Watch Korda boss Danny Fairbrass publicly apologises to Tom Dove for not using the Tackle Safe sooner. The team at Korda doesn't always agree on everything, items are released from us now and again that certain team members love and others may not initially love.

The Tackle Safe fits into the Korda Compac 140 storage system.

The TackleSafe is the latest addition to our terminal tackle and rig storage range, and is set to become just as popular as the existing RigSafe and ChodSafe products.

It’s a compact end tackle system, complete with a ruler and soft-touch, non-slip outer coating, and is perfect for storing the essentials you need quick and easy access to. In the base section (the deeper half) you have an open compartment, perfectly sized to accommodate spools of hook link materials, as well as a pair of scissors and a Pulla Rig Toolz.

Either side of this central area, you have compartments designed to hold lead clips, tail rubbers, or similar – each with a flip lid that clips into place so that they can’t spill out, yet is easily opened when needed. On the opposite side (the shallower half of the magnetic clam-shell design) you have a number of compartments suited to the smaller metal items we carry, such as rig rings and swivels. Placed centrally are two larger compartments - the first of which is big enough to hold a number of packets of hooks, and the second is for baiting needles, shrink tube, anti-tangle sleeves, or similar.

Preparation between sessions is something that is rarely discussed in the carp fishing world, but is something that I consider can be important. These days we all accept that location is king, but once the carp are located and the rigs are in place, what else can we do to help maximise results?
