Product Information
Full details
The Thinking Anglers Tungsten Tubing in Green is an essential component for carp anglers who demand a reliable, anti-tangle solution for their terminal tackle. Designed for those who prioritize a low-profile presentation that hugs the lakebed, this heavy-weight, 1.5mm diameter tubing is remarkably supple and easy to thread. While it provides excellent sinking properties and tangle prevention, users should note that the 2-meter length per packet requires careful management to ensure enough material for multiple rig setups.

Troubleshooting
Difficulty threading line through the tubing
Ensure you are using a smooth, thin-gauge splicing needle and that the tubing is not kinked before attempting to feed the line.
Tubing won't sit flat on the bottom
Check that the length used is sufficient and there is no debris caught inside the tubing that could create a memory effect.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To setup, slide your main line through the internal bore of the tubing using a dedicated long-shank splicing needle. The 1.5mm diameter is compatible with most standard lead clips and tail rubbers available in the Thinking Anglers range. For care, ensure the tubing is inspected after each session, particularly after catching fish from snaggy or rocky swims, as sharp debris can compromise the surface. Rinse with fresh water after fishing to remove silt or lake debris, and store in a cool, dry place to prevent the material from becoming brittle over time.
