Korda Solidz PVA Solid Bag Leaders KPVALL

Product Information

Bream and Tench: These fish sift through the substrate for food and are likely to be attracted to the dense baiting zones created by PVA bags.

A solid bag rig is a type of carp fishing rig that can be used to catch carp. It consists of a solid PVA bag filled with dry feed bait such as pellets, breadcrumb, chopped boilies, and additives such as salt. If you are yet to use a solid bag, you should certainly give them a try – in the right situation, at the right time, they can be an extremely successful tactic and a fooler of even the wariest carp. Particles: Such as maize, hemp, or tiger nuts. However, ensure they are thoroughly soaked and prepared to be safe for the carp. There are then the Tidy Stem Tubing Kits; these have a slightly longer fused loop, which is used to mount a ‘tubing to stem’ connector. As the name suggests, this seamlessly joins your tubing to the Tidy Stem, with no worries of the tubing pulling out and ruining your solid bag! Again these come with six stems, as well as three connectors and two metres of tungsten tubing for your three rods.Predatory species: Pike or perch are enticed by movement and may respond more favourably to a PVA mesh presentation filled with wriggling maggots or worms. So how should your put together solid bag rig? Well, like other popular carp rigs– there are many ways to do this. Below, we begin breaking up the different sections of a solid bag – then we’ll move on to making them! Solid Bag Leaders A key question is how long should your PVA bag rig be? Well, you can use most ‘standard’ PVA solid bag sizes for the majority of angling situations. So, when is the solid bag an effective tactic? There has always been a time and a place for the solid in my angling and when I feel the time arises, the necessary items that are needed to construct a bag and suitable rig are to hand.

Loans available to permanent UK residents aged 18 and over. Subject to status. Eligibility and conditions apply. I prefer using dry baits because anything mildly wet will accelerate the dissolve speed of your PVA bag, which means you may not be fishing efficiently!You’ll also want to use a leader material that is quite abrasion resistant. This will help to prevent the PVA from damaging your line as it dissolves. Fluorocarbon leaders are a good option, as they’re both strong and abrasion resistant. Each Gemini Leader is produced using 100% Fluorocarbon, our leaders are not plastic coated. The fluorocarbon material we use has a light refractive index of 1.42 (very similar to water), making them near invisible underwater. These readymade leadcore leaders have been designed for speedy fishing – allowing you to take advantage of what might be short feeding windows! They have recommend tying a figure-of-eight loop in the end of your main line to allow for rapid changing of setups.

This is because when the PVA bag dissolves it can put quite a bit of strain on your fishing line– especially if there are multiple fish feeding on your patch of bait. Navigating the intricacies of PVA products can be daunting for both novice and seasoned anglers. However, with a little knowledge and some practical insights, you can elevate your bait presentation game. Here are some tips to get the most out of your PVA bags and mesh: Environmental Impact: While PVA itself is considered biodegradable and should not contribute to long-term pollution, the broader environmental impact depends on the additives and other materials that might be present in specific PVA products. It's always a good practice for anglers to choose products that are confirmed to be environmentally friendly. Thanks to a spliced loop, they can be simply looped on and off your main line, which means that you can tie several in preparation for hauling and loop a new one on in an instant! PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) bags are designed to be water-soluble and biodegradable. When they dissolve in water, they typically break down into harmless compounds. Thus, in the context of their intended use for fishing bait presentations, PVA bags should not pollute the water.Complete Dissolution: PVA bags are formulated to dissolve completely in water, but the rate of dissolution can vary based on water temperature and the specific formulation of the PVA. In very cold water, the bags might take longer to dissolve. However, they should eventually dissolve without leaving any residues. Borrowing more than you can afford or paying late may negatively impact your financial status and ability to obtain credit.

Roach and Rudd: Fish species that feed in shoals, might be attracted to the scattered bait presentation offered by PVA mesh, as it imitates a more natural food dispersion. The extremely dense nature of Fluorocarbon material used ensures these leaders sink very fast and keep everything pinned down on the lake bed. On average, if you're not getting bites or seeing activity after about 30 minutes to an hour, it might be worth recasting. However, this is a general guideline and can vary based on the specific conditions and environment. On average, in moderate water temperatures, PVA mesh might take anywhere from a couple of minutes to about 20 minutes to fully dissolve. It's always a good idea to test the specific mesh you're using in the water conditions you're fishing in to get an accurate dissolution time. Your rig is placed inside the solid bag, with the aim that once cast into the lake and settled on the bottom – the solid bag will dissolve releasing your rig, hook bait, and dry feed.

Brand

Gemini has really thought things out and included a couple of additional extras too, including a stainless steel wire tool for mounting the connector on to your tubing, as well as a silicone line stop that is pushed on to your main line to stop the tubing from sliding off as you tie on a new bag!
