The system works by employing a pressure-release function, not seen in the angling world until now. The latched lead clip will open once a hooked fish pulls against the angler, allowing the lead to drop free.

Fused plastic leaders that have been tinted to precisely match the lake bed. They feature two tungsten bands along their length, which help to pin your tackle to the lake bed in the area of your rig.

The Heli-Safe also allowed anglers to fish in this way quickly and effectively, simply by attaching a lead to the system, and the product did the rest, releasing the lead as soon as your hook link swivel pulled against the top of the bead.

These Dark Matters leaders incorporate Korda's Heli-Safe System and can be fished with any helicopter style set-up, whether that be a conventional hook link or a chod rig. This leader has tungsten collars impregnated into it, to ensure it stays pinned to the bottom.

Each leader is constructed from our incredibly tough and fast-sinking Kable leadcore, with a Size 8 Ring Swivel spliced to one end of it and a spliced loop at the other end so that it can quickly be attached and detached from your main line as required.

By threading a Barrel Bead onto the leader above the Heli Safe, you will prevent the lead from discharging, should you pick up weed or other detritus on the retrieve. The unique design enables the angler to choose when to drop the lead, and when to retain it.

The combination of a very short hook link and large lead would often result in dropped fish. The demand from anglers to produce a drop-off lead system for use in these situations pushed us to develop the product you see before you.

This conversion kit allows the Heli-Safe System to be used on Dark Matter or Kamo rig tube whilst retaining all of the usual features of a traditional helicopter set-up PLUS giving you the ability to drop the lead if you need to.
