Product Information
Full details
The Nash Tackle Swivel Bait Screw 13mm is an essential terminal tackle component designed for carp anglers who value speed and efficiency during hookbait changes. By integrating a micro ring swivel with a threaded screw, this product allows you to securely attach boilies, pop-ups, nuts, and artificial baits without the need for traditional baiting needles; however, it is specifically sized for larger baits, meaning users targeting very small hookbaits may find the 13mm screw too long for their specific presentation.

FAQs
Can I use these with soft paste baits?
No, these screws are designed for firm hookbaits. Soft paste will not hold the thread and will likely come off during casting.
Do I need bait stops with this system?
No, the threaded screw acts as both the mounting device and the stop.
What is the primary benefit of the micro ring?
The micro ring allows the bait to rotate freely, which results in more natural bait movement and improved hooking potential.
Are these reusable?
Yes, once you remove the bait, you can clean the screw and use it for your next setup.
Can I use these on a standard hair rig?
These are primarily designed for rigs where the bait is mounted on the hook shank, such as the Ronnie rig or D-rig, rather than a traditional long hair.
Troubleshooting
Bait keeps falling off during the cast
The bait may be too soft or the screw may not be penetrating far enough. Try using a firmer bait or ensure you are screwing the device in until the eye is flush with the bait surface.
Screw is difficult to thread into the bait
If the bait is too hard (e.g., extremely dried-out boilies), consider using a very small drill or needle to create a pilot hole before inserting the screw.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly faster hookbait changes compared to hair-rigging
- Enhanced bait movement due to the swivel attachment
- Robust construction ensures bait stays secure during long casts
- Reduces tackle clutter by removing the need for bait needles and stops
Cons
- 13mm length may be oversized for tiny pop-ups or small wafters
- Requires a firm bait texture to prevent the screw from tearing out on impact
- Specific to threaded mounting; not suitable for soft dough baits
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the bait screw, first ensure your chosen bait is firm enough to accept the screw thread. Hold your bait between your thumb and forefinger, place the point of the screw into the center of the bait, and rotate clockwise until the screw is fully buried. Do not overtighten, as this can crack delicate pop-ups.
Compatibility is extensive; these screws are designed to be threaded onto the hook shank or a dedicated D-rig setup. After a session, inspect the screw for any signs of corrosion if fishing in brackish or saltwater environments, and rinse with fresh water to remove any lingering organic matter or bait residue. Store in a dry, organized tackle box to keep the thread points sharp and ready for the next trip.
