This Shrink Tube can be used to finish off rigs and increase their hooking potential by curving the hook link inwards and helping the hook to flip over once in the carp’s mouth. It’s also perfect for covering and securing quick change swivels when used on any part of your end tackle.
There are several rigs which utilise Shrink Tube, with the line aligner/kicker style rigs being the most popular. By using shrink tube as a kicker, there is no restriction on how long you can extend the shank of the hook, which is ideal for those anglers that prefer a longer curved kicker.
The shrink tube is stiff enough that it will maintain its shape, but once a fish is hooked it will straighten so that no damage is done – unlike with an actual bent style or long curved hook.
Our shrink tube comes in various sizes and colours to meet every angler’s requirements.
Weed, Clay, Silt & Gravel come in Small 1.2mm & Medium 1.6mm, which covers most hook sizes and swivels, with Weed also coming in XL for those who require a higher diameter. Our Clear version is available with a finer diameter of 1.0mm along with 1.2mm and 1.6mm.
An extremely versatile end tackle component which can be used with any hook size and match to any lakebed you are fishing over.
Each pack contains eight 55mm lengths.
