Korda Flatliner Distance Inline Lead 4oz:
This lead was based on a sea fishing design, which was used to hold the bottom over wrecks far out at sea.
The four flat sides ensured that 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 Fairbrass and Danny Turtle had over 90 carp in 4 nights on a big Dutch water - over half of those were over 20lb.
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 hook links.
So, moving over to a short stiff hook link with a heavy inline lead (the first prototypes were only in 4oz) made the rig act totally differently than what the carp were used to.
