With the popularity of the chod rig approach in recent years it made sense for ESP to complement it’s range of terminal tackle with a bespoke selection of top quality fluoro pop-ups.
With chod rigs and various other pop up rigs generally incorporating large hooks prolonged buoyancy and a hard texture to prevent water ingress and swelling were vitally important in the make up of the pop up mix ingredients.
So a mix was developed incorporating a high percentage of micro-spheres which give the bait their excellent buoyancy, plus egg albumen which binds the other ingredients tightly so once dried and cured the baits go very hard. This prevents swelling and water ingress even when the baits are pierced rather than tied on with floss.
A chod rig incorporating a size 5 stiff rigger will hold up a 15mm pop up for days on end whilst the 12mm are excellent when combined with size 8s or used to balance bottom baits as part of a snowman rig.
So with the mix perfected we paid special attention to the attractor combinations. The range contains a few tried and trusted classics plus a couple that are a little more unusual.
