Product Information
Full details
Trakker Bait Floss is an essential terminal tackle accessory designed for carp anglers who demand reliable bait security during long fishing sessions. This extra-strong, unscented nylon thread excels at pinning hookbaits firmly in place, ensuring they survive powerful, long-distance casts without detaching. While it offers superior grip and knot reliability, users should note that the floss requires a steady hand and a lighter for clean finishing to ensure the best results.

FAQs
Is Trakker Bait Floss scented?
No, it is completely unscented to ensure it does not alter the appeal of your chosen bait.
How much floss comes on a spool?
Each spool contains 20 meters of high-strength nylon floss.
Can I use this for bottom baits as well as pop-ups?
Yes, it is perfectly suitable for securing a wide variety of bait types, including hardened bottom baits and cork-ball rigs.
Does the white color spook carp?
The material is designed to be tucked into the bait itself, making it virtually invisible once the presentation is completed.
Do I need a special tool to apply it?
No special tool is required, though a pair of sharp scissors and a small lighter are recommended for clean cutting and finishing.
Troubleshooting
Knot slipping during the cast
Ensure you are using a flame to lightly melt the tag end of the knot, creating a small bump that prevents the line from pulling through.
Bait splitting when wrapping
Reduce the tension applied during the wrapping process and ensure your hookbait is not overly dry or brittle.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Reliably keeps hookbaits secure for longer periods
- Neutral profile avoids spooking wary fish

- White color may contrast against certain dark lake beds
- Manual application can be time-consuming compared to ready-made rigs
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Trakker Bait Floss, keep the spool in a dry, cool environment away from direct sunlight, which can weaken nylon fibers over time. When preparing your rig, always ensure you have a sharp pair of scissors or a dedicated bait tool to make clean cuts. This floss is fully compatible with all standard carp rig components, including swivels, anti-tangle sleeves, and various hook patterns. Ensure that after each session you inspect the floss on your active rig; if you notice any fraying caused by crayfish or submerged debris, replace the bait and the floss segment immediately to ensure your next cast remains secure.
