Gardner Bait Floss is a specialized angling tool designed for dedicated carp anglers who need a reliable, high-performance method for securing air-dried or hard hook baits. Its flat, zero-stretch construction ensures that baits remain perfectly positioned during long-distance casting and heavy impacts, though users should take care to heat the knots properly for maximum security. Supplied on a generous 50m spool, this floss simplifies the process of creating durable, professional-grade hair rig presentations.

Yes, it is excellent for securing pop-ups, especially when you need them to stay firmly attached during long periods in the water.
It is primarily designed for wrapping baits, but it can be integrated into various advanced rig setups where zero stretch is required.
Each spool contains 50 meters of high-quality bait floss.
The wax is integrated into the material to aid with knotting and sealing; it is intended to remain on the floss until it is heat-sealed.
Use a sharp pair of braid scissors for a clean cut before blobbing the ends with a lighter.
Ensure the knot is pulled tight before heating and that the blobbed end is large enough to act as a physical stop.
Gardner Bait Floss is designed for hard baits; if using softer baits, use a lighter touch when tensioning the knot.
Hold the heat source a few centimeters away rather than directly touching the flame to the floss.
To set up, tie the floss around your bait using a simple overhand or grinner knot, ensuring it is pulled tight against the bait surface. Once the knot is secure, trim the ends to approximately 2mm. Use a lighter or a dedicated bait-floss heating tool to carefully singe the ends until they melt into a small ball. Avoid applying direct fire for too long, as the material can burn. Keep the spool stored in your tackle box away from direct heat or sharp objects to ensure the wax coating remains intact and the material doesn't fray.
