Korda Kaptor Kurv
These hooks represent the biggest breakthrough in hook manufacture& ever. We took our critically acclaimed Kurv Shank pattern and coated them with the industry's first coloured PTFE finish to make them blend in even better. The ultra-sharp Kaptor point has been left uncoated, because the development team had noticed that uncoated points were sharper. To preserve the eye-wateringly sharp point, each hook is 'capped' with a rubber blob. This process ensures that the sharpest point in the carp world stays just that. Each hook is then clipped into a bespoke packet so that it stays pristine until you need it.
The Kaptor Kurv Shank is available in Weed Green and Gravelly Brown camouflage. The colours have been carefully selected to closely match the most common lake bed conditions. The Korda team is in an excellent position to do this because of our extensive underwater experience. What this all means is that carp will find your rig much more difficult to spot on the lake bed, even up close.
The Kaptor Kurv Shank is an awesome hook that lends itself to a host of cutting-edge presentations such as the Muzza, The KD and Withy Pool.

Korda Kaptor Choddy
Kaptor marks the next step in the evolution of the carp hook. It is the first true coloured PTFE hook, the coating has been applied to all but the point of the hook, leaving it coating free which gives an increased sharpness to each and every hook. Every point is then 'Kapped' to prevent damage.
A hook designed to be incorporated with the popular chod rig or hinged stiff rig presentation. The pattern features an out-turned eye and the point is unbelievably sharp and reliable, retaining its sharpness in the most demanding conditions.
Anglers such as Jim Shelley and Nick Helleur swear by this hook. They've literally taken waters apart using it, so get on it. Its dull, anti-glare finish blends it in with the surroundings ensuring that you won't spook any passing fish. An absolute must for the avid stiff rig user.
Due to the wide gape in the pattern, it creates extremely secure hook holds as the beaked point holds firm and doesn't twist and turn during the fight. A great hook.
