Korda Flatliner Distance

Korda Flatliner Distance Lead Weights in a number of different weights

With a four sided cross section and unique weight forward design,see what Korda have to say on when to use the Flatliner Distance Leads

This lead was based on a sea fishing design which was used to gold the bottom over wrecks far out at sea. The four flat sides ensured the lead always fell on one flat side and rarely rolled over. The nose heavy theme has been continued here so this lead will cast a very long way for an inline.

During the first ever field testing Danny F and Danny Turtle had over 90 carp in 4 nights on a big Dutch water, over half of those were over twenty pounds. Danny recalls 'the first night we both had a couple of twenties each but felt we should be doing better, a change over to a stiff link coupled with the prototype Flatliner Distance produced immediate takes for me, mainly because I felt the carp there had been hammered on soft hooklinks, so moving over to a short stiff hooklink with a heavy inline lead (the first prototypes were only in 4oz) made the rig act totally differently that what the carp where used to.

I caught loads more than Turtle because he had some mental block over the stiff rig, even though I was catching so many on it. Being in the last swim before the out of bounds may have had something to do with it, good angling, I say, I drove so I got the pick of the spots!

Fish a Flatliner Distance on a hard bottom like gravel sand or clay and the shape will actually hold the loop of a stiff rig off the bottom allowing a very free pivot point for the hooklink, so if the bottom is clean and hard and you are fishing with boilies (stiff rigs don't work with small baits like particles, they restrict the movement of a small bait too much) then try that combination.
