Product Information

Full details

The Fox Removable Flying Back Weights are essential tools for carp anglers seeking to pin their mainline to the lake bed, effectively preventing fish from being spooked by line visibility in the swim. Designed for ultimate convenience, these weights can be attached to your existing rig at any moment without the need to cut or dismantle your set-up. While they excel at camouflage and presentation, users should note that they are specifically weighted at 10g, which may require minor adjustments to your lead setup if casting at extreme distances.

How many come in a pack?

Each pack contains 5 individual 10g weights.

Do I need to take them off before casting?

No, they are designed to be used during the fishing process. You can attach them after casting or keep them on while reeling in.

The weights are designed to be secure but can be removed if necessary by reversing the locking motion of the insert.

Are they reusable?

Yes, these are durable, reusable fishing accessories suitable for many sessions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • No need to re-tie or dismantle rigs to attach
  • Effective at pinning line to reduce fish spooking
  • Quick and simple installation mechanism
  • High-quality construction from a trusted brand
  • Suitable for a wide range of carp fishing scenarios

Cons

  • Fixed at a 10g weight, which might not suit all conditions
  • Plastic inserts may require careful handling to avoid loss
  • May impact casting mechanics if used with very light leads

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure the plastic inserts are seated firmly into the weight body before casting to prevent accidental detachment. These weights are compatible with most standard monofilament and fluorocarbon mainlines. After every session, rinse the weights in fresh water to remove silt or lake debris, especially if fishing in silty or muddy bottoms, to ensure the slots remain free of obstruction. Store in a dry place to maintain the integrity of the plastic components.
