Usage instructions
- Attach the tail rubber to the lead clip on your rig as you would with standard carp gear, ensuring a snug fit that holds during the cast.
- Pair with PVA solid bag setups to maximise control over lead placement and minimise movement in the bagged presentation.
- Cast with confidence: the tail rubber should keep the lead secure during the initial take and throughout the cast.
- Play and fish: if tension rises or a snag occurs, the tail rubber will release, helping to reduce resistance and the risk of tangles.
- Inspect after each session: check for wear, deformation or stretching. Replace if any signs of damage appear to maintain performance.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat to prolong life and preserve elasticity.
