About Korda

Korda Developments Limited is a privately owned, Essex-based limited company primarily engaged in the design and manufacture of fishing tackle, as well as producing angling films for a variety of platforms, including television.

The company was started by owner Danny Fairbrass back in 1992 and initially only manufactured leads, but now produces everything from small terminal tackle items such as hooks all the way up to larger products like luggage.

The Korda brand is focused on the carp market, but there is also a sister brand, Tackle Guru, which started out focusing on match fishing, and has now found favour with pleasure and specimen anglers as well, as its range of tackle has broadened.

The whole ethos has always been about helping anglers to catch more fish!

Each of our products are designed and extensively tested in-house, where we have complete control over each stage of the process - from the initial idea right through to it appearing on the shelves of tackle shops.
