The Korda Rig Toolz Strippa is a pocket-friendly tool for stripping coated hooklinks fast, neat and safe. It’s built for anglers who tie lots of rigs and want strong, tidy setups on the bank.
Coated body: secure grip even with wet hands on the bank.
Fine stripping notch: removes coatings cleanly to expose the inner core without snagging fibres.
Safe edges: protect the core by keeping edges smooth and burr-free.
Compact shape: slim profile that fits a rig pouch or pocket.
Regular-use design: built to stand up to modern hooklinks and frequent rig building.
Coating-assisted grip: coating gives extra grip and resists sticky coatings on common hooklinks.
How it works: Place hooklink in stripping notch; pull gently to strip coating; rotate for longer strips if needed; check core integrity before tying or crimping.
When you use the Strippa, you get a repeatable, clean strip every time, protecting the fibre core and reducing the risk of frayed fibres. Clean stripping yields stronger knots and better crimps, so joins stay solid and rigs look neat. It speeds up rig assembly at the bank, particularly when you’re tying multiple rigs or swapping lengths and materials. The coated grip helps you maintain control in damp conditions, and the compact form means you can stash it with other rig tools without adding bulk. Practical tips: start with light pressure on new materials to learn the feel; damp or warm lines strip more easily; keep a spare if you rely on heavy rig building. Care: rinse and dry after use to remove grit and sticky residues; store in a dry pocket to protect the edges; avoid dropping on hard surfaces to keep notches accurate. Who it suits: anglers who tie many rigs or alter hooklinks; those using coated leaders; anyone wanting neater knots and stronger joins that stay reliable through a long session. The Strippa is a straightforward and effective tool for tackling coated hooklinks, helping you strip smoothly, protect the core and speed up rig work on the bank.
Korda Loops Krank is a loop-tied Krank hook rig that frees the hook to rotate for a natural, free-moving presentation. It’s ideal for anglers chasing quick, positive hook-sets in pressured waters with a range of bait types.
Loop-tied link: Free movement for the hook to rotate, promoting a natural presentation and quicker reaction to bites.
Krank hook geometry: Designed for fast penetration and strong holds on the strike, helping you land more decisive takes.
Low-bulk finish: Discreet presentation that sits cleanly with many bait types, reducing visibility and snag risk.
Simple design: Minimal components for easy attachment and dependable performance across fishing conditions.

Care and storage: Rinse after use and store in a rig wallet to protect the gear and keep rigs ready for the next session.
The benefits are clear and practical: faster hook rotation and higher hookup rates stem from the loop-tied layout that gives the Krank hook freedom to turn as the bait bites. This means you get a more positive take and a cleaner hook-up, even when fish make short or tentative grabs. The Krank hook geometry complements that motion by promoting rapid penetration and a secure hold once set, while the low-bulk finish keeps the presentation discreet in clear or pressured water. The rig’s simple design also translates to reliable performance across a variety of fishing conditions and bait types, with straightforward attachment that minimises setup time so you can stay focused on casting, watching for takes, and reacting fast. In practical terms, it’s a versatile option for situations where you need a quick, confident rig that can be deployed to different spots, rigs, or baits with minimal fuss. To get the most from Loops Krank, match the loop length to your bait size, keep the hook point sharp, and rinse and store the rig in a rig wallet between sessions so it stays ready for the next day on the water.

Brand: Korda
Product line: Dark Matter
Type: Sinkers (fishing weights)
Design purpose: Depth control and stable presentation
Usage: Compatible with common rigs and leaders
When you’re on the bank and the tide is turning, these sinkers do the heavy lifting. They help you get your bait to the sweet spot, where fish are feeding. No fuss, just steady weight that sits in the current and doesn't drift with every gust. They’re a simple solution to depth and presentation problems. A few small changes can change results. Add or remove weight to fine-tune depth quickly. In a fast run, more weight helps you snap your rig into place and hold bottom against a strong flow. In calmer water, you can go lighter to keep the bait moving naturally in the current. This flexibility is what makes sinkers useful across seasons and venues. Durability matters when you’re fishing wrecks, reeds, or thick weed beds. Korda’s Dark Matter Sinkers are built to endure abrasion and repeated casting. They stay compact, staying out of the way when you tie knots and clip rigs. Easy to handle, they feel solid in the hand and sit neatly on the line. No rattles, no fuss, just predictable weight. Using the sinkers is straightforward. Attach to your rig and trim to your preferred depth. In most setups, you’ll attach the sinker just above the leader to help the bait sink cleanly. If you’re targeting the bottom, keep a bit more weight to anchor the bait and avoid drift. If the water’s clear and the fish are spooky, a stable presentation can make the difference between a bite and a blank. That’s where these sinkers earn their keep. Stellar for a range of waters, from slow rivers to big stillwaters. They pair well with standard rigs like basic running rigs or more advanced setups. They’re not flashy, but they do the job when you need delivery and control. For the angler who values consistency, Korda Dark Matter Sinkers are a trustworthy choice that won’t let you down when the session hinges on getting your bait to the right depth. Note on setup and etiquette: always check weight class and line strength before casting. Use proper rigs and safe casting practice. Keep the lead away from non-target species and dispose of packaging responsibly. With the right weight and a patient approach, you’ll find your presentation snaps into place and the bites come more reliably.
