Korda DARK MATTER Ready Rigs
Dark Matter Rigs
A lot of thought has gone into this set-up, with Korda’s Neil Spooner having used it for years to perfect it, and it is his ‘take anywhere rig’ that he has used to great effect to land carp of all different sizes!
The Wide Gape hook pattern is incredible in terms of it’s hooking potential anyway, but has been enhanced even more by the addition of a short length of shrink tube that helps to make the hook turn even more aggressively when in a carp’s mouth, and a small piece of silicon tubing on the shank of the hook ensures the hair comes off at the optimum point.
The rig comes supplied with free extender hair stops, meaning that it is compatible with all different sized baits, and allows you to effectively change the length of the hair and separation between your bait and hook simply by using a different type of bait stop.
It is tied on Dark Matter braid which is heavy and sinks incredibly well, meaning that it hugs the contours of the lake bed – although being a braid it can help avoid any chance of a tangle if you add a PVA bag or stringer when you cast out.
Different breaking strains of Dark Matter braid have been chosen to make them suitable for the size of hook – with size 8 and size 10 rigs coming on 15lb breaking strain; size 4 and size 6 are on 20lb; and size 2 on 30lb.
All of the hook sizes come barbed, and the other end of the hook link is finished with a size 8 swivel attached loop style, and this means that it will fit all the popular lead arrangements, and can also be used on the Kwik Link or QC Swivel.

matthew szot06/11/2023, 05:21 AMI wanted to like these. Bought a bunch of them due to not tying in a while. They cheaped out on the hooks and they bent/break off of mid teen sized fish. Looks like the line is made from the Korda dark matter line. Between their kamurka hooks and these, I’m steering clear in the future of these rigs/hooks.

Keith Moeller09/04/2019, 07:01 PMI bought 3 different brands of pre tied rigs. I noticed I kept having problems with the one brand. I never had one of the Korda rigs fail me. Caught two 19 lb carp in a lot of seaweed.
