The Korda Krank has become synonymous with catching carp, since Tom Dove first came up with the concept in 2014. Showcased across the world in shows like Monster Carp and countless Masterclass and Thinking Tackle films. The awesome Krank X is now available in the Essentials range. The Krank’s unique shape features a very wide gape with a short, curved shank. However, the keep difference with this hook, is the offset point, massively increasing the hooking potential. Used almost exclusively by Tom and Spooner on their Spinner Rigs, this hook has counted for huge numbers of their captures over recent years. Manufactured using our 'X' gauge wire, this version of the Krank X is extremely strong and durable, complemented by an unobtrusive black nickel finish. This hook is suitable for many fishing situations across the UK and Europe. The hook's point is sharp and durable and in many situations allowing you to catch multiple fish on the same hook – we always advise checking it after each fish and replace if necessary. The Essentials Story: “BASIX has evolved into Korda Essentials. Originally, I designed the range to go with the Back to Basix Masterclass, but in recent years, we've realised something. BASIX isn't really basic anymore. The range has grown so much, the kit is so good, that it was befitting a better name, and we felt Essentials was exactly it. It's all the gear you need and nothing that you don't. Whether you've just started carp fishing or you've been fishing for big 'uns for 20 years, it will stand up to the job.” Danny F The Korda Essentials range offers reliable, good-quality tackle without spending more than you need to. Built around simple methods and accessible products, the range gives anglers everything they need to fish safely, effectively and confidently, without overcomplicating things or requiring them to buy unnecessary components. Korda Essentials makes good carp fishing tackle more accessible to youngsters, new anglers, occasional anglers and those on a limited budget. It ensures everyone has the tackle they need to catch fish just as well, if not better, than the angler next to them.
