We have noticed a number of incidents involving fish – particularly Carp – with torn mouth’s due to leads not breaking away and then snagging the fish. The fish struggles over a period of time resulting in severe mouth damage.
Can you please ensure you use rigs/hook length’s that breakaway from any lead weights in the event of a snapped line. Please use semi-fixed, free running or safety rigs. Korda size 8 swivels work well as the lead and swivel simply fall off when snagged. The Korda in-line leads work with the swivels as well.
