A staple of the Essentials range, the Splicing Needle. Purpose-built for anglers who prefer to tie their own Leadcore Leaders, delivering the precision and reliability needed to get the job done quickly and efficiently every time.

The fine gated latch is designed to grip the leadcore firmly enough to guide it cleanly through the splice, ensuring smooth, consistent loops without the frustration of the needle snagging the delicate fibres.

Probably the most versatile needle in the Essentials range, for those who favour smaller hookbaits, it doubles as a fine latch needle too.

A true all-rounder at a price that makes it an essential addition to any tackle box.

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.
