The Korda Dumpy Pear Swivel Fishing Lead boasts the classic pear lead shape that will help anglers cast a very very long way. Korda promised that the lead can reach almost as far as the Distance Casting and it is less affected by crosswinds because the shape is very condensed.

The Pear lead from Korda is suited to most Carp Fishing situations when fishing anything up to the very limit of your casting ability. The dumpy shape can be used to your advantage in silt.

Korda suggests that carp anglers should try using a very light pear lead (1oz or 2oz) and actually let the lead plug into the silt as this will dramatically increase the resistance to a moving carp so what feels like a light lead in your hand is transformed into a heavy lead in the fishing situation.

Thanks to the lead's large rounded end it makes 'feeling' the lead hit the bottom easier than more slender or pointed shapes. If you are new to this technique this lead will make the job easier. The pear lead is also ideal in a solid PVA bag because it can be pushed down into one of the corners. This makes the bag nose heavy and so more accurate.
