Korda Textured Flat Swivel Pear Fishing Lead

This classic pear lead will cast a long way, almost as far as the Distance Casting models, and is less affected by cross winds, as the shape is very condensed. This means that the Pear lead is suited to most carp fishing situations when fishing anything up to the very limit of your casting ability. The dumpy shape can be used to your advantage in silt; try using a very light pear lead, say 1oz or 2oz, and actually let the lead plug into the silt. This will dramatically increase the resistance to a moving carp so what feels like a light lead in your hand is transformed into a heavy lead in the fishing situation. Because the lead has a large rounded end it makes ‘feeling’ the lead hit the bottom easier than more slender or pointed shapes.

The pear lead is also ideal in a solid PVA bag because it can be pushed down into one of the corners. This makes the bag nose heavy, and thus more accurate. Developed due to massive demand, this lead gives you all the performance power of Korda’s world-famous leads, with a stylish textured coating, offering a  matte suface that won’t reflect light in the same way as a conventionally coated lead. The textured finish will pick up sediment from the lake bed, adding to the overall subtle effect. In fact, these leads get better and better with use! The characteristics that allow the leads to take on sediment will also allow the leads to absorb flavours, glugs or dips. Leaving a few leads to soak in Goo is sure to add an extra dimension of attraction.
