Product Details and Uses

Nytro Connex Stiff Feeder Links

Take the frustration out of tangled rigs with the Nytro Connex Stiff Feeder Links. Part of the precision-engineered Connex range, these links are a game-changer for anyone fishing a free-running setup. By using high-diameter, stiff fluorocarbon instead of standard mono or wire, Nytro has created a link that naturally “kicks” your hooklength away from the feeder, ensuring your bait is perfectly presented every single time it hits the deck.

Each link features the Connex Black Barrel Sliding Bead, designed to glide effortlessly over your mainline or shock leader. Whether you are finesse fishing for shy-biting roach or launching heavy distance feeders for big-water bream, these links provide the supreme strength, durability, and tangle-resistance required for modern match and specimen fishing.

Key Features & Benefits

Anti-Tangle Fluorocarbon: The stiff nature of the 0.45mm and 0.60mm fluorocarbon keeps your hooklink away from the feeder, virtually eliminating “wrap-around” tangles on the cast.
Black Barrel Sliding Bead: Engineered for a smooth, low-friction glide, ensuring the fish feels zero resistance when they pick up the hookbait.
Black Nickel Coating: All metal components feature a wear-resistant black nickel finish for maximum stealth and longevity in both fresh and saltwater.
Precision Manufacturing: Copper and stainless steel components ensure these swivels and snaps won’t fail under the pressure of a “bonus” double-figure carp.
Eco-Conscious Packaging: Supplied in Nytro’s “Planet-Friendly” packaging, reducing single-use plastics without compromising on product protection.

Where to Use Nytro Connex Stiff Feeder Links

Large Natural Reservoirs: Use the 0.60mm Hooked Snap version for distance work. When casting 60m+ with a window or bullet feeder, the stiff link prevents the hooklength from tangling during the high-velocity flight.
Commercial Carp Fisheries: The 0.45mm Safety Snap version is perfect for open-ended cage feeder work when you need a 100% free-running, fish-safe rig that still offers a “bolt” effect.
River Fishing: The stiff fluorocarbon is highly abrasion-resistant, making these links ideal for fishing over gravel bars for Barbel and Chub where standard mono links might fray.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“The beauty of these Connex links is the Black Barrel Bead. Most standard beads have a tiny bit of flash or a rough internal bore, but these are as smooth as silk. If you’re fishing a venue with a lot of ‘line-bites’ or shy fish, these are a must. My advice? Pair the 3-inch link with a slightly longer hooklength. The extra length on the stiff link acts like a boom, pushing your bait further into the ‘kill zone’ and away from the turbulence of the sinking feeder!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why use Fluorocarbon instead of Monofilament?

A: Fluorocarbon is naturally stiffer and more abrasion-resistant than mono. In a feeder link, that stiffness is what prevents tangles. It also has a refractive index close to water, making it nearly invisible to wary fish.

Q: Which length should I choose: 2.4in or 3in?

A: Use the 2.4in for shorter casts and “speed” fishing where you want a compact setup. Move to the 3in for distance casting or when fishing in silty conditions, as the extra length keeps your hooklink swivel clear of the muck.

Q: Are these links fish-safe?

A: Absolutely. When used on a standard mainline without a stop behind them, the sliding bead allows the entire rig to fall away in the event of a line breakage, meeting the safety requirements of all UK commercial fisheries.

Q: Will the bead damage my braided mainline?

A: No. The internal bore of the Connex Sliding Bead is precision-polished to ensure it glides over both mono and “slick” braids without causing any “bruising” or frictional heat damage.
