pablo7uk Posted May 12, 2020 Report Posted May 12, 2020 Could someone give me a step by step guide of components I need to make up a safe Heli rig. I've never used this set up before and although I understand the basic components of the set up I can only find either full kits to buy that use leadcore which I want to avoid or just the safety Heli clip for example korda. I've just bought some dark matter rig tubing originally not for this set up but wondered if I could get other components that would allow me to make use of this? Thanks in advance Paul Quote
yonny Posted May 12, 2020 Report Posted May 12, 2020 Tubing and helis doesn't work imo. The Korda heli/tubing kit was actually taken off the market as it was unsafe. If you want to avoid leadcore use fluoro imo. If you want to use Korda components then ideally you need: https://www.anglingactive.co.uk/korda-naked-chod-safety-system.html?sel=37448&gclid=EAIaIQobChMInNmAuv6t6QIVgrTtCh2few1-EAQYBSABEgIMpvD_BwE https://www.anglingdirect.co.uk/korda-line-saver-bead?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIq8yI1v6t6QIVRuztCh3C_ARxEAQYASABEgLZafD_BwE https://www.anglingdirect.co.uk/korda-quick-change-ring-swivel-round?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIt92c3_6t6QIViLPtCh2HjgyjEAQYASABEgIuUfD_BwE https://www.anglingdirect.co.uk/korda-anti-tangle-sleeves https://www.anglingdirect.co.uk/korda-heli-rubber There are hundreds of options out there tbh but this gives you an idea of what you need.

pablo7uk Posted May 12, 2020 Author Report Posted May 12, 2020 Thanks so much for the thorough reply I'll check it all out. When you say fluoro I assume you mean just the mainline? "Naked"? 😂 yonny 1 Quote

Thanks in advance Paul Is this any use? It is page 2 of a Chod rig thread: There are some pictures on there, and I have used a ring swivel, but it is fallen flat Please note, I do still make sure that if I have used a leader of any sort that the beads will go over my leader knot and the rig can follow.

ouchthathurt Posted December 28, 2020 Report Posted December 28, 2020 Nash heli beads into tubing, nice and simple, I use them with tubing with no issues Quote
framey Posted December 28, 2020 Report Posted December 28, 2020 Hopefully this link works knotless leader knot https://www.facebook.com/651647451650112/videos/leader-knot/157690222287506/ Quote
