Since featuring on the Korda Underwater series filmed at Norton Disney, the buzz around these Shot on the Hook weights has been immense and there’s been a massive resurgence around the use of this rig since the film was launched.
The Shot on the Hook improves the hooking potential of any wafter, bottom bait or snowman rig, essentially creating a heavier point to enable the hook to grab hold, ensuring quick and efficient hook holds, turning more pick-ups into bites.
These hook attachments are created from pure tungsten, which provides an exceptional density-to-volume ratio. This high density, pure tungsten allowed us to achieve substantial weight while using minimal material, creating a compact yet appropriately weighted Shot on the Hook.
This reusable pure tungsten shot can be used over and over. It features a small rubber moulding that fits over the hook point to secure your shot in place. When it's time to switch hooks, simply slide it off if you're using barbless hooks, or if you're using barbed hooks, crush the barb first before removing.
Danny Fairbrass: “Nothing in recent years has made more difference to my bottom bait catch rate. I wanted to rush it out, but Damian and the product team outvoted me to make something ‘special’. I’m very pleased to be overruled on this occasion as the end result is an easy-to-use and reusable product that suits any kind of bottom bait or wafter rig, from plastic corn on a size 8 to a 24mm boilie on a size 2.”
The Shot on the Hook comes in three sizes: 0.30g, 0.40g and 0.50g, and are supplied in a convenient slide top storage compartment with ten shots per pack.
DF's Insight: 0.3g is ideal for hook sizes 8 to 4 and baits up to 14mm.
0.4g suits 16–18mm baits with hook sizes 6, 4, and 2.
0.5g is for large baits (20–24mm) and big hooks. The lighter the bait, the less force the carp uses to suck it in – so lighter weights allow for better hook-ups.
