinpoint accuracy – Less blank twist means straighter, more controlled casts.
Instant tip recovery – The rod stops bouncing almost immediately after casting, ensuring your rig lands precisely where you aimed.
Over long distances, even small improvements in accuracy make a huge difference. These rods give you that extra edge.
Built to Last
Durability is key, and the Kaizen Platinum rods don’t disappoint. The blank is coated with a clear matt finish that not only looks stunning but also withstands years of exposure to sunlight and moisture. Each rod has been rigorously tank-tested to ensure longevity.
Premium Components for a Custom Feel
No compromises were made when it came to fittings. Every Kaizen Platinum rod is equipped with:
Sea-Guide TDG lightweight rings – A 50mm butt ring and a 16mm tip ring, designed to reduce friction and allow leader knots to pass through smoothly.
Fuji DPS reel seat – Securely holds your reel in place, offering comfort and stability.
Japanese shrink grip handle – Provides a solid grip, even in wet conditions.
JAG-etched aluminium butt cap and trim – A touch of class to complete the look.
Choosing the Right Kaizen Model
The Kaizen range offers a variety of models to suit every angling situation:
12ft 3lb, 3.5lb, and 4lb fishing rods – Covering everything from close-range work to long-range casting.
12ft spod rod – Designed for accuracy and distance when baiting up.
12ft 6in 4lb – The perfect alternative to a 13ft rod if you want extreme range without the extra length.
13ft 3.5lb and 4lb – The go-to rods for those looking to hit serious distances.
For long-range anglers, the 4lb models are a game-changer. With the right technique, these rods can put a lead beyond 200 yards, as demonstrated by casting experts Terry Edmonds and Darrell Peck. They even feature in our upcoming Long Range Masterclass filmed at Iles3 in France.
Danny Fairbrass on the Kaizen Platinum Rods:
“They are an absolute joy to use. So lightweight, yet powerful, with really light rings that let them move through the air effortlessly. They cast perfectly straight and look absolutely gorgeous as well.”
The Verdict
No matter your style or ability, there’s a Kaizen rod that will help you fish more accurately and at greater distances than ever before. Combining cutting-edge materials with expert design, these rods represent the pinnacle of carp fishing performance.
If you’re serious about your fishing and want a rod that can handle anything, the Kaizen Platinum is the ultimate choice. Whether you’re looking for an all-rounder or a specialist long-range tool, this range has you covered.

Kamakura - Precision Sharpened Hooks
Along with most carp anglers around the world, we believe a sharp hook to be the single most important part of your tackle!
The UNDERWATER filming and observations on various different locations around the globe has proven that an ultra-sharp hook gives you a greater chance of hooking big, wary fish.
Sharpened hooks
Lots of anglers have been sharpening hooks for many years, historically they did it because hooks just weren’t sharp enough out of the packet. In recent years chemically sharpened hooks led to a major improvement in hook sharpness, but even those could be improved by hand sharpening into ultra-fine points.
This tricky, time-consuming craft can give an angler a big advantage and help turn more pickups into actual hooked fish. Anglers like Danny Fairbrass, Darrell Peck and Elliott Gray have had to hand sharpen their hooks to get the very most from their fishing, as production constraints meant that an extremely fine point hasn’t been possible…. until now.
Korda Developments has spent years painstakingly developing and pushing boundaries in hook technology, the result being the;
KAMAKURA Hook Point - the sharpest possible hook, sharpened post-production to the highest tolerance.
Unique technique to produce the sharpest hook
When you open the packet you will notice two standout things. The first is the consistency of the product, every single hook being sold has the same super sharpness. With consistency being the key we take pride in getting every point exactly the same.
The second is a wax coating on the sharpened part of the point, this unique way of covering the tip ensures they stay in the best possible condition until they are ready to be used. Simply push the wax coating off before casting out and you’ll be fishing with the sharpest hook you can possibly imagine.
I believe this process/product not only to be a step forward in carp fishing hooks but a step forward in hook technology in general! - Tom Dove
The Korda Kamakura hooks range has slowly and carefully grown over time since its launch in 2018. We now have 3 hook patterns; Wide Gape, Krank and Choddy plus Wide Gape X. We also have a product created specifically to compliment the Kamakura hooks range, Kama Kote is a compound which has been specifically designed to prevent the corrosion of hook points, particularly those which have been sharpened.
As an angler, product developer and Managing Director of Korda I can’t tell you how proud I am of this product. It will bring a genuine benefit to all anglers that use them - Damian Clarke
