Korum Speci Heli Kits - Can they be reused?

[Mike Window]

I have been given some Korum Speci Heli Kits which I have started to use for feeder fishing on lakes but is there any way they can be reused as once
the line has been pulled through when packing up there seems to be no way to use them again as it is impossoble to rethread them ?

Yes, tie a loose granny knot, pass some similar BS line through it, tighten the granny knot onto the line. Then wet the line and knot and slide down the heli kit over knot onto the spare line, reverse to pit back on line.

Thanks Jon
Will try that after my next trip remembering to leave enough line running through the kit

I have used these. Beware of the heli bead which I find splits in half under pressure.

Unless you use one of these, it's very frustrating trying to rethread heli rigs or tubing.

I just use a quick change swivel between a couple of Drennan Grippa stops or float stops . Works out much cheaper than buying korum kits ..

Yep…big grippa stops, diamond eye quick change swivels and twizzle top part of your hooklink - basically tangle proof
