Product Information

Full details

The Nash Waxed Bait Floss is an essential component for carp anglers who prioritize secure and professional hookbait presentations. It is specifically engineered to grip cork ball pop-ups, ensuring your rig remains intact during aggressive casting or long-term submersion. While its performance is excellent for securing pop-ups, users should handle the flame-sealing process with care to avoid damaging the bait's outer structure.

FAQs

How many metres of floss are on the spool?

Each spool contains 50 metres of Nash Waxed Bait Floss.

Can this be used for other baits besides pop-ups?

While it is designed specifically for cork ball pop-ups, it can be used for other hookbaits that require a secure tie-on method.

Does the white colour spook fish?

Because the floss is melted into the bait skin, the colour is typically hidden, and the small amount remaining is generally not considered a deterrent to carp.

Is this material reusable?

No, once the floss is tied and heat-sealed, it should be cut away and replaced when changing your hookbait.

What is the primary benefit of the wax coating?

The wax adds friction to the knots, preventing them from loosening during the cast or while in the water.

Troubleshooting

Knot is slipping during casting

Ensure you are using at least three wraps in your knot and that you have pulled the floss tight enough to indent the bait slightly.

Floss is burning instead of melting

Hold the flame further away from the floss. The heat should be enough to melt the wax and plastic fibers without direct contact with the fire.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior grip on cork ball pop-ups
  • Melts cleanly into bait skin for a natural presentation
  • Generous 50m spool offers high value
  • Waxed texture ensures knots do not slip

Cons

  • Requires a lighter for optimal finishing
  • Not intended for general purpose fishing line
  • Requires practice to master the flame-sealing technique

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your rig, cut a small section of floss, pass it through your pop-up using a baiting needle, and tie it securely to your bait screw or rig ring. Once the knot is secure, trim the excess floss and apply a gentle flame from a lighter until the floss flattens against the bait surface. Store the spool in your terminal tackle box away from direct heat or harsh chemicals to maintain the consistency of the wax coating. The floss is compatible with all standard pop-ups and pop-up pellets used in modern carp fishing.
