Product Information
Full details
The Korda Krank Loop Rigs are designed for carp anglers looking to streamline their tackle setup with a high-performance combi-rig component. These short-braided sections feature the aggressive Krank hook pattern, offering excellent hooking potential and reliability. They are ideal for anglers who want a quick, secure connection to a Boom section, though it is important to note that these are specifically sized for use with matching components and may require some familiarity with loop-to-loop connections to maximize effectiveness.

FAQs
Are these rigs suitable for pop-up baits?
Yes, the Krank pattern is excellent for both bottom baits and pop-ups, though the presentation may require additional counter-weighting depending on the bait size.
How many rigs come in a pack?
Each pack contains 3 ready-tied Krank Loop Rigs.
Can I use these without a boom section?
They are specifically designed to be loop-to-looped onto a boom to create a combi-rig; using them independently is not recommended as it will alter the intended mechanics.
Is the hook sharp out of the packet?
Yes, these feature premium Korda hooks that come sharp and ready for immediate use.
What does the 'Size 6' refer to?
The size 6 refers to the dimensions of the hook itself, which is a medium-sized hook suitable for standard boilie setups.
Is the braid coated or uncoated?
These are constructed from a special purpose semi-stiff braid that provides a balance between suppleness and rigidity.
Troubleshooting
The rig tangles during casting.
Ensure the boom material is sufficiently stiff and the loop-to-loop connection is tight. Consider using a small PVA nugget on the hook point to prevent entanglement.
The loop connection is difficult to pass through.
Ensure you are using a thin-gauge boom material or a dedicated loop connection tool to facilitate the feed-through process.
Pros and Cons

- Aggressive hook profile increases hooking efficiency
- Durable, semi-stiff braid material prevents tangles

Cons
- Requires a compatible boom section to function effectively
- Limited to three rigs per pack
- Specific to size 6, offering less versatility than custom-tied rigs
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use these rigs, ensure you have a stiff material such as a Korda Boom available to create the main boom section. Simply pass the loop of the Krank rig through the loop on your boom, then pass the hook through the loop of the rig to secure it. After use, inspect the braid for any signs of fraying or fatigue. Rinse the hook in fresh water if fishing in silty or abrasive environments to maintain the sharpness of the point. Store the rigs in a rig case to ensure they remain straight and protected between sessions.
