FAQs

How many come in a pack?

Each pack contains 8 individual tail rubbers.

Are these compatible with other brands of lead clips?

While they might fit, they are specifically designed for the PB Products Hit & Run system to ensure consistent release pressure.

Can I use these with heavy leads?

Yes, they are designed to be robust, but ensure the lead weight is compatible with your overall tackle and local regulations.

Do I need to lubricate the rubber for easier release?

No, lubrication is generally not recommended as it can cause the rubber to slip off prematurely.

What is the primary benefit of the wide throughput?

It prevents the leader knot from hanging up inside the tail rubber, which is crucial for a free-running system and safe lead ejection.

Troubleshooting

Tail rubber pulls off too easily during the cast

Ensure the lead clip and tail rubber are from the same product series and check that the rubber is pushed fully onto the clip notch.

Lead does not eject during a snagged situation

Check that the leader knot is not getting stuck inside the rubber and ensure the rubber is not pushed on too far; try adjusting the depth it is pushed onto the clip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ensures smooth leader knot passage during retrieve or release
  • Promotes fish safety by facilitating reliable lead ejection
  • Highly durable construction resists tearing and deformation
  • Maintains a neat, streamlined appearance on the line
  • Provides a consistent and secure fit on standard Hit & Run lead clips

Cons

  • Requires specific PB Products components for full system compatibility
  • May not be suitable for ultra-heavy duty leads that require tighter tension settings
  • Replacement frequency depends on the frequency of lead ejection

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your rig, slide the tail rubber onto the leader after the lead clip has been positioned. Ensure your leader knot is trimmed close to allow for the smoothest passage through the rubber's wide internal bore. These tail rubbers are designed primarily for use with the PB Products lead clip range; using them with generic or incompatible clips may result in either a lead that releases too easily or one that fails to eject at all. Regarding care, inspect the rubber for signs of fatigue or micro-tears after particularly intense sessions or snag-heavy retrieves. If the rubber becomes loose, it is recommended to replace it to maintain the integrity of the release tension.
