Korda COG (Centre Of Gravity) System

Kit includes 3 lead clips, 3 tail rubbers and 3 leadcore links with Kwik Links.

COG stands for Centre of Gravity, in reference to the unique way that the hook link is attached to the heaviest part of the lead, giving instant, unparalleled hooking. Designed to convert more pick-ups into fish on the bank.

In order to truly take advantage of the unique attributes of the COG, you need to be aware of its limitations. Crucially, it must be used with tubing or leadcore, although effective with more supple links, it’s more suited to the stiffer hook links, such as IQ, Hybrid Stiff and N-Trap Semi Stiff. They help to eliminate tangles and kick that hook bait away from the COG, ensuring that fish feel the full hooking impact of the system immediately. To aid the kicking-away process, Korda recommend that you give critically balanced ‘wafter’ hook baits a go with stiff-rig setups.

It’s best used over firm lake beds like gravel, sand and firm silt, rather than weed, when you’re better to reach for the Heli-Safe system. Can be cast every bit as far as a normal lead clip system, although when going for extreme range, it’s worth dispensing with any PVA bags as the impact could force the half-swivel out of the lead. For margin work and placing from boats, i’ts simply unrivalled.

There are 2 lead shapes, flat pear & distance, which should cover most fishing situations. The flat pear is best used for closer range, lowering or dropping from a boat, whereas the distance is the one to reach for if you’re having to go long for your fish.
strong>One point well worth noting is that the COG boom sections are numbered (on the swivel) because it’s essential that they are used with the correct lead. If you use the wrong boom with the wrong lead, the setup simply won’t work as intended.
