Product Information
Full details
The Evolve Tackle Leader Heli Kit (EVO036) is an essential component system for carp anglers who rely on helicopter and chod rigs when using leadcore or similar thick-diameter leaders. Designed to prioritize fish safety, this kit provides a customizable bead release system that ensures the lead disconnects effectively while maintaining smooth rig mechanics, though users should be prepared to spend a moment calibrating the tension settings for their specific weight sizes before casting.

FAQs
Can I use this with monofilament leaders?
This kit is designed specifically for leadcore and similar diameter leaders; it may not provide the same performance or security on thin monofilament.
Are the tungsten beads safe for the environment?
Yes, the beads are made from high-density tungsten rubber which is safe for underwater use.
How do I know which release setting to use?
Use the lightest setting for standard weights and shorter distances; increase the tension if you are using heavy leads or fishing at extreme range.
Do I need special tools to install this?
No special tools are required, though a sharp knife is recommended for trimming the buffer sleeves.
Does the dark camo finish fade?
The finish is integrated into the material and is highly durable, though it may show slight wear after extensive use over sharp gravel.
Troubleshooting
Bead releases too easily during the cast
Adjust the bead to a tighter release setting or check if the sleeve needs to be pushed slightly further onto the bead.
Swivel is not moving freely over the base
Ensure the leader is not kinked under the bead and check that the base is not obstructed by debris.
Buffer sleeve feels too long for the rig
Use the provided external cutting guide to trim the sleeve to the desired length using sharp scissors or a knife.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Highly adjustable release tension for improved fish safety
- Tungsten-weighted for better bottom presentation
- Easy to customize length with clear cutting guides
- Tapered design facilitates smooth line flow
Cons
- Requires manual setup to calibrate release tension
- Limited to leadcore and specific leader diameters
- Small components may be difficult to manage in low light
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, thread your leader through the long tapered base first, followed by the bead, and finally secure the buffer sleeve. When using the cutting guides, always use a sharp, clean blade to ensure a flush finish on the buffer sleeve; this prevents the line from snagging during a fight. The kit is specifically engineered for leadcore and similar heavy-diameter leaders. After each session, inspect the tungsten rubber for signs of wear, particularly if you have been fishing over abrasive gravel or snaggy terrain, and rinse with fresh water to remove grit from the swivel-flow areas.
