Product Details and Uses

Korda Tail Rubbers

Korda Tail Rubbers are a fundamental component of the modern bolt-rig setup. Designed to work in perfect harmony with the Korda Lead Clip system, these rubbers serve a dual purpose: they streamline your rig for better casting and, more importantly, they provide a reliable safety mechanism to ensure the lead can be jettisoned if it becomes snagged.

Every tail rubber in the range is part of the “Safe Zone” family, meaning they are available in four key translucent colours. This allows you to camouflage your terminal tackle against any lakebed, ensuring that even the most suspicious carp won’t be spooked by unnatural-looking hardware.

Key Applications & Performance

Lead Clip Systems: These rubbers provide the “cap” for your lead clip. The further you push the rubber onto the clip, the more pressure is required to release the lead. This is vital when fishing in weedy or snaggy venues where losing the lead is necessary to land the fish.
Anti-Tangle Buffer: The long, tapered tail acts as a boom, pushing the hooklink away from the lead during the cast. This drastically reduces the chance of the hooklink wrapping around the mainline or leader in flight.
Knot & Swivel Protection: Beyond the lead clip, these rubbers can be used as heavy-duty buffers for running rig setups or to protect the knot on large-eyed swivels during heavy casting.
Zig Rig Fishing: Essential for use with lead clips when fishing zigs in deep water, allowing the lead to drop instantly upon a take to prevent the fish from using the weight of the lead to shake the hook.

Pro Tip from the Gerry’s Fishing Team

Control the “Drop.” To ensure your lead ejects only when it truly needs to, always moisten the lead clip before sliding the tail rubber on. If you are fishing in clear water with no snags, you can push the rubber all the way on. However, if you are in thick weed, only push it on halfway. This ensures the lead drops the moment it encounters resistance, allowing the fish to rise to the surface where it’s easier to manage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which colour should I choose?

Matching the lakebed is key for concealment.

Silt: Best for dark, organic bottoms.
Weed: Ideal for fishing in or near lily pads and pondweed.
Gravel: Perfect for bright, stony areas or hard clay.
Clay: Great for firm, sandy, or yellowish margins.

Will these fit other brands of lead clips?

While they are designed specifically to the tolerances of Korda Lead Clips, they will fit the majority of standard Size 8 clips on the market. However, for the most reliable safety release, we recommend staying within the Korda ecosystem.

Are they durable enough for long-range casting?

Yes. The rubber compound is designed to withstand the high pressure of a “power cast” without sliding off the clip prematurely, provided the clip is dry when the rubber is seated.
