NASH Armourlink Braided Hooklink

Product benefits

Specifically designed for carp fishing, NASH Armourlink is a next-generation sinking carp hooklink that meets the demands of modern carp anglers. This ultra-dense linking material settles instantly on the bottom, making your rigs much more discreet and reducing the risk of suspicion from the most wary fish. Its braided construction combines high-density fibers and Dyneema to provide an ideal balance of strength, suppleness and longevity.

Developed exclusively by Kevin Nash and manufactured in Europe, Armourlink stands out for its remarkable anti-tangle properties without requiring a stiff coating. Resin-coated with a specific formulation, it performs perfectly on the cast and naturally positions itself on the bottom, even at long range. Thanks to its pronounced flexibility once submerged, it conforms to contours and improves bait presentation, resulting in clearer and more consistent takes.

Technical specifications

• Developed by Nash and manufactured in Europe for consistent build quality.
• Available in various strengths and options to adapt your hooklinks to fishing conditions and locations.

Advantages and key strengths

The primary advantage of Armourlink is its ability to remain perfectly attached to the substrate. Where lighter hooklinks may lift under current or fish movement, this material becomes unnoticeable, which significantly reduces the risk of visual or tactile detection. On heavily fished waters, this increased stealth can make a real difference in catch rates.

Another major strength is its exceptional abrasion resistance. Whether you fish near branches, rocks or sharp shells, Armourlink is designed to withstand repeated rubbing without failing, reducing break-offs during the hook‑set or the fight. You gain a reliable and reassuring carp terminal tackle solution suited to committed fishing.

Despite this robustness, Armourlink remains surprisingly supple once in the water. This flexibility allows the presentation to stay natural and follow bait movement, countering the suspicion of large carp accustomed to overly stiff rigs. The compromise between casting stiffness, anti-tangle behavior and in-water suppleness has been carefully engineered to provide a technical hooklink that's easy to use, even for less experienced anglers.

Usage advice

Armourlink is ideal for creating most modern carp rigs: standard hooklinks, helicopter rigs, combinations with stiffer hooklinks or leadcore, etc. Simply match the chosen strength to the type of water, the target fish size and the presence of obstacles. In snaggy environments, favour a safety reserve to keep control of the fish throughout the fight.

To get the most from this material, make sure to tighten your knots after moistening them, then always test each hooklink before putting it into service. Also smooth the hooklink between your fingers before casting to align it correctly; its high density will then allow it to settle quickly on the bottom. Finally, pair Armourlink with quality leads and swivels to benefit from a consistent and durable terminal set-up.
