Product Information
Full details
The Korda Floss Caps in Pink and Yellow are designed for anglers who want a reliable, streamlined way to secure hook baits without the frustration of complex knots. By replacing traditional knotting with a simple thread-through-and-blob method, these caps offer significant convenience during cold-weather sessions or low-light situations when dexterity is compromised. While they provide a highly secure attachment, they require the use of a lighter, which may be a consideration for those preferring knot-only setups.

FAQs
How many caps come in a pack?
Each pack contains 20 caps in total, with 10 pink and 10 yellow.
Do I need special bait floss to use these?
No, they are designed to be used with standard bait floss.
Are the caps reusable?
While the caps can be removed, the melting process for the floss usually makes the specific floss loop a single-use application.
Can I use these with very soft baits?
Yes, they are ideal for soft baits as the cap provides a wider surface area to keep the floss from pulling through the bait.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, Korda offers other variants such as White & Red and Clear.
Troubleshooting
Floss slipping out of the cap
Ensure you are using the lighter to create a large enough 'blob' of melted floss that is wider than the center hole of the cap.
Cap not sitting flush against the bait
Ensure your bait floss is pulled tight before the final heat seal, and ensure the bait surface is relatively flat to allow the cap to seat correctly.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly faster than tying knots, especially in cold weather
- Provides a secure hold even with soft hook baits
- High-visibility color options aid in bait identification
- Central holder keeps components organized in your tackle box
Cons
- Requires a lighter to seal the floss
- Adds a small physical component to the rig that some purists may dislike
- Specific to floss-based bait attachment
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, store your Floss Caps on their provided central holder to avoid losing small components in your carryall. They are compatible with all standard brands of bait floss. When using the caps, ensure you have a reliable lighter available, but exercise caution around your main line to avoid accidental damage. The caps themselves require no maintenance, but ensure the central cavity remains clear of any melted plastic residue from previous sessions if you plan to reuse them.
