Korda Kamakura Choddy Hooks (Barbless)

Korda Kamakura Choddy Hooks (Barbless) – Carp Hooks for Stiff Pop-Up Rigs

The Korda Kamakura Choddy Barbless hooks are specialized carp hooks designed for stiff pop-up presentations such as chod rigs and hinged stiff rigs. They feature the precise Kamakura sharpening process, delivering an exceptionally thin and aggressive point without the need for manual sharpening.

Kamakura Sharpening Technology – Ultra-Precise Hook Point

The Kamakura process is one of the most advanced sharpening methods used in carp fishing. It removes a microscopic amount of metal from each hook, resulting in a point as sharp as hand-sharpened hooks. This precision ensures instant penetration on the strike and enhances the effectiveness of pop-up rigs, where the fish’s suction force is often minimal.

Choddy Design with Outward Bent Eye

The Choddy model is engineered specifically for rigs with stiff hooklinks. The eye is noticeably bent outward, creating a natural extension of the rig’s curvature and stabilizing the hook’s movement. The rest of the shape is based on the proven Wide Gape profile, but uses slightly thicker wire to improve resistance against twisting and deformation when playing large carp.

Blade Protection and Safe Storage

Due to the ultra-thin, micro-damage-prone point, each hook is coated with a drop of protective wax, which is removed just before use to keep the point in perfect condition. The hooks are housed in a box with individual slots that prevent them from rubbing against each other or becoming blunt accidentally.

Barbless Version – Secure Holding with Minimal Invasiveness

The barbless version ensures easy fish release while meeting the requirements of many commercial fisheries. The combination of the hook’s curvature, precise sharpening, and well-chosen geometry provides stable holding power despite the lack of a barb.
