Advantages and Highlights

Using a quality silicone sleeve on your rigs provides many benefits. It protects the line from abrasion against the hook eye, leads or obstacles, which reduces the risk of breakage during a strong fight. By guiding the hook into a more aggressive position, it also improves rotation and facilitates solid hook-ups, even on subtle takes.

This silicone tubing for carp fishing also helps make your rigs more discreet. By covering knots and smoothing sections of the leader, it prevents overly conspicuous shapes on the bottom and limits unwanted reflections. The result: a cleaner, more streamlined rig that is often more effective on educated carp that are wary of sloppy presentations.

• Line and knot protection: the silicone acts as an extra protective layer on sensitive areas of the rig.
• Reduced tangles: by slightly stiffening certain sections, the sleeve limits stray loops and leaders wrapping around the lead.
• More natural presentation: the leader’s shape is better controlled, allowing the bait to behave more realistically to carp.
• More aggressive rigs: used as a hook kicker, the sleeve promotes hook rotation and improves the rate of fish that are correctly hooked.
• Reliable accessory: once fitted, the NASH sleeve remains stable and retains its properties across sessions.

Usage Tips

To fully benefit from this silicone sleeve for carp rigs, slip it onto your leader before tying the hook or attaching your rig components. Then cut a length suited to the desired rig and position it precisely on the area to protect or shape (hook bend for a hook kicker, knot to cover, area near the lead to improve anti-tangle).

Take the time to test your rigs in a bucket or at the water’s edge to check bait behavior and hook angle. Adjust the sleeve’s position or length if necessary to achieve the cleanest, most natural presentation possible. Also regularly check the silicone’s condition: if you notice significant wear, replace the affected section.

• Always moisten the leader before sliding the sleeve to preserve the line.
• Adjust sleeve length for each rig type to maintain a balanced presentation.
• Test the rig in clear water to verify hook angle and bait behaviour.
