The Heli-Safe system is ideal for use with any helicopter-style setup, whether using a conventional rig or a chod, and is now available on a pre-tied leader. These 50cm leaders are constructed from the new Tight Weave Kable Leadcore and are ready to use straight out of the box.
The 50cm versions are not only perfect for securing everything to the lakebed and protecting fish from line damage during the fight, but are also absolutely perfect for long-distance casting. This type of leader has excellent anti-tangle properties but is also very safe for fish as it incorporates the Mini Heli-Safe system—a more compact version of the original—and ensures the lead will release whenever necessary. It also incorporates our No-Trace safety system, which ensures that, in the event of a break in the main line, the hook link can easily release from the leader. Each pack contains two spare No-Trace beads (these can also be purchased separately when you need more).
The No-Trace safety system's top rubber can be positioned close to the lead when fishing over clean water or moved to the other end of the leader when fishing over weed or debris, especially with chods. The Mini Heli-Safe can be set up in several ways depending on the fishing situation, with the standard spring releasing the lead with minimal pressure and ensuring it drops when caught, which is great for thick weed. Alternatively, it can be replaced with the red spring (two supplied), designed for waters generally free of snags and weeds and where you only want the lead to drop if it gets stuck.
There's also the option to add a collar (two are supplied), meaning the lead will never be ejected, but if it breaks, the fish can still escape thanks to the No-Trace Safety System. Using a size 11 QC Ring swivel allows you to quickly and easily change rigs, and a spliced ring on one end makes it easy to connect to the main line—the loop-to-loop style is the quickest and easiest. Leadcore Kable Heli-Safe leaders are available in a choice of Gravel Brown or Weed/Silt, with two per pack, and also come with: 2 x spare No-Trace Beads; 2 x Mini Heli-Safe collars; 2 x red Mini Heli-Safe springs.
