Product Information

Full details

The Naked Gripping Chod Bead Heli Kit is an essential terminal tackle solution for carp anglers who prioritize presentation and rig security when using chod or helicopter setups. Designed for use directly on fluorocarbon or monofilament main lines, this kit provides a secure grip that prevents unwanted bead sliding while offering excellent shock absorption during the fight. While the system is highly effective at minimizing hook pulls, it requires careful initial assembly to ensure the components are correctly positioned for optimal performance.

FAQs

Can I use this with leadcore leaders?

No, this kit is designed specifically for 'naked' setups using monofilament or fluorocarbon main lines.

How many rigs can I make with one pack?

Each kit contains enough components to make three complete rig setups.

Will the beads damage my main line?

When used correctly, the gripping beads are designed to hold securely without causing damage, provided you are using compatible line types.

Is the buffer boom removable?

Yes, it is a modular component of the rig assembly, allowing you to swap out or adjust the rig during your session.

What is the primary benefit of the buffer boom?

It creates space between the lead and the rig to prevent tangles and absorbs the force of a fish shaking its head to prevent hook pulls.

Troubleshooting

The chod bead is sliding on the main line

Ensure the two-part bead is fully snapped together. If the line is very thin, add a small piece of rig tubing or ensure you are using a main line within the recommended diameter range.

Rig tangles during the cast

Check that the lead sleeve is correctly positioned over the lead attachment and ensure the distance between the bead and the lead is appropriate for your hooklink length.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your rig, thread the components onto your main line in the following order: the lead sleeve, the buffer boom, and finally the two-part gripping chod bead. Ensure the bead is seated firmly to prevent sliding.

Compatibility Note: This kit is designed specifically for naked setups using fluorocarbon or monofilament lines. Do not attempt to use this with leadcore, as the diameter will be too thick for the gripping beads.

Care Instructions: After every session, inspect your main line for abrasions near the connection point. Clean any mud or silt out of the bead components with fresh water to ensure they continue to grip the line effectively. If the beads become loose after heavy use, it is recommended to replace them to maintain rig security.
