Product Information
Full details
The Korda Floss Caps are designed for carp anglers who want to streamline their rig preparation by eliminating complex knots when attaching hookbaits. These caps provide a secure, efficient hold for your bait, ensuring it stays firmly in place even during aggressive casts, though users must be comfortable using a lighter to seal the floss ends safely.

FAQs
Can I reuse Korda Floss Caps?
While the caps themselves are durable, the process involves melting the floss ends, which usually requires cutting the floss to remove the bait. It is best to use a new cap for each new rig.
How many caps come in a pack?
Each pack contains 20 Floss Caps, with 10 of each color provided.
Will the color of the caps affect fish feeding behavior?
The choice of color can be used to add a 'sighter' element to your bait. You can choose colors that stand out to trigger a reaction or use more muted colors to blend in.
Do I need special bait floss to use these?
While any standard Bait Floss will work, Korda Bait Floss is recommended for the best consistency when melting.
Are these suitable for soft baits?
Yes, but ensure the cap is seated gently so it does not tear through softer, fragile baits.
Troubleshooting
Cap slides off the floss
Ensure you are 'blobbing' the floss ends sufficiently with a lighter to create a secure knot or stopper.
Difficulty threading floss through the cap
Use a pair of fine-point forceps or a specialized threading needle to pull the floss through the eye of the cap.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These caps are designed specifically for use with standard fishing Bait Floss. They are compatible with most boilie sizes and textures. For maintenance, keep the caps in their original container to prevent loss, as their small size makes them easy to misplace in a tackle box. Ensure your hands are dry when handling the floss and lighter to maintain control over the melting process. No specialized cleaning is required, but rinsing them in fresh water after use in silty or weedy environments will keep them in top condition.
