The most robust needle in the Essentials needle range, the Heavy Latch Needle is built for anglers who regularly fish with harder, denser baits that demand a little more force and durability to mount effectively.

Its heavier gauge tip allows it to drive cleanly through tougher baits with ease, while the precision latched gate keeps the hair securely in place throughout the threading process, releasing cleanly once the bait is in position.

A powerhouse of a needle, at a price that won't give you a second thought about adding it to your tackle box.

The Essentials Story:

“BASIX has evolved into Korda Essentials. Originally, I designed the range to go with the Back to Basix Masterclass, but in recent years, we've realised something. BASIX isn't really basic anymore. The range has grown so much, the kit is so good, that it was befitting a better name, and we felt Essentials was exactly it. It's all the gear you need and nothing that you don't. Whether you've just started carp fishing or you've been fishing for big 'uns for 20 years, it will stand up to the job.” Danny F

The Korda Essentials range offers reliable, good-quality tackle without spending more than you need to. Built around simple methods and accessible products, the range gives anglers everything they need to fish safely, effectively and confidently, without overcomplicating things or requiring them to buy unnecessary components.

Korda Essentials makes good carp fishing tackle more accessible to youngsters, new anglers, occasional anglers and those on a limited budget. It ensures everyone has the tackle they need to catch fish just as well, if not better, than the angler next to them.
