Product Information
Full details
The Korda Dark Matter Tubing in Brown is designed for anglers seeking to create highly effective and camouflaged fishing rigs. Its primary benefit is its exceptional weight and limpness, allowing it to perfectly hug the lakebed and disappear from a fish's view. A potential caveat is that its specific coloration, while effective, might require matching to very precise lakebed conditions for optimal concealment.

Troubleshooting
Tubing is difficult to thread.
Ensure you are using a suitable threading tool like a rig puller or fine wire. Slightly wetting the end of the line or tubing can sometimes help.
Tubing does not lie flat on the lakebed.
Check for any kinks or damage in the tubing. Ensure you are using the correct weight of terminal tackle and that the tubing is not being lifted by currents or debris.
Color does not match the lakebed.
Consider using Korda's Dark Matter Tungsten Putty to further camouflage the tubing, swivels, and connections. If possible, observe the lakebed conditions and select the most appropriate tubing color (Weed Green, Silt, or Gravel Brown).

Korda Dark Matter Tubing is designed for straightforward integration into your rigs. Its primary use is as a leader or to run your main line through, preventing tangles and concealing your line near the rig. Thread your main line or leader material through the tubing using a rig puller or a fine piece of wire.
Compatibility:
