Korum Smokescreen Speci Feeder Beads (5mm) – Streamlined Strength by Gerry’s Fishing
When targeting hard-fighting specimen fish, your terminal tackle needs to be as tough as it is stealthy. The Korum Smokescreen Speci Feeder Beads are the heavy-duty brothers of the standard range, featuring a larger 5mm profile designed to handle the weight of large feeders and the power of hard-charging fish like Barbel, Carp, and Tench.
At Gerry’s Fishing, we highly recommend these for “traditional” feeder setups. The design is incredibly streamlined to prevent weed pick-up, and the integrated metal clip features a snag-free design, ensuring your mainline or hooklink never gets caught where it shouldn’t. Finished in the elite Smokescreen Camo, these beads provide the ultimate blend of high-tension durability and underwater concealment.
Rugged & Reliable Performance
-
Heavy-Duty 5mm Profile: Built larger and stronger to act as a substantial buffer for heavy specimen feeders and large leads.
-
Snag-Free Metal Clip: The internal clip is precision-shaped to eliminate sharp edges, ensuring your rig remains tangle-free and safe for the fish.
-
Smokescreen Camouflage: The unique matte finish breaks up the bead’s outline on the river or lake bed, making it invisible to cautious specimen fish.
-
Quick-Change Efficiency: Designed for the angler on the move; simply slide the sleeve to swap feeders or weights in seconds without re-tying.
-
Streamlined Shape: The tapered outer sleeve reduces drag in the water and prevents debris from collecting on your rig—vital for river fishing.

Where to Use Smokescreen Speci Feeder Beads
The 5mm Speci Bead is a workhorse for demanding environments:
-
Powerful Rivers: The perfect buffer bead for fishing large block-end or open-end feeders for Barbel and big Chub in fast currents.
-
Specimen Carp on the Feeder: Use these when fishing “Method” or “Pellet” feeders for large carp where you need a bead that can take the impact of a violent bolt-take.
-
Weedy Venues: The snag-free, streamlined design makes these the go-to choice for fishing in “Choddy” or weedy areas where standard clips might catch on vegetation.
-
Big Pit Bream & Tench: Ideal for distance casting on large reservoirs. The 5mm size provides a massive “landing pad” for the feeder, protecting your knots during high-impact casts.
Gerry’s Pro Tip: These beads are perfect for “Running Rig” setups. By using the Speci Feeder Bead as your primary connector, you create a low-resistance system that lets the fish run with the bait before feeling the weight of the feeder—essential for shy-biting specimens
